BRATWURST MARKET OVERVIEW

The global bratwurst market was valued at USD 1.02  billion in 2024 and is projected to touch from USD 1.06 billion by 2025 to USD 1.43 billion by 2033, exhibiting a CAGR of 3.92% during the forecast period. North America is dominating the bratwurst market share in 2025.

The fresh link sausage known as bratwurst, which originated in Germany, is made from pork, veal, or cattle. It is popularly drunk in many parts of the United States as well as Germany and is served with nutmeg, coriander, traditional spices, and ginger to enhance flavour. One of the main variables influencing market growth in the future is the rising demand for food products high in protein.

Increased sales of packaged and processed foods, a large increase in the demand for food, an increase in worldwide agricultural activity, and a rise in global population are all factors contributing to the growth of the food and beverage business. Increased demand for natural food ingredients and additives, as well as increased imports and exports of food and drink globally, all contribute to the industry's revenue growth. The expansion of this industry has also been aided by technological developments in food processing and packaging, an increase in online food delivery services and online meal delivery services, and rising disposable incomes among customers worldwide.

COVID-19 IMPACT

Covid Outbreak Lead To Supply Chain Disruption

The market for chicken sausage is rapidly returning to its pre-COVID levels, and over the course of the forecast period, a solid growth rate is anticipated, led by the economic recovery in the majority of emerging countries. Unprecedented circumstances brought on by the anticipated third and subsequent waves, however, are causing a bleak prognosis. It is anticipated that the current COVID-19 pandemic, which has devastated international trade and industry, will kill off the frozen sausage industry. The decrease in demand has an effect on producers.

In addition to affecting demand, the COVID-19 epidemic has also disturbed the supply chain, which has caused firms to wait significantly longer to get the raw materials they need. This has made inventory management extremely challenging for producers. The COVID-19 lockdown limits and a labour shortage led to a decrease in the production and sales of frozen sausage.

LATEST TRENDS

Increasing Demand And Industry Digitization Leading Market Expansion

Increased consumer desire for convenience foods indirectly promotes growth in demand for frozen sausages because frozen sausages require less time and effort to cook than fresh sausage. Because of customers' busy lifestyles, a greater need for convenience is fueling the expansion of the processed food industry. As a result, there is a growing demand for frozen sausages. Another factor that significantly affects the expansion of the frozen sausage industry is an increase in disposable income, which increases consumer purchasing power.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

Rising Consumption Trends And An Increase In The Number Of Vegans And Vegetarians Will Hampered The Market's Growth

The market for German sausages is significantly hampered by the decline in meat consumption.

According to Germany's Federal Ministry of Food and Agriculture's Nutrition Report, 2020, a smaller percentage of the population now regularly consumes meat. Adverse health effects like heart disease, cancer, diabetes, and early mortality linked to bratwurst consumption are among of the key challenges limiting market revenue growth.
