Meanwhile, throughout the projection period of 2021 to 2031, demand for egg products in the food processing industry is expected to expand at a CAGR of roughly 5.6%.

Application of egg products in the bakery industry has been driving demand for more than a decade, accounting for roughly US$ 1.9 Bn of total egg product value in 2021. In addition, retail/household application is expected to account for 32.1% of the market in 2021. Furthermore, the market is benefiting from the selling of egg products for culinary delicacies.

Additionally, Fact.MR has projected the overall industry to expand at a CAGR of 7.4% to stand at around US$ 23.1 Bn by the end of 2031. These estimations have been put in place seeing mounting investments in baked industry demand for egg products along with rising health & wellness and protein-rich trends.

The COVID-19 pandemic had a favourable impact on baked goods, which eventually helped the egg products business, resulting in a rise in Y-O-Y growth as demand from the food processing industry secured an increased supply of products, thereby driving market growth.

How is the Bakery Industry Catering to High Growth of the Egg Products Market?

The bakery industry is quickly growing all around the world. This rise is being driven by changing consumer desire for product variety in terms of taste, flavour, and freshness. Changing customer tastes contribute to the growth of the processed eggs market, since the food industry has the highest level of product innovation.

Additionally, the increased health and fitness trend in recent years is expected to drive demand for processed egg. Over the projected future, increased development of bakery products containing eggs is expected to aid market expansion.

Owing to these factors, bakery & confectionery, as an end-use application, is projected to hold around 36.5% of the food processing industry revenue share. Demand for confectionery & desserts products is quite similar to bakery & confectionary demand, as both the markets go hand in hand.

Will the Advent of New Technologies & Tools Aid Market Expansion?

The global egg product industry was growing moderately until a few years ago. However, introduction of modern technology and instruments has ensured high safety and quality of eggs, giving the market a major boost. Furthermore, enhanced egg safety procedures have pushed businesses to invest in chicken farming and enter sectors related to egg-based products.

A vast range of egg products are now accessible on the market, thanks to increased popularity of egg-based products. As a result, broad-scale availability of diverse egg products can be credited to the egg and egg product market's rise. Solid, concentrated, crystalline, frozen, liquid, and deep-frozen versions of these goods are available. Furthermore, the market is developing due to the fast-growing global population, expanding middle-class population in emerging countries, and rising disposable income.

However, market growth is threatened by the growing vegan population around the world. Furthermore, increased incidence of bird flu, also known as avian influenza, is limiting market growth possibilities. Despite all this, these variables are projected to have a minor impact on overall market growth. 

How is the Health & Wellness Trend Impacting Demand for Egg Products?

Some of the main reasons projected to fuel worldwide egg products market share include shift in inclination towards adopting a healthy lifestyle and increase in the use of egg and egg products in personal care products due to their anti-ageing qualities.

Furthermore, increasing demand for bakery and confectionery items as well as the range of egg products available in the market are expected to enhance the target market's growth. Furthermore, egg and egg products are widely employed in a variety of applications, including culinary preparations and production of vaccinations. These are some of the key aspects that are expected to have a substantial impact on worldwide market growth.

More research & development operations to develop goods with longer shelf lives as well as increased nutraceutical applications of egg products are likely to provide new revenue potential for market players over the coming years.

Furthermore, introduction of rules to ensure egg safety is driving big firms to invest in chicken farming and egg-based product plans and schemes.
