エスニック食品の世界市場、2030年までの予測： タイプ別、食品タイプ別、流通チャネル別、地域別の世界分析

Stratistics MRCによると、世界のエスニック食品市場は2023年に836億米ドルを占め、予測期間中にCAGR 9.08％で成長し、2030年には1,537億米ドルに達する見込みです。

エスニック料理は世界の食品産業の中でも活気に満ちた多様な分野であり、世界中の地域や国の食習慣の影響を受けた膨大な種類の料理と風味を提供しています。この市場の特徴は、地域の特産品、珍しい食材、文化的な出会いに重点を置いていることです。中国料理、インド料理、イタリア料理、メキシコ料理、日本料理、タイ料理、韓国料理、中東料理、アフリカ料理、ラテンアメリカ料理など、幅広い料理がエスニック・フード市場に含まれるが、これらに限定されるものではないです。それぞれの料理は、独特の味、調理法、食材をもたらし、本物であることが高く評価されます。

欧州連合（EU）の地理的表示と伝統的特産品に関する制度によれば、一部のエスニック食品は、原産地呼称保護制度（PDO）、地理的表示保護制度（PGI）、伝統的特産品保証制度（TSG）を有しています。これらの基準は、高品質の食品や農産物のブランドを促進し、保護するものです。

多文化主義と移民の増加

異なる国や文化的背景を持つ人々が新しい土地に移住します。移住先の国では、こうした移民が料理の伝統を持ち込むことが多く、その結果、新しく多様な料理が生み出されます。その結果、近隣の市場に多様なエスニック料理が並ぶことになります。エスニック食材に特化した国際食品市場やスーパーマーケットの開拓は、移民コミュニティの存在に影響されることが多いです。世界中のさまざまな料理を試してみたいという顧客の熱意を引き寄せるだけでなく、こうした市場は移民グループの要求に応えています。

完全自然食品に対する消費者の需要

エスニック・グループの食品は通常、国から国へと輸送されるため、食用の化学保存料を使用する必要があります。しかし、食品に天然素材を使用することが一般的になるにつれ、エスニック・グループは、製品を長期間保存しようとすると困難にぶつかる可能性があります。また、世界の主要輸送手段が海上輸送であるため、商品が目的地に到着するまでに時間がかかります。このような状況下では、製品の賞味期限を長く保つために天然成分を使用することが必ずしも可能とは限らないです。また、小規模でローカルな企業が多いため、化学素材から天然素材への転換は難しく、世界の市場拡大の妨げになるかもしれないです。

アジア太平洋ではエスニック料理の消費が増加しています。

国や地域をまたがるさまざまな料理を頻繁に食べたり試したりするペースの速い傾向は、若年人口の拡大と相まって、アジア太平洋のエスニックフードサービス事業における成長の見通しをいくつか生み出しています。インド人やその他の発展途上国の人々は、ソーシャルメディアを使って自分の料理体験について語り合うことが増えており、その評価に基づいて新たな料理の選択肢や店を探そうとする顧客を促しています。本格的な郷土料理や世界の料理の新たな食体験を発見したいという消費者の関心は高まっています。さらに生産者は、より多くの国際的な定番料理、より多くの種類、スパイス、強力な風味を盛り込むことで、斬新で個性的な料理製品に対する消費者の需要に応えようと懸命に努力しています。

食品の安全性と衛生

消費者の健康に対するリスクは、食品の安全性と衛生手順の不備がもたらす最も直接的で深刻な影響です。細菌感染、食中毒、胃腸疾患などの食中毒は、汚染された食品や不適切に調理された食品に起因する可能性があります。エスニックレストランや食品施設の食中毒や不衛生な状況に関する情報によって、消費者の信頼が損なわれる可能性があります。顧客はこうした店での食事やエスニック料理全般を口にするのを嫌がるようになり、好ましくない評価やメディアの宣伝によって、こうした企業の評判がさらに損なわれる可能性があります。

COVID-19の影響

COVID-19の流行は、2020年のアジア太平洋におけるエスニック食品の製造と輸出を減速させました。世界最大のエスニック料理用食品の製造国のひとつである中国は、エスニック料理用食品の製造と輸出が困難になっています。COVID-19の発生後、世界中の多数の工場が閉鎖を余儀なくされました。その結果、生産量は最低となっています。それまで外食を楽しんでいた人々は、流行後は安全のために家で過ごさなければならなかっています。しかし、パンデミックによって低脂肪・低カロリー食品への需要が高まったため、消費者のヘルシー志向は変化しました。COVID-19の流行により、エスニック食品に対する需要が高まっており、生産者はこのチャンスをとらえて新製品を投入しています。

