The global food safety testing market is growing as food related issues increased due to the rising incidence of foodborne illness. Business growth is fueled by increased consumer awareness of food safety, increased chemical contamination, and rapid inspection. Additionally, product quality is improving by modifying regulations to reduce the number of people affected by foodborne illnesses such as nausea, food poisoning, and diarrhea. The food and beverage sector has developed in a significant way because of urbanization, rising disposable income, and economic progressions. As imports and exports increase, the levels of pollutants increase due to incorrect control and monitoring, which supports the participation of the industry. Also, as the demand for pesticide residues and other contaminants for fruits and vegetables increases, along with the increase in global fruit and vegetable trades, industrial development will improve during the forecast period. The increasing level of contamination to increase the shelf life of the product is one of the key aspects of adjusting your testing needs on import. The prominent contributors to the global food testing market are seafood, fruits and vegetables, meat, and processed products. Emerging economic trends for processed foods and convenience foods will drive product development along with government initiatives to reduce foodborne illness and business expansion. Intensified competition among service providers has resulted in patent applications for new contaminant detection technologies. Technological developments for implementing reliable and rapid testing technologies are promoting the expansion of the global food testing business.
Numerous licenses for quick innovations, for example, ongoing PCR and immunosorbent measures, show extraordinary development potential in the coming years. The industry said the innovation focused on reducing the time it takes to get test results and improving accuracy. Food supply and quality are at risk across the globe, which is resulting in a surge in the call for food testing. This is because food processors are obstructing industrial growth by skipping routine food inspections to reduce operational food. Also, generous food contamination laws and penalties in developing countries can limit industrial growth. However, as consumer concerns increase, the government has urged actions such as increasing the level of evidence to reduce food contamination and disease outbreaks. Furthermore, the high costs of technology may affect adoption rates in the coming years. Technological innovations and new technological developments have been made in spectroscopy and chromatography, with a focus on reducing delivery times, sample utilization, testing costs, and deficiencies associated with multiple technologies. The increasing implementation of these technologies is supposed to create an opportunity for the services in small and medium laboratories and compete with large players in the industry. These technologies also have other advantages, including high sensitivity, the accuracy of results, reliability, non-target detection with multiple contaminants, and short processing times.
Lack of food management infrastructure can hinder the market growth. The complexity of testing technology and the lack of regulation are expected to hamper the market growth.
The Covid-19 pandemic has affected several industries in a negative way, however it is deemed to influence positively in the food testing industry. The rising need for more healthy and safe foods across the globe is likely to promote players in this market to invest more.
Europe has accounted for a leading portion in the worldwide industry, accounting for almost one-third of the overall revenue in 2018. The increasing food-related ailments among consumers are supposed to fuel the dependence on food testing processes. Also, the implementation of strict regulatory standards in the region is expected to increase the size of the market in the locale. North America has a significant share of the global food safety testing market. A key factor driving the growth of the North American market is strict regulations by governing agencies. The market is also driven by increased production in the North American food sector. The large market in North America is also due to the outbreak of foodborne illness. Food safety testing is essential at all stages of production and processing, ensuring consumers’ food safety and market supply. Microbial testing and GMO testing are the main types of tests conducted in North America. In the North American food testing market, there are several companies like Eurofins Scientific, Intertek, NSF International, etc. Industries in the Asia-Pacific region are expected to record notable benefits from related agency efforts regarding the safety of edible products. The Latin American market is thriving because of the increased call of packaged and processed products. The region was seriously affected by JBS's meat scandals in Brazil, which are expected to further reinforce market growth by implementing strict regulations in the country.
