Growth Opportunities in the Market
Growing demand for gluten-free products: Gluten is a group of proteins present in various cereal grains such as wheat, barley, rye, and oats. Consumption of gluten by people with celiac disease results in diarrhea, bloating, and weight loss as the immune system attacks the small intestine as a defense mechanism. Whereas, people having gluten sensitivity, but do not suffer from celiac disease, experience abdominal pain, or other mild symptoms upon gluten consumption. Thus, the demand for gluten-free products is increasing due to the rising number of people who voluntarily avoid or limit their gluten consumption. This shift in consumption patterns has created an opportunity for gluten-free packaged pretzels manufacturers.
Non-Store-Based Distribution Channels Gaining Popularity Across the Globe: The non-store-based segment is projected to register a higher growth rate during the forecast period. The segment includes e-commerce, wherein manufacturers distribute packaged pretzels through various online shopping sites and/or their websites. Companies face difficulties in reaching consumers in different parts of the globe through brick-and-mortar stores. Thus, e-commerce channels enable companies to cater to the consumers’ needs and expand brand presence.
