The global food safety testing market is predicted to reach US$ 35.3 Billion by 2030. The practice of food safety testing has gained considerable significance over the past few years in view of growing incidences of food-borne illnesses and poisoning caused by contaminated food products. Food safety is threatened by microbial pathogens, viruses, toxins, genetically modified organism content, pesticides, food allergens and others. With the rising public concern over food contamination and foodborne illnesses, combined with advancements in testing technologies, the food safety testing market is anticipated to grow significantly.

The increasing consumption of processed and packaged food in developing and developed countries, owing to factors such as shifting lifestyles and food habits, rapid urbanization & fast paced life, increasing disposable incomes of consumers, rise in nuclear families and dual income households, is projected to drive the food safety testing market. Companies engaged in the manufacturing and distributions of food products are mandated by their respective regional and international regulatory agencies to implement food safety testing and certification.
