Food Safety Testing Market Size, Share, Growth and Global Industry Analysis By Type & Application, Regional Insights and Forecast to 2024-2032
Growth Factors of Food Safety Testing Market
The food safety testing market size was valued at USD 19.81 billion in 2022, and the market is now projected to grow from USD 21.25 billion in 2023 to USD 36.01 billion by 2030, exhibiting a CAGR of 7.82% during the forecast period of 2023-2030.
The COVID-19 was not a major concern to consumers when it comes to food safety before the virus outbreak but the crisis somehow changed the overall consumers’ perception of food safety. This resulted in a rapid elevation of consumer awareness about infrastructure and services in food logistics. First, due to the Covid pandemic, food consumption in the retail segment increased sharply, and shops’ shelves were left empty purchases. Therefore, to prevent contaminated food from being imported, countries began very rigorous testing of local and imported food.
Over the last decade, food safety offences and contaminations or adulterations have increased across the globe, and largely owing to the length of the food chain. This has resulted to higher consumer risks associated with foods products, their labels, ingredients, and safety thus questioning the authenticity of the food products. The Consumer Guidance Society of India stated that only 21% out of the milk samples obtained from Maharashtra complied with the FSSAI requirements. These issues have led to the development of firmer national norms and increased claims from the leading members of the food processing industry for better examination and observation of food safety.
To fill the above gap, there has been a growing need for more accurate point of need food safety testing equipment given that conventional testing requires one to access a lab which may be expensive and time consuming. In response to such challenges, funding from the government and the private sector has boosted the technological drive resulting to portable device for sample collection that does not require transportation to laboratories for analysis. These palm-size equipment’s employ ultraviolet, infrared, and other sensors to identify adulterants, contaminants, and allergies in food articles. For example, in July 2023, Bia Analytical enters a partnership with trinamiX in the development of a portable, rapid testing kit that could detect food fraud the result of which can be view in a connected app for real-time truth.
