Which major factors have contributed to the expansion of the flavor enhancer market?
The growing need for processed meals is expected to propel the growth of the flavor enhancer market going forward. Processed meals are pre-packaged dishes cooked or prepared in advance, often requiring minimal preparation before consumption. With the rise of dual-income households and busy lifestyles, consumers are looking for quick and easy meal options that can be prepared with minimal effort without compromising taste or nutrition, making processed meals a popular choice. Flavor enhancers can reduce the need for excessive salt or sugar while still maintaining taste, thereby helping to extend the shelf life of processed meals without compromising quality. For instance, in 2023, according to the United States Department of Agriculture, a US-based federal agency, the total value of US processed food products exported increased to $38.11 billion in 2022, an increase from $34.19 billion compared to 2021. Therefore, the growing need for processed meals drives the flavor enhancer market.
