The food and beverage testing kits market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $23.29 billion in 2025 to $24.93 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to manual and traditional testing methods, limited availability of rapid testing kits, rising foodborne illness cases, increasing regulatory requirements for food safety, reliance on laboratory-based testing equipment.
The food and beverage testing kits market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $36.39 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.9%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to technological advancements in portable testing devices, growing adoption of rapid testing technologies, increased demand for GMO and pesticide detection, expansion of processed food and beverage industry, integration of cloud-based data management and analytics. Major trends in the forecast period include growing demand for rapid food and beverage testing, increased focus on pathogen and contaminant detection, adoption of portable and on-site testing devices, expansion of quality control in dairy, meat, and seafood, rising use of consumables and sample collection kits.
The expansion of the food industry is increasingly supporting the growth of the food and beverage testing kits market going forward. The food industry represents a vast global network involved in food production, processing, packaging, distribution, retail, and catering. As food supply chains become more complex and globalized, ensuring food safety has become increasingly critical. Food and beverage testing kits help detect chemical, microbiological, and physical contaminants, ensuring compliance with safety standards. For example, in June 2023, according to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, global cereal stocks were projected to rise by 1.7% to reach a record 873 million tons, while coarse grain production increased by 3% year over year to 1.51 billion tons, and global sugar consumption rose by 0.9% during the 2022-2023 season. As a result, the expanding food industry is reinforcing demand for food and beverage testing kits.
Leading companies operating in the food and beverage testing kits market are increasing their focus on digitalization to improve efficiency, transparency, and sustainability while gaining a competitive advantage. Digitalization in food testing involves applying digital tools to improve food safety, quality monitoring, and regulatory compliance. For example, in June 2023, the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI), an India-based statutory body, launched the Rapid Food Testing Kit (RAFT) portal. This digital platform streamlines application processing, certification, and renewals under the RAFT scheme, enabling paperless operations and encouraging the adoption of advanced food testing technologies.
In October 2024, Mérieux NutriSciences, a US-based food safety company offering testing, auditing, consulting, training, and research services, acquired the Worldwide Food Testing Business from Bureau Veritas for €360 million ($388.38 million). This acquisition strengthens Mérieux NutriSciences’ global footprint, expands its testing capabilities, and enhances its ability to deliver comprehensive food safety and quality services across multiple markets.
