According to Future Market Insights (FMI), the bouillon cube market is estimated to be worth USD 6.9 billion in 2024. Global bouillon cube demand is set to progress at a CAGR of 4.5% during the assessment period. By 2034, it is forecast that the market value will have reached USD 10.8 billion.
Bouillon cubes, with their tiny size, are emerging as a supreme convenience food. With work taking over the lives of the young population, there is felt more of a need for convenience food and products like bouillon cubes are stepping in. The product is also enjoying popularity as a snack for children and being a part of school lunches.
Producers are striving to increase consumer confidence in bouillon cubes through the integration of organic ingredients. As the food and beverage sector embraces organic and non-GMO ingredients, all-natural bouillon cubes are all the rage.
Further refining is done through the increase in the manufacture of vegan and vegetarian bouillon cubes. As the clamor for cruelty-free products climbs, the market stands to benefit. Technology advancement to enhance the taste profiles of the products is being looked at heavily.
There are, however, certain factors that limit growth. Some consumers think that considering the size of the product, the price is not worth it. Plastic packaging and the use of preservatives in the making of the product are other obstacles the market has to overcome.
