The food safety testing market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 9.9% from 2015, to reach USD 791.5 Million by 2020. The market growth is driven by changing consumers’ attitude and concerns of retailers for safe and quality food, positive structural changes in the Chinese food safety regulations, high occurrence of food safety incidents in China, and globalization of food trade and China’s rising food exports.
On the basis of application, the food safety testing market is led by the processed food segment, followed by the meat & poultry segment. The contamination of food products is often observed during several stages in the food supply chain, mainly during the processing, packaging, and storing stages. China Food and Drug Administration (CFDA) have enforced food safety regulations to control the concerns related to the safety of food products, which has driven the food safety testing market in China.
Among the types of food safety testing, testing for pathogens accounted for the largest market share in 2014, owing to their high occurrence in a diverse range of food products, which led to cross contamination incidences leading to a large number of product recalls. The market for GMO testing is projected to grow at the highest CAGR in China in the next five years.
The lack of awareness about food safety regulations, food safety practices perceived as additional costs by food manufacturers, and non-compliance to food safety standards are the factors restraining the growth of food safety testing market in China. Food safety testing is regulated by the China Food and Drug Administration (CFDA). Stringent regulations imposed by the regulatory bodies in order to curb the food adulteration, frauds, and scandals have caused closure of substantial number of food manufacturing and processing plants in China, which mainly includes infant formula and dairy manufacturers.
Key market players such as Silliker (U.S.), Neogen (U.S.), Intertek Group Plc (U.K.), Chemical Inspection and Regulation Service (CIRS), and other state owned and private players are focusing on joint ventures and expansions through business establishments in key market regions. Mergers & acquisitions are also a part of strategic moves adopted by key players to gain a significant share and increase their foothold in the Chinese food safety testing market.
