The Market Research Future (MRFR) study on the Global Food Fortification industry (2020-2030) includes comprehensive primary research and a thorough review of qualitative and quantitative aspects by various industry experts and key opinion leaders to gain valuable insight into market demand and industry performance.

Food fortification is the method of adding micronutrients such as vitamins, proteins, and minerals to food and beverage products to enrich them with nutrients. This market is driven by several factors, such as increased demand for fortified food items, increasing micronutrient malnutrition (iron, folic acid, iodine, vitamin A, and zinc), and anemia in women has grown in an alarming amount. The Gates Foundation, UNICEF, the World Health Organization (WHO) support food fortification as a primary means of enhancing micronutrient health. Among the fortified food segments, fortified dairy and beverage products are expected to rise at the highest rate in the global market for food fortification.

Market Dynamics

With growing market awareness and rising interest in a healthy lifestyle, consumer demand for fortified food is expected to increase during the forecast period. However, as the working population has increased and the demand for convenience food has increased in recent years, key players are investing in R&D for new fortified food product lines, such as breakfast cereals, which are now fortified with various minerals and vitamins to meet the daily nutrient requirements. Trending balanced diets, healthier lifestyles, and changing patterns of consumption are projected to drive market growth from 2016 to 2022.
