The specialty malt market, encompassing caramel, roasted, and smoked malt, is set to be valued at US$ 3,102.40 million in 2024. It is projected to grow to US$ 4,250.30 million by 2034, with a compounded annual growth rate of 3.70%. This growth is attributed to the growing demand for specialty malt in the brewing industry and the popularity of craft beer.
The specialty malt market is driven by several factors, including:
- Its high adoption rate due to its beneficial properties
- The high demand for organic food products
- The establishment of mega food parks and food and beverage manufacturing units
The market is also expected to grow due to advancements in technology, research and development techniques, productivity growth, population growth, government subsidies, abundant raw materials, and improved connectivity. However, government regulations are expected to limit the use of specialty malt and its derivative products, while high prices of organic food discourage consumers.
Asia Pacific is set to record sky-high growth levels in the specialty malt market through 2034, followed by Europe and North America. Top producers include Japan, India, China, and Australia. Growth is expected due to rising per capita income and population, while Europe and North America collectively share a significant market share.
“The specialty malt market is expanding due to advancements in research and development, rising demand, multi-functionality, demand for craft beer, and proliferation of independent breweries. The growing popularity of malted beverages and craft beer among the young population, as well as a preference for organic ingredients, are driving growth.” – says Nandini Roy Choudhury (client Partner for Food and Beverages at Future Market Insights, Inc.)
