Fresh pasta varieties, including ravioli, tortelloni, and cappelletti, are gaining popularity, especially among the working population. This segment is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 4.1% over the forecast period.
Innovative Product Launches and Health-Conscious Choices Drive Market Expansion
Processed food is gaining immense traction as key players introduce innovative and nutritious products. Manufacturers are increasingly incorporating healthy ingredients to cater to the growing demand for health-conscious options like gluten-free and vegan pasta. This trend is expected to sustain the market’s positive outlook, with dried gluten-free pasta also witnessing substantial growth, driven by the demand for products with longer shelf life.
