5 Key Market Trends for Bakery Products and Trays

With the bursting popularity of organic, all natural and healthy baked goods, as well as the increasing consumption of bread, the global market for bakery products is estimated to be over $570 billion by 2024.

Innovations made both in baking equipment, such as the plastic trays and storage racks, and in frozen bakery products, such as pastries and fruit pies, will be beneficial for the market. Other new developments in the industry include the launch of thaw-and-serve products and new sharing packages of baked goodies for small family or friends gatherings.

There is also a strong demand for in-store fresh baked products. Improved logistics and expansion in infrastructures and retail networks also help bakery products to have bigger market penetration and visibility.
