Food Safety Testing Market size is estimated to grow by USD 9,209.62 million between 2022 and 2027 accelerating at a CAGR of 7.84% during the forecast period.
An increase in the involvement of government agencies is a major factor driving the market growth. The global food safety testing market is growing due to the increased involvement of government agencies. Stringent regulations set by organizations like the European Commission and FSSAI require food manufacturers to ensure their products meet safety standards, including limits on heavy metals and contaminants. For example, the EU has established maximum levels for contaminants like mercury and zearalenone in food products. Campaigns promoting food safety, such as World Food Safety Day, have also influenced companies to prioritize food safety testing. These factors drive the market's growth by ensuring public health and reducing the burden of foodborne diseases.

There are multiple factors influencing market growth. Our researchers analyzed the data with 2022 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges.
The growing importance of food safety standards is a key driver in the market. The demand for food safety standards has increased as consumers seek nutritious and safe food. Food manufacturers invest significantly in limiting the risks of food contamination. Standards such as ISO 22000, FSSC 22000, IFS Food, and BRC Food provide guidelines for food safety management systems. IFS Food is particularly relevant for manufacturers with their own brands, ensuring compliance with customer specifications. FSSC 22000 demonstrates a robust food safety management system and is often required by purchasers in the supply chain. Various companies offer certifications and support to food manufacturers, helping them implement validated processes and enhance their reputation. These standards contribute to the growth of the global food safety testing market.
The adoption of advanced robotics for the automation of food safety testing is the key trend in the market. Initially, robots were used for palletizing and packaging in food production. Their application has expanded to production and picking, driven by factors like rising labor costs, employee health concerns, and food safety compliance expenses. Robots offer advantages in food safety by working in extreme environments, reducing human contact with products, and ensuring consistency, worker safety, and productivity. Modern robots are small, lightweight, and connected, enabling automation of previously manual tasks and integration into the IoT. As the demand for processed and packaged foods increases, investments in automation grow, driving the demand for robotics in food manufacturing. This contributes to the growth of the global food safety testing market.
Lack of infrastructure and underutilization of resources in developing countries is a major challenge hindering market growth. Food safety tests are not easily accessible or affordable in developing countries, where food contamination is a significant concern. Outsourcing and local production of test equipment could help address these challenges. However, obstacles such as inadequate infrastructure and workforce in regulatory departments, like in Delhi, India, hinder the implementation. The underutilization of funds by food safety regulators further exacerbates the issue. Improvements are needed in laboratories' infrastructure, equipment, and workforce to overcome these obstacles and support the market's growth.

The meat and poultry segment was valued at USD 4,402.33 million in 2017 and continued to grow until 2021. The presence of programs such as the US National Residue Program, administered by the Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS), is highly significant. The program is designed to identify, rank, and analyze chemical contaminants in meat and poultry products, wherein poultry and meat samples are randomly selected for the residues of more than 200 chemical contaminants, antibiotics, drugs, and pesticides. Such factors will enhance the demand for food testing solutions in the meat and poultry segment during the forecast period.
Based on technology analysis, rapid techniques hold the largest market share. Rapid techniques in food safety testing have become increasingly popular in recent years due to their ability to provide fast and reliable results, compared with traditional testing methods. These techniques include technologies such as PCR, immunoassays, biosensors, and other molecular-based methods that can quickly detect and identify pathogens, allergens, and contaminants in food samples. The adoption of these rapid techniques has helped to improve food safety and reduce the risk of foodborne illnesses, while also reducing the time and cost of testing. The rapid segment has become increasingly popular in recent years due to its ability to improve the speed and accuracy of food safety testing, while also reducing the cost and complexity of testing.

North America is estimated to contribute 41% to the growth of the global market during the forecast period. Technavio’s analysts have elaborately explained the regional trends and drivers that will shape the market during the forecast period.
The increasing government funding in the food and beverage industry contributes to the demand for food safety testing in North America. In December 2021, US FDA issued Final Rule Laboratory Accreditation for the analyses of food, which is required by the Food Safety and Modernization Act (FSMA) that was passed in 2011. The FSMA aims to revolutionize food safety in the country by focusing on preventing contamination rather than just the prevention of foodborne diseases. The implementation of the FSMA to ensure that only safe food products enter the market is expected to drive the adoption of food safety testing solutions in the country during the forecast period.
The outbreak of COVID-19 in 2020 enhanced the demand for food safety testing services in North America. Furthermore, growing consumer interest in high-food quality has accelerated the growth of the market. Moreover, the FDA and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) further provide a checklist for FDA-regulated human and animal food operations. This includes food processing, manufacturing, packing, and harvesting food products for humans and animals. Such factors will enhance the demand for food safety testing in the region during the forecast period. Such factors will drive the growth of the regional market during the forecast period.
