Watered Down: Salad Dressing Demand Has Wavered Amid Changing Consumer Tastes

Over the five years to 2023, the Salad Dressing Production industry has experienced an increase in revenue while simultaneously witnessing a decline in the number of establishments and employment.

Firstly, advancements in technology and automation have led to increased production efficiency, allowing fewer establishments to meet the growing demand. As a consequence, some smaller dressing manufacturers may have been unable to compete and thus had to close their operations, leading to a decline in the number of establishments and subsequently, employment opportunities within the industry. Overall, industry revenue is expected to increase at an annualized rate of 3.3% to $4.2 billion over the five years to 2023, including a 1.2% increase in 2023 alone, when profit is expected to total 5.5%.
