The organic snack food market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $16.68 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.5%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to expansion of personalized nutrition trends, rising demand for sustainable packaging, growth of online organic snack sales, increasing focus on functional snacking, expansion into emerging consumer segments. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing demand for clean-label organic snacks, rising popularity of protein and functional snacks, expansion of plant-based snack offerings, enhanced focus on nutritional transparency, increasing product innovation.

The rising spending capacity of consumers, combined with increasing health consciousness and a growing preference for organic foods, is expected to drive the growth of the organic snack food market over the forecast period. Consumers are increasingly shifting away from conventional snacks due to concerns about their high calorie content, limited nutritional value, and association with rising obesity levels and other health issues. This shift is particularly evident in developing economies such as India and China, where improving income levels are enabling greater spending on premium and health-oriented food products, including organic snacks. For instance, in March 2023, according to China Power, a China-based power-related company, China’s government budget for 2023 included a 5.6% increase in expenditure, resulting in an official projected deficit of nearly RMB 3.9 trillion ($564.1 billion), up 15.1% from 2022. This increase in government spending reflects broader economic expansion and rising consumer purchasing power. Therefore, increasing consumer spending is expected to generate higher demand and support the growth of the organic snack food market during the forecast period.
