High Demand for Breakfast Cereals to Propel the Global Ribbon Blenders Market

Surging consumption of breakfast cereals with the rising popularity of ready-to-eat food items enabled by busy lifestyles of the working population is expected to augment the market.

Rising need for healthy & convenient food, increasing preference for local flavors, and westernization of global diets are set to push cereal consumption in developing countries, thereby accelerating the ribbon blenders market growth.

Moreover, rapid expansion of retail infrastructure, such as hypermarkets and supermarkets in various parts of the globe is set to fuel the demand for breakfast cereals. Increasing number of new product launches with numerous flavors by key players is another crucial factor that would spur growth.

In November 2021, for instance, General Mills, Inc., a multinational food company based in the USA, launched various products to expand its ready-to-eat cereal range. The lineup includes CinnaGraham Toast Crunch, Reese’s Puffs Cluster Crunch, Plentifull, PJ Masks Cereal, and Strawberry Banana Cheerios. Such unique product launches by companies in the breakfast cereal segment is set to foster the requirement of ribbon blenders.

Which Factors May Hamper Demand for Ribbon Blenders during 2022 to 2032?

It is very difficult to generate 100% discharge in ribbon blenders. The movement of ribbons located near the vessel walls can damage delicate materials and lead to attrition because of high compression and shear.

In addition to that, high clearance between the container and the external periphery of the outer ribbon can often result in dead or unmixed spots. Spurred by the aforementioned disadvantages, sales of ribbon blenders may get hindered in the assessment period.

Increasing Consumption of Snack Bars to Drive the North America Ribbon Blenders Market

Increasing demand for snack bars among the health-conscious population in the USA and Canada is projected to bolster the North America ribbon blenders market share in future years. Rising replacement of high calorie content products with snack bars in the region is also expected to drive the regional market.

Surging cases of obesity are compelling consumers to opt for nutritious snack bars, which would propel the need for ribbon blenders. As per the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), in 2017-March 2020, the prevalence of obesity in the USA was 41.9% and the estimated annual medical cost of obesity was about USD 173 Billion in the country. The trend is set to continue throughout the forthcoming years, thereby fostering the North America market.

High Sales of Energy Drinks in India to Push the Asia Pacific Ribbon Blenders Market

Asia Pacific is set to remain in the second position, followed by North America during the forecast period. Launch of customized energy drinks to attract consumers belonging to the age group of 18-34 years in India, China, Japan, and South Korea is likely to augur well for the regional market.
