Food Robotics Market Report 2026

The food robotics market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $2.83 billion in 2025 to $3.16 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.4%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to rising labor shortages in food processing, increasing demand for consistent food quality, growth of packaged food consumption, adoption of industrial robotics, availability of food-grade robotic systems.

The food robotics market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $4.97 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing investments in AI-driven robotics, rising adoption of autonomous food production lines, expansion of ready-to-eat food markets, growing focus on hygienic automation, increasing integration of smart robotics. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing deployment of robotic pick-and-place systems, rising adoption of collaborative robots in food handling, growing integration of vision-guided robotics, expansion of high-speed packaging robots, enhanced focus on food safety automation.

Increasing demand for bakery products is expected to drive the growth of the food blenders and mixers market in the coming years. Bakery products encompass a wide variety of baked items, including bread, cakes, pastries, cookies, muffins, croissants, and bagels. Food blenders and mixers are essential in preparing these products, ensuring efficient and consistent mixing, blending, and kneading of ingredients. For example, in February 2024, a report by Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, a department of the Government of Canada, noted that U.S. retail sales of baked goods rose to $86.64 billion in 2023, up from $82.93 billion in 2022, representing approximately 4.3% growth. Thus, the rising demand for bakery products is boosting the food blenders and mixers market.

Key players in the food blender and mixer market are focusing on product development and launches, such as all-in-one mixing, juicing, boiling, and grinding systems, to maintain their market position. An all-in-one system combines multiple kitchen functions into a single appliance. For instance, in October 2023, Stovekraft, an India-based kitchen appliance company, introduced the Pigeon Nutri Mixer 900, India’s first all-in-one mixing, juicing, boiling, and grinding system. This innovative appliance is designed to streamline cooking by combining the functions of several kitchen devices into one unit. The Pigeon Nutri Mixer 900 provides users with convenience and versatility, enabling mixing, juicing, blending, and grinding with a single appliance. This Made-in-India solution highlights Stovekraft’s commitment to innovation, offering consumers an efficient and multifunctional cooking companion.

In March 2024, Hanwha Foodtech, a South Korea-based online company focused on food processing and technology, acquired Stellar Pizza for an undisclosed sum. Hanwha Foodtech plans to utilize advanced robotics and automation to transform the pizza-making process, improve operational efficiency, and lower labor costs. Stellar Pizza, a technology-driven company based in the U.S., specializes in automated pizza production through the use of robotic systems.
