FOOD FLAVORS AND ADDITIVES MARKET OVERVIEW

Global food flavors and additives market size was USD 23.49 Billion in 2024 and market is projected to touch USD 40.71 Billion by 2033, exhibiting a CAGR of 6.3% during the forecast period.

Food flavours and additives are ingredients that are added to food products to enhance their taste, appearance, texture, and shelf life. Food flavours are substances that impart a particular taste or aroma to food products, while food additives are substances added to food to improve their texture, appearance, or preservation.

Food flavours can be derived from natural or synthetic sources. Natural food flavours are obtained from plants, animals, or microbial sources, and can include herbs, spices, essential oils, and fruit extracts. Synthetic food flavours are chemically derived compounds that mimic the taste and aroma of natural flavours.

Food additives can be categorized into several types, including preservatives, sweeteners, colours, emulsifiers, and stabilizers. These additives are often used to enhance the appearance, texture, or shelf life of food products. For example, preservatives are added to food products to prevent spoilage and extend their shelf life, while emulsifiers are used to improve the texture and consistency of food products.

This has resulted in increased prices and a delay in the production of some food products. The pandemic has led to changes in consumer demand, with more people purchasing food products online and focusing on healthy and natural ingredients. As a result, there has been a shift towards using natural and organic food flavors and additives in food products.
