Increasing adoption of air fryers with ENERGY STAR certification is notably driving market growth. Foodservice establishments are mainly focused on using it that help improve production efficiency with minimal operating costs. This enables manufacturers to offer equipment with energy-saving features to increase the profitability of food service establishments as the air fryer cook food faster and require less preheating time, resulting in lower overall electricity consumption. Manufacturers are focusing on achieving ENERGY STAR certification through advanced burner and heat exchanger designs.

Thus, all such factors increase the adoption of air fryers with ENERGY STAR certification, which, in turn, is anticipated to have a positive impact on the growth of the market during the forecast period.

The growth in the influx of people to urban areas and a substantially large, white-collared demographic have increased the number of quick-service restaurants. Varied tastes and preferences for different types with experiments of different cuisines have further led to the emergence of these products in food service establishments.
As a result, leading food service establishment chains are opening their outlets in many developing economies of Asia and South America. The number of companies offering products such as air fryers has attracted the attention of the youth and is widening their reach. For instance, Restaurant Brands International Inc., one of the key players operating in the global quick service restaurants, announced its plan to open more than 100 restaurants in Ontario and Manitoba during the forecast period.
