The global gluten-free bakery market is projected to witness a CAGR of 9.8% during the forecast period (2022-2027).

Consuming gluten products often leads to an immune reaction of the body termed celiac disease. Although eating gluten products do not directly cause a risk of COVID-19, celiac disease can often cause Type 1 diabetes and thyroid in some patients, due to which the patient might be prone to adverse effects if infected by the coronavirus. Hence, consumers have been cautious regarding the consumption of gluten and have preferred gluten-free products to avoid such symptoms and diseases. This presumably pushed up the demand for gluten-free products.

With the rising prevalence of celiac disease in the global population, the preference for a gluten-free diet is increasing among consumers.

Therefore, factors such as these are expected to drive the market studied.
