Asia Pacific Food Allergen Testing Market  Size and Growth Analysis

Asia Pacific Food Allergen Testing Market Overview:

Food allergies have affected nearly every person at some point in their lifetime. A food allergy leads to hypersensitivity of the body’s immune system. It involves abnormal responses generated by the immune system upon ingestion of certain kinds of food. The most common food allergens found in food allergy or intolerance testing are cow’s milk, peanuts, eggs, seafood, shellfish, soy, wheat, and tree nuts such as almonds, Brazil nuts, cashews, and pine nuts, pistachios, and walnuts. According to the World Allergen Organization (WAO), food allergies affect 220 - 250 million people worldwide. In the last few decades, the Asia-Pacific market for food allergy and intolerance products has gone from being a niche space to the mainstream. As the number of people suffering from food allergies is increasing, the market is witnessing promising growth.

The market is primarily driven by the implementation of strict food safety regulations, increasing allergic reactions among customers and international trade of food materials. Until a few years ago, the sales of food for people suffering from food intolerance were confined mostly to specialized wellness shops and pharmacies. However, that situation has since experienced a change with a few mainstream retail stores now offering these items. Due to the rise in the popularity of such products, there has been an expansion in the product pipeline as well. This has led to large multi-retail players launching their own name brands selling gluten-free foods. The market is witnessing a plethora of bakery items, sauces, cereals, pizzas, and meat items. Supermarkets have begun to advertise intolerant foods on the internet to gain new customers. Moreover, the increase in awareness and popularity of intolerance foods has led many restaurants into offering allergen-free food items on their menus. The growth of the Asia-Pacific food allergens and intolerance testing market has thus taken off. Gluten- and wheat-free products are thus making advances into the mainstream food and beverages industry. Apart from those suffering from food-related intolerance and allergies, many individuals are opting for specialized food for general health and well-being reasons.
