The world market for gluten-free food is booming and the value growth between 2016 and 2021 is expected to reach 11.6%. The market is dominated by the US which in 2019 accounted for over 40% of the market share. Moreover, bakery products dominate the global demand for gluten free products. Driven by a diversification of the offer of gluten-free products, the market is also benefiting from a positive image among consumers, as gluten-free products are often associated with a healthier diet. Going forward, this health trend is expected to contribute to the growth of the market. In the UK, one in ten people avoid gluten and 15% of households avoid gluten and wheat. [foodanddrinktechnology] The market is expected to grow parallel to an increased consumer awareness around health. Moreover, an increasing number of restaurant outlets are offering gluten-free alternatives which will boost sales in this distribution channel as well. The market structure in the UK is fragmented; there are many companies with niched products. Still today, gluten-free alternatives are relatively expensive.
