Increasing demand for bread and bakery products and convenience staple food is the major factor driving the flour market globally. Flour is fine and coarse powder processed from agricultural crops which include maize, rice, wheat and rye among others. Flour is processed by purifying, conditioning, grinding, blending, extracting and drying cereals, seeds and roots. In terms of applications, flour is used in different food items such as noodles and pasta, pet food, wafers, biscuits, crackers, biomaterials, bread and bakery products. With the rise in per capita income and increasing awareness towards convenience food staples, demand for bread and bakery products has increased in recent years. Rising consumer awareness towards low protein gluten free food items is positively driving the consumption of non wheat flours (rye, corn and rice) in the form of gluten free food items. Expansion of aquatic feed industry in Asia Pacific has increased the flour consumption in the form of animal feed. These factors are considered to positively drive the growth of flour market during the forecast period, i.e., from 2014 to 2020.
