The Europe Food Pathogen Testing Market would witness market growth of 7.8% CAGR during the forecast period (2023-2030).
Consumers are more health-conscious and aware of food safety issues. They seek reassurance that the food they purchase is safe to consume. Food manufacturers respond to consumer demand for safer products by investing in pathogen testing and transparent labelling.
Moreover, the risk of contamination from various sources rises. This has led to the adoption of testing technologies that can detect pathogens at multiple points in the supply chain. Companies seek to identify and prevent contamination before products reach consumers, regardless of where they are produced or sourced. Advances in pathogen testing technologies, such as Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), immunoassays, and next-generation sequencing, have made testing faster, more accurate, and more accessible. The availability of automated systems and portable testing equipment has increased the efficiency of testing procedures.
Staying at the edge of technological advancements is crucial in this market. Companies invest in research and development to improve testing technologies, reduce testing time, and enhance accuracy. Innovations may include the development of advanced PCR techniques, automation of testing processes, and others.
Europe has seen many cases of foodborne illnesses in recent years. As per the European Food Security Authority (EFSA), 2021, there were 4,005 foodborne outbreaks in the EU – a 29.8% increase compared with 2020. In 2021, all EU Member States and the United Kingdom (Northern Ireland) reported foodborne outbreak data to EFSA, except for Bulgaria and Cyprus, which reported zero outbreaks. Collaboration between government agencies and industry stakeholders fosters advancements in pathogen testing. Owing to these factors, there will be an increased demand for these technologies in the coming years.
