Summary

Provides an overview of current Americas food scenario regarding the future outlook in terms of ingredients, product claims, labeling, distribution, and packaging. It also highlights industry size, growth drivers, latest developments, and future inhibitors for the Americas. The analysis also covers regional market size comparison - Americas vs. other regions

The Americas food industry expanded steadily during 2019-24, with value sales increasing from $987.1 billion to $1,235.2 billion, supported by rising interest in healthier, clean-label, premium, and functional products. Brazil remained the region’s largest market, with value sales projected to rise from $154.4 billion in 2024 to $203 billion in 2029. In 2024, bakery & cereals (B&C) held the largest value share at 25.3%. PepsiCo was the leading company, with a value share of 3.4%, followed by Grupo Bimbo (1.9%), Mondelez International (1.9%), Nestlé (1.8%), and The Kraft Heinz Company (1.6%). In 2024, modern retail led the Americas food industry with a 58.4% share, driven by the wide offerings, convenience, and cheaper prices offered by supermarkets, hypermarkets, and ecommerce.

Key Highlights
  • The Americas region is projected to post a moderate value CAGR of 3.6%, while volume growth will remain low at a 1.2% CAGR. The region’s maturity and market saturation continue to constrain volume expansion. As food-price inflation eases, manufacturers can no longer depend on pricing to elevate revenues, which will further moderate value growth. At the same time, sustained cost-of-living pressures are prompting consumers to spend more cautiously, reducing discretionary purchases and increasing the shift toward value-focused options.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
