According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Food Service Equipment Market is accounted for $37.38 billion in 2022 and is expected to reach $60.65 billion by 2028 growing at a CAGR of 8.4% during the forecast period. Cooking equipment, storage and handling equipment, ware washing equipment, food and beverage preparation equipment, and serving equipment comprise the food service equipment market. As the demand for technologically advanced kitchen equipment grows, manufacturers of foodservice equipment have significantly improved their product offerings. People's living standards in developing countries have given rise to restaurants and cafes, which has contributed to investments in the food industry.
According to a Google and Boston Consulting Group (BCG) report, the Indian online food industry is expected to reach $8 billion by the end of 2022, with a 25-30% growth rate. As a result, the growing online foodservice sector will propel the foodservice equipment market forward.
Market Dynamics:
Driver:
Integration of Automated Technologies
The equipment manufacturers intend to concentrate on the low-cost services that can be provided to improve food quality. In today's market, it has become mandatory to monitor and cater the quality services of any equipment. For interconnected and smart operations, remote maintenance and self-diagnosis features are implemented, recognising the operation of food service machinery. This equipment aids in the preservation of hygiene, accurate temperature, and sterilisation of utensils used in food preparation, thereby ensuring consumer food safety. Companies in the industry are creating products based on AI and IoT technology to improve the user experience which is fueling the market growth.
Restraint:
High Cost of Advanced Machinery
Food safety is the primary goal of any food equipment manufacturer, and the production of these machines necessitates skilled labourers who can operate both traditional and automated machines. The integration of automated food service machines is more expensive and comes with a demand for trained labourers as well as other automated facilities. This raises the overall setup and maintenance costs of the machines, impeding market growth.
Opportunity:
Rising demand for ready-to-eat meals
Consumers' shifting eating habits and increasingly hectic lifestyles have increased demand for ready-to-eat meals in recent years. Rapid shifts in supporting factors such as disposable income, consumer preferences, an increase in the working female population, and digitization have resulted in an increase in the number of restaurants offering quick service, pop & shop, and other types of dining options. Furthermore, an increase in the demand for processed foods increases the number of grocery stores, hypermarkets, and retail shops, which increases the demand for refrigeration and storage products, which is contributing to market growth.
Threat:
An Increase in Food Safety Concerns
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), one out of every six Americans becomes ill as a result of contaminated food or beverages, and 3,000 people die as a result. Furthermore, the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) estimates that foodborne illnesses cost the country more than $15.6 billion per year. The rapid rise in food safety concerns is increasing the adoption of advanced food service storage and handling equipment, which is one of the major factors said to be restricting the growth of the Food Service Equipment Market Share.
Covid-19 Impact
Due to stringent social distancing and shelter-in-place norms imposed by governments worldwide, the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in the temporary shutdown of food service operations. Nonetheless, as governments ease lockdowns and the first vaccines arrive, the food service industry is expected to recover during the forecast period. While dine-in restaurant traffic is expected to take longer to recover, end customers are expected to recover via off-premise, takeaways, and online delivery services. The struggling market is expected to thrive in the coming years as a result of the subsequent increase in footfall in food service restaurants and institutional kitchens.
The Cooking & Preparation Equipment segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period
Cooking and preparation equipment is expected to be the largest segment during the forecast period due to increased demand in general and convenience stores, full-service restaurants, and quick-service restaurants. Moreover, the growing demand for advanced kitchen equipment and the increased adoption of grill equipment in developed countries are the major factors driving the growth of the market. Additionally, to meet the growing demand for fried foods among the young population, key players around the world are focusing on developing advanced fryer equipment, which is also fueling the market.
The Quick Service Restaurants segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period
The quick-service restaurants segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period due to rapid changes in supporting factors such as consumer preferences for fast food, increase in working women population, rise in disposable income, and rapid urbanisation, which has resulted in an increase in the number of quick-service restaurants & pubs, thereby driving market growth.
Region with largest share:
Due to the emerging hospitality industry in India, China, and Japan, Asia Pacific holds the largest food service equipment market share over the forecast period. According to National Restaurant Association of India (NRAI) statistics, the country's food service industry is expected to reach around USD 843 billion providing opportunities for market growth. Furthermore, rising demand for frozen food products in China and Japan, rising travel, tourism, and hospitality will fuel market growth in this region.
Region with highest CAGR:
The North America region is expected to grow at the fastest CAGR during the forecast period, rising number of food joints in the region. Restaurants across the United States and Canada are making significant investments to improve their customer service. As a result, using various food service equipment such as cooking equipment, refrigerators, and ware-washing equipment, among other things, will assist restaurants in improving their food services. According to the National Restaurant Association of the United States, the country has over one million restaurants, providing ample opportunities for market growth. Furthermore, the growing demand for technologically advanced equipment in the food industry in the United States will drive market growth in the coming years.
