Peanut Butter is a food paste or spread which is made from ground dry roasted peanuts. It often contains additional ingredients that modify the texture or taste, such as sweeteners, salt, or emulsifiers. Peanut butter is popular in many countries around the world. Peanut butter is served as a spread on toast, bread, or crackers, and used in making sandwiches notably the peanut butter and jelly sandwich. It is also used in numerous confections and packaged foods, such as Reese's Peanut Butter Cups which is made of chocolate-coated peanut butter, candy bars which are made from peanut butter-flavored snickers, and peanut-flavored granola bars. Comparable preparations are made by grinding other nuts. A variety of other nut butter is also sold, such as almond butter and cashew butter. 

Global Peanut Butter Market Drivers:

Peanut butter is a high-quality food product with several nutritional benefits associated with its consumption. It is a good source of protein, fat, fiber, minerals, and vitamins. The vitamin E content of peanut butter is essential for correcting vision and muscle orientation. It also serves as an antioxidant, giving it the ability to fight diseases like cancer, inflammation of the joints, and many other diseases. Consumers prefer health products with similar nutritional values compared to junk food, which is estimated to support the demand in the global peanut butter market over the forecast period. The driving factors of the global peanut butter market are the growing demand for nutritious products coupled with the increasing disposable income of consumers particularly in developing countries. Other drivers that are driving the growth of the peanut butter market are the emergence of hectic life schedules and the growing demand for low-calorie healthy food. Changing lifestyles and shift toward the intake of convenient food are also some factors that are expected to drive the peanut butter market in the forecast period.

Consumers around the world are now involved in strenuous activities, which often result in loss of energy. The need for high-energy foods like peanut butter is essential to help regain lost energy. When people are stressed after a busy and hectic day, they are eager to consume foods like ready meals that can be prepared in a short time. Therefore, this is estimated to generate an increase in the demand for peanut butter in the worldwide market.

Global Peanut Butter Market Restraints:

Factors such as the increase in the price of the products and the occurrence of various allergies among some people with the intake of peanuts are primarily hampering the growth of the global peanut butter market. There is competition between the main players in the industry in the price of products, which will affect the growth of the market. A major constraint that is expected to hinder the growth of the peanut butter market is the availability of peanuts at competitive prices coupled with fluctuating peanut production.

Impact of COVID-19 on the global peanut butter market:

The anticipated economic crisis caused by nationwide lockdowns due to coronavirus has influenced the peanut butter market. The market faced a slight decline with the temporary shutdown of manufacturing units and supply chain disruptions. However, the peanut butter market is estimated to develop with a notable CAGR in the coming years, owing to the rising awareness of health benefits associated with this compared to traditional spreads.
