San Francisco, Calif., USA, May 16, 2023 — /EPR Network/ —

Snacks Industry Overview

The global snacks market is expected to reach USD 1.8 trillion by 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Significant changes in food consumption patterns brought about by pandemic induced lockdowns coupled with collaborations between food delivery partners and snacks manufacturers, together propelled the global market.

Many people have gained weight as a result of sedentary jobs and being at home for prolonged amounts of time. As a result, consumer preferences have shifted away from unhealthy eating and toward healthy snacking. As a result, snack product manufacturers are following this trend and introducing new items that are both tasty and nutritious for consumers. Lifestyle changes, cultural shifts, and rising consumer knowledge and awareness have all had a significant impact on how people eat. Many consumers in Europe and North America prefer to snack throughout the day, creating tremendous potential for manufacturers.
