Food Safety Testing Market to Witness Revolutionary Growth by 2027

 The Food safety testing market is estimated at USD 21.1 Billion in 2022; it is projected to grow at a CAGR of 8.1% to reach USD 31.1 Billion by 2027. The importance of food safety testing is rising as a result of growing public interest in food safety and quality issues. Further, the increasing export & import of food products will lead to increased food safety testing demand to fulfill regulatory compliances of the destination country and help countries competing for export markets.

The meat, poultry, and seafood segment by food tested is projected to achieve the highest CAGR growth in the food safety testing market. One of the main societal concerns has been the safety of meat and meat products, which is defined by a number of problems related to either microbial infections or other problems (whether biological or not), such as food additives, chemical residues, genetically modified organisms, and microbial pathogens. Factors such as an increase in the number of consumers at risk for infection, and increased consumer interest, awareness, and scrutiny have all been identified as potential explanations for the rising meat safety concerns of recent years. One of the major factors that drive the growth of the seafood testing service industry is the high demand for seafood products, such as crustaceans, shrimps, crabs, lobsters, tuna, marlin, and swordfish, due to their nutritional values such as the presence of omega fatty acids and other essential nutrients.

By target tested, the pathogen segment is projected to account for the highest market share in the food safety testing market. 

Pathogen is the main cause of food contamination that leads to disease-infected hosts. They form a major part of food contaminants. According to WHO, Salmonella, Campylobacter, and enterohaemorrhagic Escherichia coli are some of the most common foodborne pathogens that affect millions of people annually, sometimes with severe and fatal results. Increasing foodborne diseases, coupled with the growing importance of food safety, have increased the demand for food safety testing services significantly over the past few years.

The traditional technology segment is projected to account for the second-largest market share in the food safety testing market over the forecast period.  

 

Traditional technology finds its application in microbial assays, visual inspection, and culturing methods. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and culturing methods require a minimum of two to three days. The only major drawback of this technology is that it is time-consuming. However, the traditional segment is predicted to grow gradually as regular tests are an indispensable part of common food safety testing laboratories.

Europe is projected to achieve the highest market share in the food safety testing market. High food safety regulations that safeguard consumer health and promote the efficient operation of the European market have been established by the foundation of the European Union's (EU) food policy. Different foodborne disease evidence and food contaminations have reduced the confidence of consumers in the ability of the food industry and food safety authorities. Hence, the food safety policies in Europe follow the “from farm to fork" strategy—testing conducted right from the raw material procurement stage to the final distribution stage.
