Bread Production in Australia

Bread production sales figures have risen marginally in recent years. Ongoing changes in consumer preferences have provided opportunities for producers to tap into niche or premium markets, boosting incomes for bread makers. External competition from instore supermarkets bakeries has constrained revenue. Fluctuating input prices have placed downward pressure on revenue growth and limited profit margins. Rising nutritional concerns, particularly relating to carbohydrate consumption, have also negatively affected bread producers. Bread production revenue is expected to rise at an annualised 2.2% over the five years through 2023-24 to total to $3.4 billion. This trend includes an anticipated 0.3% increment in 2023-24.
