Report Overview

India Food Waste Disposal System Market – Industry Trends & Forecast Report, 2029

India food waste disposal system market size is projected to grow at a CAGR of 5.91% during the forecast period between 2023 and 2029. Major growth drivers for India food waste disposal system market include fast expansion of the food and beverage industries nationally. Substantial amounts of food waste are being produced by restaurants, hotels, and fast-food outlets owing to the general public's rising consumption of prepared and packaged foods. This has made the use of food waste disposal systems for efficient collection and separation of food waste at the level form necessary. The ever-growing Indian population and increased personal spending power bolster market growth.

India Food Waste Disposal System Market - Overview

Food that has been served but not eaten, food that has gone bad, peels, and rinds that are deemed unfit for human consumption and are fed to animals, composted, anaerobically digested, landfilled, or burned with energy recovery are all examples of food waste. It is difficult to recycle because of the salt, high sodium level, and moisture content when collected. The amount of food waste in municipal trash is increasing. A sound management plan for food waste must be developed to enable sustainable and ecologically friendly disposal. Anaerobic digestion and composting are the two methods for recycling food waste that are most widely used. Composting employs oxygen and naturally occurring microbes to break down biodegradable garbage in a confined container or underpass. Also, it provides an alternate way of disposing of food waste.

Growth Drivers

Growing Number of Landfills

Landfill is one of the most popular waste disposal methods in India, as more than half of all solid waste generated is untreated and dumped into landfills, owing to inefficient waste management systems in the country. Private players are gaining traction, particularly in municipal authorities in West Bengal, Karnataka, and Haryana, where waste management is subpar due to insufficient planning and lower spending than desired by the respective state governments. Therefore, the government is closely monitoring market conditions and assisting industry players, including relaxation of investment norms and monetary incentives.

Indian Government’s Supportive Measures

Indian government is taking steps to reduce food waste during exportation. Food waste management is expected to gain popularity in India due to the enormous volume of food that India exports to North America and Europe, where more food is lost during transit. Despite being the world's second-largest producer of fruits and vegetables after China, India still loses approximately 70% of its output due to inefficiencies in the initial stages of harvest and delivery. India wishes to collaborate with businesses in the United States to implement innovations and technology throughout the entire food production and consumption chain. India and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) have launched a plan for increased naval cooperation and the construction of logistical infrastructure in India to help India export food and perishables to UAE markets at a lower cost. The government is spending money to improve agricultural production and cold chain logistics to reduce overall food waste generation.

Restraints

Lack of infrastructure and technology for efficient food waste disposal

Traditional waste disposal methods, such as incineration and dumping, harm the environment and are therefore restraints for the Food Waste Management Market. The gases produced as a result of this contribution to global warming and climate change. Also, increasing modernization in new products offered in the market and advancing research and development activities will create new opportunities for the food waste management market in the near term.

Impact of COVID-19 on India Food Waste Disposal System Market

The outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic had a favorable effect on the market for food waste management in India. The pandemic had a profound effect on consumers' purchasing and consumption patterns. Due to increased food hoarding by customers around the nation owing to lockdowns and stringent laws, there has been a surge in food waste, which has created demand for the food waste management market.
