Gluten-free Bread Market Growth & Trends
The global gluten-free bread market size is anticipated to reach USD 1,085.9 million by 2030 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 5.8% from 2024 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The increasing demand and preference for gluten-free bakery and bread products among consumers are driven by several key factors. Health awareness is a major contributor, as more individuals are opting for gluten-free options due to perceived benefits such as improved digestion, increased energy levels, and better overall well-being. The rise in diagnoses of celiac disease and gluten sensitivity has also fueled this demand, as people with these conditions must avoid gluten for their health. In addition, some consumers believe that a gluten-free diet aids in weight management, further boosting its popularity. Lifestyle choices, including clean eating and veganism, along with celebrity endorsements and media influence, have also played significant roles in promoting gluten-free diets.
Trends driving the market growth include the demand for clean-label products with simple, recognizable ingredients and no artificial additives. The convenience of ready-to-eat and easy-to-prepare gluten-free products caters to busy consumers. At the same time, the growth of online retail and delivery services has made accessing these products easier.
Manufacturers are responding to this demand with innovations in flavors and product offerings. They are introducing unique flavors and combinations, incorporating nutrient-rich ingredients like quinoa and almond flour, and fortifying products with vitamins and minerals. Artisanal and gourmet gluten-free products are also becoming more popular, offering a premium experience. Continuous research and development efforts are focused on improving the texture and taste of gluten-free bakery items, making them more comparable to their gluten-containing counterparts. For instance, in October 2023, Brazi Bites, a leading brand of Brazilian cheese bread, introduced a new “Everything” flavor of its signature cheese bread product. The new “Everything” Brazilian Cheese Bread features a blend of sesame seeds, garlic, onion, and poppy seeds in addition to the brand’s traditional cheese-based recipe. The new offering is gluten-free, grain-free, and made with simple, clean ingredients, with no artificial preservatives, colors, or flavors.
