According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Functional Flour Market is accounted for $72.34 billion in 2021 and is expected to reach $139.19 billion by 2028 growing at a CAGR of 9.8% during the forecast period. Functional flours are grain and non-grain flours modified to enhance the values of their individual components for different applications. The functional flours are manufactured and treated to have enhanced nutrient qualities with health benefits. Because of these health benefits coupled with augmented awareness of personal health among consumers, functional flours are widely chosen over conventional product alternatives.



Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Rising demand for gluten-free products


There are a lot of new diet plans trending in the market and suggested by a dietitian, and most of them contain a gluten-free diet. Most people are allergic to gluten as functional flour is gluten-free demand for it increases. People with digestive issues preferred a gluten-free diet, so functional flour is a great substitute for it. The product which is made from genetically modified and other types of grains such as wheat, rice, and maize contains less gluten than conventional wheat flour.

Restraint:

Stringent regulations


Stringent government regulation in the market is restraining the market growth. The functional flours market has the highest regulations. The functional flour uses a variety of ingredients and additives to increase the shelf life. But, the usage of such ingredients is controlled by policies. This creates limitations in the production of these flours. These restraints can have a major impact on the growth of the functional flour market.

Opportunity:

The rise in disposable income


The rise in disposable income will create ample opportunities for the functional flours market. Individuals' per capita income in several countries will rise in the future years. This will improve the overall spending on the functional flours market. Increased demand for premium flours will open up new avenues for expansion. The demand for premium products is increasing rapidly. Functional flour is a premium product with nutritional ingredients. It is a healthier and more natural flour loaded with benefits. Modern consumers prefer quality over price. The demand for premium functional flours will lead to more demand for the market in the forecast period.

Threat:

Lack of infrastructure


The market for functional foods is still in its early stages. The absence of infrastructure is a hurdle for the market of functional flours. The lack of infrastructure makes the production process complex. Due to many complexities, the price of these products is high. The price of these devices is considerable due to their various intricacies. All of these elements may provide a challenge to the functional flours market.

The speciality flours segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The speciality flours segment is estimated to have a lucrative growth owing to the increasing use of specialty flours in the manufacturing of infant food and the outstanding health benefits of specialty flours, together with their high nutritional content. These speciality flours are superior in their ability to handle temperature fluctuations and can be frozen without imparting negative attributes to the final product.

The ready to eat segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The ready to eat segment is anticipated to witness the fastest CAGR growth during the forecast period because of the ease of use and accessibility of ready-to-eat items. Increasing working populations' busy lifestyles require on-the-go meals to save time that would otherwise be spent preparing food and beverages at home. With different alternatives spanning from breakfast to supper, as well as healthier ones that give whole-grain and other nutritional advantages that are in demand, ready-to-eat items have emerged.

Region with highest share:

North America is projected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period due to the increasing awareness of product effectiveness and the boost in demand for premium products in the region. The investments from the market are high due to contributions from US and Canada. The rising application of functional flours like wheat flours in the baking and confectionery industry is further driving the growth of the Functional Flours Market in this region.

Region with highest CAGR:

Asia Pacific is projected to have the highest CAGR over the forecast period owing to the rising awareness about the health benefits of functional flours in conjunction with the boost in consumption of specialty flours in the region. The proliferating demand for processed foods is further fueling the progress of the functional flours market in the Asia-Pacific region.
