The Europe food robotics market was valued at USD 867.20 Million in 2024. The industry is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8.30% during the forecast period of 2025-2034 to attain a valuation of USD 1.92 billion by 2034.
Low payload robots are often used for low payloads such as sorting, packaging, labelling, and inspecting small items or parts in the food industry. They have precision, agility and speed and therefore can be used for delicate handling or intricate tasks. Low payload robots are suitable for tasks such as picking and placing fruits, vegetables, baked products, confectioneries, or small packaged foods.
Growth in the food robotics market in the European region is led by rapid technological innovations and mergers and acquisitions are being implemented by companies in order to gain significant market share. In August 2023, the German food-tech company ‘Circus' acquired ‘Aitme” a culinary robotics startup based in Berlin. The move will help ‘Circus' gain access to cutting-edge kitchen robotics technology.
On the other hand, heavy payload robots can move larger load sizes such as heavier-duty components. These robots are built to lift and move around with massive foodstuffs such as containers, pallets, and equipment. These machines are widely used in food processing plants, in industrial environments including logistics facilities.
