North America was the leading region for food fortification premix in 2018 due to the rising consumption of functional foods. The increasing demand for functional foods in North America is due to the reduced intake of essential nutrients owing to the higher consumption of processed foods and busier lifestyles. The Americas, as a whole, account for 39% of the market for food fortification premix followed by Europe, Asia Pacific, and Middle East and Africa.
   
The food fortification premix market is being driven by the mandatory fortification of food staples required across various countries in the world, with 86 countries having compulsory schemes for the fortification of cereals.  Currently, wheat flour fortification is mandatory in 85 countries while maize flour fortification and oil fortification are mandated in 16 countries and 29 countries, respectively. Salt fortification has been made mandatory in 108 countries. Less than 1% of the total industrially milled rice globally is currently fortified, with only 6 countries mandating the fortification of rice.

The fortification of industrially milled maize flour witnessed an increase of 2 million metric tons from 2016 to reach 16.9 million metric tons in 2017. The rise in industrially milled maize flour fortification was primarily driven by the increased fortification in countries like Nigeria and South Africa. Meanwhile, Bangladesh, China, and Myanmar added to the 500, 000 metric tons increase in the fortification of industrially milled rice in 2017, as compared to 2016.  In 2017, industrially milled wheat flour fortification also saw a growth of 2 million metric tons from 2016 to attain 87.8 million metric tons aided by increased fortification of industrially milled wheat flour in China and India.
