Noodles consumption is rising globally due to changing consumer preferences towards fast food. Internet shopping also witnessed rapid growth, which benefited the consumption of noodles worldwide.
  • Russia's invasion of Ukraine has badly impacted the market for noodles. The war has increased the cost of raw commodities like oat, rice and wheat, which are the key constituents. This is creating a major problem for manufacturers globally.

Dominance of the Asia-Pacific Region

According to the Noodles market forecast, Asia-Pacific held the largest share with 39% of the overall market in 2022. It is also poised to dominate the market over the period 2023-2030.

Growing Demand for Less-time Consuming Ready-to-eat Food

The introduction of vegan noodles would efficiently attract vegan consumers worldwide, which significantly contributed to market growth.
