Natural Food Preservatives Market Outlook - 2026

The natural food preservatives market was valued at $796.1 million in 2018 and is projected to reach $1,068.1 million by 2026, growing at a CAGR of 3.7% from 2019 to 2026. North America is one of the prominent regions in the natural food preservatives market that accounted for approximately two-fifth of the total natural food preservatives market share in 2018. Natural preservatives are naturally derived additives used in a wide range of products, such as snacks, bakery, confectionery, meat, seafood, poultry, and others to preserve natural characteristics of food and increase the shelf life of food products for storage. In addition, natural food preservatives are used to avoid spoilage during transportation. Traditional natural ways of preservation include freezing, boiling, smoking, pasteurizing, pickling, and others. Sugar and salt are the earliest natural ways of food preservation that efficiently reduce the growth of bacteria in food. 

The natural food preservatives market is driven by changing consumer preferences toward food and beverages. Increase in demand for convenience products has led to increase in the demand for foods with longer shelf life, thus increasing the natural food preservatives market demand. Rise in consumption of ready-to-eat food products also driven the consumption of natural food preservatives in the recent past. Increase in demand for organic food products restrains the natural food preservatives market growth as they often do not contain any preservatives.
