Flatbread Market Trends:
Rising Demand for Healthy Foods
Consumers are increasingly looking for convenient meal options. For instance, according to the publisher, the global convenience food market size reached US$ 484.6 Billion in 2023. Looking forward, the publisher expects the market to reach US$ 782.7 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 5.47% during 2024-2032. Flatbreads are often perceived as healthier alternatives to traditional bread due to their typically lower fat content and simpler ingredient lists. These factors are expected to propel the flatbread market in the coming years.Growing Popularity of Plant-Based Ingredients
As more consumers adopt vegan and plant-based diets, there is a rising demand for flatbreads made without animal products. For instance, according to a poll conducted by Rakuten Insight in February 2024, more than 48% of Indian respondents indicated they had consumed plant-based food products due to worries about animal welfare in food production. Furthermore, around 46% choose to pursue a vegetarian or vegan diet. This has led manufacturers to develop flatbreads that use plant-based ingredients, appealing to this growing demographic. These factors further positively influence the flatbread market forecast.Product Innovations
There is a rising demand for whole grain and high-fiber flatbreads due to their perceived health benefits. Various manufacturers are launching low-calorie and high-fiber flatbreads. For instance, in January 2023, Flagship Food Group introduced Carb Cutting tortillas under the labels La Tortilla Factory and Tortilla King. The new tortilla range consists of a zero-carb tortilla, a 4-gram net-carb flour tortilla, and a 4-gram net-carb whole wheat tortilla. These products appeal to health-conscious consumers who are looking for more nutritious alternatives to traditional flatbreads, thereby boosting the flatbread market revenue.Global Flatbread Industry Segmentation:
