Global Vinegar Market is valued at approximately USD 6.41 billion in 2022 and is anticipated to grow with a healthy growth rate of more than 2.8% during the forecast period 2023-2030. Vinegar is a versatile liquid condiment that has been a staple in culinary practices and various traditional remedies for centuries. It is produced through the fermentation process of sugars, typically derived from fruits, grains, or other carbohydrate sources, into acetic acid by acetic acid bacteria. The Vinegar Market is expanding because of factors such as rising expansion of the food service sector, increasing awareness of health and wellness and rising demand for ready-to-eat meals.
The escalating demand for ready-to-eat meals is serving as a significant driver for the growth of the vinegar market. As contemporary lifestyles become increasingly fast-paced, consumers are turning to convenient and quick meal solutions, fostering a surge in the popularity of ready-to-eat options. Vinegar, with its versatile culinary applications, has become a pivotal ingredient in enhancing the flavor profiles of these meals. Its preservative properties contribute to the extended shelf life of ready-to-eat products, aligning with the expectations of consumers for both convenience and freshness. According to Statista, in year 2021 the revenue from ready to eat meals across the world stood at USD 0.47 trillion which increased to USD 0.51 trillion in year 2022 and it is projected to reach USD 0.72 by year 2027. Thus, rising demand for ready-to-eat meals is driving the market growth. In addition, rising food preservation practices and increased home cooking trends are creating new opportunities for market growth. However, the availability of substitutes stifles market growth throughout the forecast period of 2023-2030.
