The Snack Food Production industry has benefited from increased demand over the past five years. As the economy has continued to strengthen, discretionary income levels have climbed. In turn, renewed consumer spending has boosted sales of potato and tortilla chips, along with nuts and seeds. The industry's future looks promising, with improving economic conditions expected to further lift demand for snacks. Projected increases in per capita disposable income will enable some consumers to trade up to premium brands and product segments, helping drive revenue growth. Additionally, as consumers demand more healthy versions of existing snacks, operators are expected to introduce a wider variety of products.
This industry produces snack foods such as potato and corn chips, pretzels, roasted and salted nuts, nut butters, popcorn and other similar snacks. However, it does not produce cookies, crackers, bakery products, cereal or granola bars.
The report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecast, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.
