The global bread crumbs industry is on a significant upward trajectory, projected to grow from US$ 987.6 million in 2023 to an impressive US$ 1.96 billion by 2033, reflecting a robust CAGR of 7.1% over the forecast period. This growth is driven by the rising demand for processed and convenience foods, as well as innovative solutions to reduce bread waste.
Bread waste management is a major challenge for bakeries worldwide, often leading to the production of bread crumbs. Researchers have developed novel extrusion cooking methods to efficiently process bread waste into bread crumbs, contributing to market growth. According to the Journal of Cereal Science, bakery products’ estimated wastage ranges from 7% to 10% of total production.
Bread crumbs are increasingly used as a special ingredient in the global food industry, particularly for creating crunchy and crispy coatings in breading formulations for baked or fried food items. This trend is expected to drive the market further in the coming years.
“The bread crumbs market is witnessing remarkable growth due to their versatile applications in the food industry,” opines Nandini Roy Choudhury, Client Partner at Future Market Insights. The ability to reduce bread waste and the increasing demand for convenience foods are key factors propelling this market forward.
