Organic Bakery Products Global Market Report 2024

The organic bakery products market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $11.56 billion in 2023 to $12.15 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.1%. The growth observed in the historical period can be ascribed to shifts in consumer lifestyles, increased environmental awareness, government regulations and certifications, the expanded retail presence of organic products, and innovations in organic ingredients.

The organic bakery products market size is expected to see steady growth in the next few years. It will grow to $14.37 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.3%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be associated with educational campaigns, the expansion of e-commerce, advancements in organic farming, the clean label movement, an increase in plant-based alternatives, and the globalization of organic food markets. Noteworthy trends expected in the forecast period include a surge in consumer demand for clean label products, a heightened interest in gluten-free and allergen-free options, ongoing innovation in organic ingredients and flavors, an expanding online presence and e-commerce, as well as the broadening of organic bakery offerings in cafés and restaurants.

The increasing preference of consumers for healthier ingredients serves as a major driver for the organic bakery product market. The trend towards healthier living is becoming more prominent due to the challenges of hectic urban lifestyles and the availability of unhealthy eating options, contributing to lifestyle disorders and compromised health. Consequently, manufacturers are compelled to shift towards the incorporation of organic ingredients such as organic baking powder, gluten-free powder, and aluminum-free baking powder to meet evolving consumer preferences. Additionally, the rise in disposable income among the population is expected to further boost the demand for organic bakery products. Trading Economics reports that in 2022, the disposable personal income in India increased to Rs 27,29,95,370 million from Rs 23,85,73,760 in 2021.

The expansion of the food and beverage service industry is anticipated to drive the growth of the organic bakery products market. This industry encompasses various businesses, including restaurants, engaged in preparing, serving, and delivering food and beverages to consumers. The growth of this industry is beneficial for organic bakery products, providing wider distribution channels, increased consumer exposure, and heightened demand for healthier and sustainable food options. It also contributes to raising awareness about the health benefits of organic foods. For instance, in August 2023, USA Today reported that the U.S. restaurant industry achieved $898 billion in sales in 2022, marking a $166.5 billion increase from 2021 sales. Therefore, the expansion of the food and beverage service industry is a significant driver for the organic bakery products market.

Stringent certification and labeling requirements for organic bakery products, governed by rigorous guidelines, pose challenges for the growth of the market. Achieving organic certification involves strict adherence to guidelines, including the prohibition of genetic engineering or irradiation and the use of ingredients listed on the National List of Allowed and Prohibited Substances. In the United States, for example, the production of organic bakery products must be overseen by the United States Department of Agriculture National Organic Program. Consequently, the meticulous compliance with mandatory guidelines and certification requirements presents obstacles to the growth of the organic bakery products market.

The adoption of innovative technology to enhance taste and flavor is a prominent trend in the organic bakery products manufacturing market. Growing consumer preference for organic bakery products, driven by their perceived health benefits, is prompting manufacturers to explore innovative technologies and methods. These efforts aim to introduce new organic bakery products with improved taste and flavor while addressing challenges such as extending shelf life through the use of natural preservatives, ensuring enhanced taste until the point of consumption.

Major companies in the organic products market are concentrating on launching innovative products to meet the rising demand for plant-based and natural bakery items. A notable example is the introduction of plant-based biscuits, which are biscuits or cookies crafted without animal-derived ingredients. Instead of traditional components such as butter or milk, plant-based biscuits typically incorporate alternatives such as non-dairy margarine or egg substitutes. For instance, in May 2022, Prodigy Snacks, a UK-based natural confectionery company, unveiled a new line of plant-based bakery biscuits called phenomenons. These biscuits, available in 'thins' format, include variants such as Prodigy Phenomenoms Chocolate Digestives and Prodigy Phenomenoms Chocolate Oaties. High in prebiotic fiber for gut health support, these biscuits contain zero palm oil, no refined sugars, and are plastic-negative, with a low sugar content. The Prodigy plant-based range utilizes premium, nutrient-rich, and all-natural ingredients, offering wheat-free options coated in cacao-rich chocolate.

In July 2021, Grupo Bimbo SAB de CV, a Mexico-based bakery product manufacturer and marketer, acquired Emmy’s Organics for an undisclosed amount.

Emmy’s Organics Inc., based in the United States, is renowned for producing ultra-premium organic cookies.
