Prepared Food Equipment Market Dynamics:

Driver: Rise in income to drive the demand for prepared & convenience foods

The rise in disposable income due to growth in the economy, especially in emerging countries such as India and China, has led to an increase in demand for prepared & convenience foods. With the rising demand for convenience and ready-to-eat (RTE) food, customers are also concerned about the nutritional and health benefits of such food items before consumption. This is achieved by automating or integrating the overall processes, which help maintain food quality and nutritional value.

Restraints: Increase in demand for minimally processed, healthier organic food products

The rise in the aging population in developed countries has led to an increase in health concerns. There is a high preference for fresh and minimally processed food products without synthetic chemical preservatives. This adversely affects the demand for prepared food equipment as prepared foods are processed with preservatives and other flavoring agents to increase the shelf life and enhance palatability.

Opportunities: Demand for advanced machinery with high productivity and efficiency

Food manufacturers continue to look for advanced machinery and delivery solutions to meet safety standards and increase productivity to meet consumer demand changes. Key players such as GEA Group (Germany), Alfa Laval (Sweden), and Marel (Iceland) in food manufacturing are mostly focused on increasing the level of automation in food processing operations to increase the predictability of preventative maintenance, lead time of processing, and connectivity.

Challenges: Infrastructural challenges in developing countries

The saturated markets of developed economies such as the US, the UK, Germany, and France compel manufacturers of prepared food equipment to search for untapped markets and expand their consumer base. This requires substantial investments in many aspects of business expansion, especially with regard to the establishment of new facilities in developing countries. Setting up large equipment requires larger lands and high manpower, which makes it difficult for manufacturers to set up plants in developing countries due to the lower availability of labor and land.
