The Ecuador pasta market size is assessed to grow at a CAGR of 3.30% between 2025 and 2034. The market is being driven by the rising sales of pasta from e-commerce channels.
The urbanisation rate in Ecuador stands at nearly 64%, reflecting the growing aspirations of city dwellers to switch towards packaged and ready-to-eat food items. In Ecuador, customers typically consume pasta as a second dish in a three-course meal, comprising soup, rice/pasta, and meat, for wholesome nutrition and good health. With evolving consumer preferences and dietary patterns, the Ecuador pasta market is expected to witness significant growth in the coming years.
The growing use of durum wheat semolina, which is rich in proteins and fibres, is favouring the Ecuador pasta market growth. With technological improvements in the processing and breeding of durum wheat, its usage for manufacturing pasta has been soaring steadily over the last few years. Moreover, the high appeal of pasta among children is expected to drive the market development in the coming years.
With improving smartphone penetration (50%+) and internet accessibility, the e-commerce sector has been rising steadily in Ecuador, which is expected to contribute to an increase in sales of pasta over the forecast period. Between 2021 and 2022, the number of internet users in Ecuador increased by 3.4 million, which contributed to the popularity of online distribution platforms. Moreover, with improvements in order placing and receipt on delivery channels, consumers are expected to increasingly buy pasta from online retail channels in the forecast period.
