South Africa Food Hydrocolloids Market Analysis
The South African food hydrocolloids market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3.8% during the forecast period (2020 - 2025).
The growing food industry, along with the overall food retail sector, has a major role to play in the growth of the thickeners segment for hydrocolloids. Apart from this, the changing consumer preference favoring the dense ready-to-eat products is another key factor driving the overall growth of the segment.
Product innovation in hydrocolloids is majorly focused in the bakery and confectionery segment of the country, owing to increasing per capita consumption. Although gelatin is widely used, consumers demanding for vegan and kosher labels are enabling the companies to look at naturally derived raw materials to meet their demand.
