MEA Food Safety Testing Market Analysis
The Middle East & Africa Food Safety Testing Market is expected to register a CAGR of 5.62% during the forecast period, (2022-2027).
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a substantial influence on the Middle-East Food safety testing business since the pandemic has changed consumer lifestyles and raised the likelihood of the spread of the coronavirus. As a result, the increased customer concern about the safety and security of food items has had an impact on the food and supply chain sectors.
Customers' increasing sensitivity to allergen foods such as gluten, dairy, and other foods leads to allergy-free product advances throughout the world. This subsequently led to a growth in demand for allergen-free goods which manufacturers test for traces of allergens in packaged and processed foods.
As the demand for organic products grows, chemical testing in organic goods has also been gaining popularity in the industry, owing to the fact that firms operating globally test these items for traces of listed or banned chemicals as per the regulatory requirements of various country-level agencies.
In addition, the governments in several Middle Eastern and African countries have accredited many commercial laboratories to provide thorough food safety testing throughout the pandemic . For example, the World Health Organization (WHO) and the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) approved numerous commercially recognized food safety testing laboratories to continue food testing during COVID-19, this increased the number of food safety testing laboratories in Middle East & Africa. It is expected that all these factors will drive the growth of the Food Safety Testing Market in the Middle-East & Africa over the coming years.
