Market Trends of France Food Additives Industry
This section covers the major market trends shaping the France Food Additives Market according to our research experts:
Flavors Hold Great Potential
According to World Data Atlas, France has the highest per capita consumption of cheese after Denmark, Iceland, and Finland. Thus, manufacturers, such as Kerry Group and Flavorchem Corp., among others, are offering dairy flavors to meet the consumers' everlasting demand for cheese. In savory products, like cheese, biscuits, bagels, and sourdough premixes, citric acid is used, which is a strong-tasting acid. Thus, flavor manufacturers like Corbion are offering flavors that can be used as alternatives for citric acid. In France, the food and beverage industry has witnessed a reduction in synthetic food flavors due to the increasing application of natural flavors in beverages and the bakery and confectionery industry.
Clean Label to Drive the Market
The industry has witnessed a cut in synthetic ingredients due to wider use of botanicals, the replacement of emulsifiers with enzymes and other texturizers, and rising demand for natural sweeteners. The changing trend and demand for nutritive products are expected to further fuel the demand for clean label ingredients in France. In France, provenance resonates stronger than it does in other countries. French supermarket, Super U, pledged to remove or reduce 'controversial' substances from its private label range, including palm oil, aspartame, monosodium glutamate, bisphenol A, and fructose-glucose syrup, citing consumer fears associated with consumption of 'non-clean label' products.
