Major Driving Factors for Ready Meals Market

Global Ready Meals Market: Overview

The global ready meals market is primarily driven by the convenience these products offer to students and working professionals. Ready meals are precooked and prepackaged meals that can be consumed with minimum or no preparation. Due to the busy lifestyles, consumers prefer ready-to-eat meals that decrease the preparation time, thereby propelling the demand for ready meals. These meals provide a healthier alternative to junk food and cheaper alternative to eating out. Moreover, the rising disposable income of consumers is contributing to the growth of the market. According to a report by the National Institutes of Health (NIH), more than 90% of the population in the U.S. consume ready meals daily; they provide more than 7% of the total daily energy to Americans, studies show.

Global Ready Meals Market: Restraints and Opportunities

Despite the convenience offered, the negative perception of ready meals among health-conscious consumers is adversely affecting the growth of the global market. The increasing consumption of these meals is concomitant with the rise in the prevalence of obesity and other lifestyle-related diseases. Moreover, events such as the horse meat scandal in the U.K. have drawn consumers away from these meals. Such events are increasing the skepticism regarding the purity of raw materials amongst consumers, thereby impeding the growth of the market. Furthermore, with the existing storage and transportation system, several manufacturers are unable to ensure quality and consistency, which is hampering the growth prospects of the market.

On the other hand, manufacturers are increasingly focusing on the packaging as it plays a vital role in retaining the product quality, vitamin content, taste, texture, color, and shelf life. Manufacturers are collaborating with packaging companies to develop advanced and innovative packaging such as biodegradable barrier tray to expand their consumer base. This is likely to provide a significant push to the market in the near future. Moreover, consistent PR efforts by the leading manufacturers are expected to help in rebuilding the positive image of ready meals.
