Global Food waste management market is divided by source into Primary Food Producers, Food Manufacturers, Food Distributors & Suppliers, Food Service Providers and Municipalities & Households. Over the forecast period, the Municipalities & Households segment is projected to expand at the fastest pace.  Food waste produced by households is expected to increase as the population grows and lifestyles change. Excessive shopping, excessive food preparation, inappropriate food handling, a lack of cooking skills, and improper storage are all factors that contribute to food waste in households. Food and meat spoilage due to changes in climatic conditions, improper handling, and the lack of proper storage facilities increased the amount of waste produced by food distributors and suppliers.

Animal Feed segment to grow with the highest CAGR during 2020-30

Global Food waste management market is divided by application into Animal Feed, Fertilizers, Biofuel, and Power Generation. Over the forecast period, the Animal Feed segment is projected to expand at the fastest pace. Food waste can be used directly as animal feed or can be rendered and fed to livestock without incurring extra costs. Since other forms of food waste applications are more expensive, the cost of using waste in animal feed is significantly higher. Composting or anaerobic digestion of food waste produces digestate, which is high in microorganisms, micronutrients, carbon, and other nutrients including potash, phosphorus, calcium, sulfur, magnesium, and phosphate. The proper application of digestate as fertilizer helps farmers in soil management and reduces pollution of land and water due to synthetic fertilizer leaching.

Market Dynamics

Drivers

Rising foodservice industry and increase in the food supply

Over the projected period, the demand is expected to be driven by the rapidly rising foodservice industry. In fast service restaurants and other hotel chains, food wastage is relatively high. Furthermore, food waste has risen in the food supply chain over the last decade, resulting in the installation of many systems that include aerobic and anaerobic digestion processes for food waste recycling. Food waste has been observed to be large in developing and underdeveloped countries.

Increased exchange in food and food ingredients between countries has resulted in the creation of new supply chains, which has resulted in a rise in food waste. As a result, governments and food management agencies have enacted more stringent legislation, boosting business growth.

Restraint

Rising population and high costs associated with market

High cost of maintaining and operating food wastage as well as rising populations and high environmental awareness is expected to hamper the market for global food waste management.
