Most people consume bread as one of their main foods. They consume it for breakfast and in their daily routine, which boosts the growth of the Europe bread market. Furthermore, in Europe, the total consumption of bread, viennoiserie, and patisserie in the EU 27 countries were estimated to be nearly 39 million tons. The rise in disposable income in the countries and the increase in the consumption rate will contribute to the market's growth. Several companies manufacture bread products in countries where manufacturers are strongly encouraged through campaigns to use bread products. The rise in the adoption of advanced technologies for manufacturing bread and the development of robotics technology supports the manufacturer to produce more bread to cover the maximum area for sales, driving the market demand in Europe. In addition, launching new products in the market with different flavors and textures with healthy ingredients encourages consumers to choose bread products, increasing demand.
Furthermore, there is a greater demand for more bread varieties than ever, with ethnic bread becoming more popular in the UK and more varieties of wholemeal bread with oats, bran, seeds, and so on. There is also a growing trend in many European countries, including Germany and France, to increase the production of sliced and wrapped bread. Morning goods and specialty bread will continue to grow, with plenty of room for innovation.
Europe Bread Market Restraint:
Wheat is used in various products, including bread, pastries, pasta, and others. This critical ingredient is at a 14-year high and is expected to run out soon due to the recent events of the Russian-Ukrainian War. The increase in inflation and the rise in conflict between the nations may hinder the growth of the Europe bread market. Furthermore, the increase in the tax rate is also one factor that impedes the growth of the European bread market as it is more dependent on the production of raw materials and ingredients such as wheat and agriculture production.
