Consumers’ preference for tasty, healthier and convenient snacking alternatives is expected to drive the global savoury biscuits market. With the growing number of supermarkets, hypermarkets and online platforms, increased product visibility and availability is expected to boost market growth. North America, Europe and Asia are projected to be key markets.
The savoury biscuit segment has witnessed significant growth in recent years as an increasing number of consumers has sought to adopt healthier substitutes to sweet snacks. Consumers have shown greater interest in products that are low fat, gluten free, low calorie, low sodium, not fried, and high in fiber. Manufacturers have also catered to this demand by offering innovative flavours and appealing products featuring healthier and sustainable elements (such as seeds, legumes, multiple grains, dried fruits, etc.), and reducing or eliminating sugar, trans fats, saturated fats, artificial sweeteners, high-fructose corn syrups, preservatives, etc. Addition of chocolate chips, honey and raisins to biscuits has increased the sales of savoury biscuits.
Savoury biscuits can be consumed between meals as snacks and help feel full; snacking on savoury biscuits may help reduce or prevent late-night or untimely junk-food eating or binging on high-calorie foods. Moreover, these can be prepared in less time and are convenient to carry. These factors make savoury biscuits popular among consumers. Savoury biscuits may broadly be segmented into Crispbread, Crackers, Baked Bites, and Wafer Biscuits.
