The rise in Jewish and Muslim populations is notably driving the market growth, although factors such as the intense competition from halal foods may impede the market growth. Our researchers analyzed the data with 2022 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
The rise in Jewish and Muslim populations is one of the major drivers impacting the kosher foods market growth. The Jewish population is expanding at a stable pace globally. According to the AICE, in 2019, the global Jewish population was recorded at around 14.71 million, which was less than 1% of the global population. The population of Israel, home to the largest Jewish population globally, was around 6.8 million in 2019, which is 74% of the total Israel population. The Jewish population grew by nearly 6.2% during 2010-2019. The population is mainly concentrated in North America, the Middle East, and Europe.
However, it is declining steadily in Europe. Kosher foods are obtained and processed in accordance with halal food rules and restrictions. This makes kosher foods popular among Muslim consumers. The Muslim population is rising at a steady rate globally. Islam is the second-largest and fastest-growing religion in the world. Also, the low availability of halal food in a few countries like the US makes Muslims dependent on Kosher food. Thus, the rise in the Jew and Muslim population bases will drive the demand for kosher foods during the forecast period.
The development of apps for kosher foods is one of the major trends influencing the kosher foods market growth. According to the Torah, Jews must consume only kosher foods to keep their souls clean. But it becomes a challenge while traveling because, in some places, it is difficult to find kosher foods. Thus, to facilitate kosher tourism and help in finding kosher food joints, many new mobile apps are being developed. Most of the apps are designed to help find restaurants, grocery stores, product lists, minyanim, and mikvahs.
Most of these apps have GPS to detect the correct and real-time position of the person. Some of the kosher food apps include Kosher Near Me, Kosher GPS, OU Kosher apps, CRC Kosher, and KOSHERWHERE. Most of these apps operate only in a few parts of the world, but a few apps like KOSHERWHERE operate in many regions. There are also online apps for kosher food delivery like KEATOV.com. The development of kosher apps will increase the availability and ease of buying kosher foods, thereby increasing the demand for kosher foods.
Intense competition from halal foods is one of the major challenges impeding the kosher foods market growth. Halal foods and kosher foods follow two religious ways in terms of slaughtering animals and consuming foods. Halal meat is slaughtered, processed, and made according to Islamic rules and dietary laws, while kosher meat is slaughtered, processed, and prepared according to Jewish dietary laws, the Kashrut. The slaughter techniques are quite similar, and both are considered hygienic and healthy foods.
However, halal foods are more popular across the globe than kosher foods. This is primarily because the Muslim population is larger than the Jewish population. The Muslim population accounted for around one-quarter of the global population, while the Jewish population was around 0.2% of the global population. Halal foods are more popular in APAC and MEA. In these regions, people from other communities also recognize halal labels easily. Thus, the demand for halal foods is increasing not only in Muslim nations but also in non-Muslim nations.

The kosher pareve segment was valued at USD 12.48 billion in 2017 and continue to grow by 2021. Pareve means neutral, and the kosher pareve segment includes foods that are neither meat nor dairy and are not prepared or processed with either of these products. However, pareve foods can be served and consumed with meat and dairy products. Some examples of pareve products include fruits and vegetables, nuts, seeds, grains, tofu, plant proteins, confectionery products, beverages, and other related products that do not contain meat and dairy products in any form. Products such as fruits, vegetables, grains, and nuts must be checked before purchasing to avoid the presence of bugs, insects, or larvae to be considered kosher. Such factors will increase the market growth during the forecast period.

North America is estimated to contribute 51% to the growth of the global market during the forecast period. Technavio’s analysts have elaborately explained the regional trends and drivers that shape the market during the forecast period. North America is the largest market for kosher foods. The key countries in this region, in terms of kosher food consumption, are the US and Canada. The US is the largest market for kosher products globally. In the US, kosher foods are preferred by both Jew and Muslim populations bases. The inadequate availability of halal foods has led to higher consumption of kosher foods by the Muslim population. However, religion plays a secondary role in determining the sales of kosher foods in the US. The key reason that is driving the market is that kosher foods are considered safe and healthier in comparison to other food products because of the strict dietary laws and regulations, taste, and flavors. Food companies in the country operate with kosher certification bodies like the Orthodox Union (OU). Further, most modern retail channels have dedicated shelves for kosher foods. Such factors will increase the market growth in this region during the forecast period.
The outbreak of COVID-19 had a negative impact on the regional kosher foods market in 2020. However, in 2021, owing to the large-scale vaccination drives, various business and industrial activities resumed, such as the production of kosher foods. Many companies launched new mobile apps to help with kosher travel and make it easier to find kosher restaurants, which increased the demand for kosher foods. The production cycle of kosher applications increased the availability and comfort of purchasing kosher items. In addition, the growing affluent Jewish population increased health consciousness and increasing urbanization, which, in turn, is expected to fuel the growth of the global kosher foods market during the forecast period.
