The Growing Food Pathogen Testing Market: Ensuring Food Safety in a Globalized World

According to a research report titled "Food Pathogen Testing Market" by MarketsandMarkets, the food pathogen testing market is experiencing significant growth. In 2023, it is estimated to be worth USD 15.1 billion, and by 2028, it is projected to reach USD 22.7 billion, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.4% from 2023 to 2028. This surge in demand for food pathogen testing services can be attributed to several factors, including increased consumer awareness of foodborne illness risks and the demand for safer food. High-profile cases of contamination and outbreaks have heightened public concerns, driving consumers to seek transparency and assurance in the safety of their food. Consequently, the need for food pathogen testing services has grown to meet this demand.

Factors Driving Growth:

Regulatory Emphasis on Food Safety: Regulatory bodies and government agencies worldwide have placed a stronger emphasis on food safety, enacting stricter regulations and standards. Compliance with these regulations necessitates regular testing to ensure that food products meet acceptable pathogen levels. As a result, food producers, manufacturers, and retailers are turning to food pathogen testing services to adhere to these regulations and maintain compliance.

Globalization of the Food Supply Chain:

The globalization of the food supply chain has led to increased demand for food pathogen testing. With the import and export of food products across borders, there is a higher risk of contamination. Robust testing measures are required to identify and mitigate potential pathogens, ensuring the safety and quality of food products throughout the supply chain. This has led to a growing need for food pathogen testing services to support safe international trade and maintain consumer confidence.

Campylobacter Infections: Campylobacter, a significant foodborne pathogen, is estimated to grow at 8.6% during the forecasted period. It is commonly associated with poultry and meat contamination and is responsible for bacterial diarrhea, particularly traveler's diarrhea. Contaminated food sources include poultry, fresh produce, and beverages like unpasteurized milk and contaminated water. Campylobacter's mobility and ability to penetrate intestinal cells make it a concerning pathogen, leading to symptoms such as bloody diarrhea, fever, vomiting, and abdominal pain.

Dominance of Meat & Poultry Testing:

In the food type segment, meat and poultry testing are estimated to dominate the food pathogen testing market. The meat and poultry industry faces contamination challenges during processing, packaging, and storage, primarily due to inadequate temperature control. Pathogens like E. coli, Salmonella, and Campylobacter pose significant risks to public health when present in these products. Strict food safety measures throughout the manufacturing and supply chain are crucial to mitigate these risks.

Asia Pacific's Rapid Growth:

The Asia-Pacific region is expected to grow at the fastest CAGR in the food pathogen testing market. Densely populated areas in this region face significant threats from foodborne diseases, driving the demand for food pathogen testing. Factors contributing to this growth include an increased focus on safety standards, high-volume food trade within the region, and stringent safety regulations aligned with global standards.

In China, evolving food safety regulations aim to address food contamination incidents and enhance overall food quality and safety. However, ongoing food safety concerns and outbreaks have eroded public trust in China's food industry. Regulatory authorities have responded by introducing stricter measures and penalties to improve food safety practices and regain consumer confidence.

Key Players in the Market:

Major players operating in the food pathogen testing market include SGS Société Générale de Surveillance SA (Switzerland), Bureau Veritas (France), Intertek Group Plc. (UK), Eurofins Scientific (Europe), ALS (Australia), JBT (US), TÜV NORD GROUP (Germany), and AsureQuality (New Zealand).
