Middle East and Africa Kitchen Knives Market – Overview

Kitchen knives are indispensable instruments that provide several benefits over standard knives, including effortless handling, efficient slicing and chopping, and improved precision. The use of kitchen knives has been on the rise due to the growing number of individuals pursuing cooking as a profession and the emergence of cafeterias in schools, colleges, and workplaces. Manufacturers are emphasizing the creation of durable, safer, and budget-friendly products, thereby augmenting their usage. Furthermore, the surging trend of street food and the expanding number of restaurants have stimulated the demand for kitchen knives, with numerous chefs opting to use them instead of conventional knives.

Impact of COVID-19 on Middle East and Africa Kitchen Knives Market

COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on the Middle East and Africa kitchen knives market. The outbreak has resulted in a decline in demand for kitchen knives due to the temporary closure of restaurants and other commercial kitchens. Furthermore, the pandemic has caused supply chain disruptions, which have led to delays in the delivery of raw materials and finished products. This has resulted in increased prices and reduced availability of kitchen knives. However, the pandemic has also changed consumer behavior, with more people cooking at home, which has increased the demand for kitchen knives in the retail market.

Middle East and Africa Kitchen Knives Market – By Cutting Edge

Based on cutting edge, Middle East and Africa kitchen knives market is divided into Plain, Granton, and Serrated segments. The plain segment held the highest market share due to the wide range of applications for plain kitchen knives, which are commonly used for chopping, slicing, skinning, dicing, and mincing, making them popular for both residential and commercial purposes. While plain-blade kitchen knives are widely used by homemakers, chefs, and other food makers, the serrated kitchen knives segment is expected to experience the fastest growth rate during the forecast period.