予測期間中、日本セグメントが最大となる見込み

多様化する日本のエスニック食品市場には、伝統的なものから現代的なものまでさまざまな食事があるため、日本セグメントは有利な成長を遂げると推定されます。刺身と寿司は、現在世界中で食べられている最も有名な日本食の2つです。寿司と刺身に特化した日本食レストランは、世界中の主要都市にあります。和牛ステーキ、わさび、数種類の醤油など、高級で本物の日本製品に対して、顧客は喜んで高い買い物をします。弁当箱、インスタントラーメン、巻き寿司は、すぐに食べられる便利な商品の例であり、日本だけでなく海外のスーパーマーケットやコンビニエンスストアでも広く手に入り、市場を後押ししています。

予測期間中にCAGRが最も高くなると予想されるのは外食セグメント

外食産業は、顧客に様々なエスニック料理や世界各国の料理を提供するため、予測期間中に最も高いCAGR成長が見込まれます。エスニックレストランでは、本格的な料理、風味、食事体験が提供されるため、人々は世界中の様々な料理の伝統を探求し、味わうことができます。エスニックレストランでは、中華料理、インド料理、イタリア料理、日本料理、タイ料理、メキシコ料理、地中海料理など、様々な国や地域の料理が味わえます。どの料理にも独特の味、食材、調理法があります。

最大のシェアを占める地域

予測期間中、北米が最大の市場シェアを占めると予測されるが、これはアジア系顧客の増加によるタイ料理のようなアジア系食品に対する需要の高まりによるものです。さらに、北米地域における食品およびその他の新しいエスニック料理の人気の発展により、さまざまな地域のエスニックグループ食品の輸入ニーズが増加しています。消費者は、冷凍食品や郷土料理の人気の高まりによって、この食品業界に引き寄せられるようになっています。さらに、米国の経済拡大は、エスニック料理の冷凍と保存に関する継続的な研究と技術の飛躍的進歩によって促進されると予想されます。

CAGRが最も高い地域

アジア太平洋地域は予測期間中に最も高いCAGRを示すと予測されるが、これはアジア太平洋の多くの国や文化のダイナミックで多様かつ豊かな料理の伝統がエスニック食品市場に反映されているためです。中国料理、インド料理、日本料理、タイ料理、韓国料理、ベトナム料理、インドネシア料理、マレーシア料理、その他多くのエスニック料理がこの市場の代表です。多くのアジア料理では、新鮮な食材、野菜、バランスの取れた味付けが重視されているため、ヘルシーという評判が高いです。これらの料理は、健康志向の食習慣が拡大し続ける中、健康的な選択肢を求める顧客にアピールしています。

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Ethnic Food Market is accounted for $83.6 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach $153.7 billion by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 9.08% during the forecast period. The ethnic food is a vibrant and varied area of the global food industry, offering a vast range of cuisines and flavours that are influenced by the regional and national culinary customs all over the world. This market is distinguished by its emphasis on regional specialties, unusual ingredients, and cultural encounters. A wide range of cuisines, including but not limited to Chinese, Indian, Italian, Mexican, Japanese, Thai, Korean, Middle Eastern, African, and Latin American, are included in the ethnic food market. Each cuisine brings its unique tastes, cooking methods, and ingredients and authenticity is highly valued.

According to European Union schemes for geographical indications and traditional specialties, some ethnic foods have protected designations of origin (PDO), protected geographical indications (PGI), and guaranteed traditional specialties (TSG). These standards promote and safeguard the brands of high-quality foodstuffs and agricultural products.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Growing multiculturalism and immigration

People from different nations and cultural backgrounds immigrate to new places. In their chosen countries, these immigrants frequently bring their culinary traditions with them, resulting in the creation of new and diverse cuisines. This adds to the diverse array of ethnic foods that may be found in nearby markets. The development of international food markets or supermarkets that specialize on ethnic ingredients is frequently influenced by the presence of immigrant communities. In addition to drawing customer's eager in trying out different cuisines from around the world, these markets serve the requirements of immigrant groups.

Restraint:

Consumer demand for products that are wholly natural

Food products from ethnic groups are typically transported from one country to another, necessitating the use of some edible chemical preservatives. However, as the use of natural ingredients in food products becomes more popular, ethnic groups may run into difficulties when trying to preserve their products for a longer period of time. Additionally, it takes time for the goods to arrive to their destination because the sea is the primary mode of transportation worldwide. In these circumstances, it might not always be possible to employ natural ingredients to maintain the products' long shelf lives. It might be challenging to switch from chemical to natural ingredients given the abundance of small and local businesses, which would impede the expansion of the worldwide market.

Opportunity:

Increased consumption of ethnic food is growing in the Asia-Pacific region

The fast-paced tendency of often eating and experimenting with different interstate and inter-country food cuisines, coupled with the expanding young population, have created several growth prospects in Asian-Pacific region's ethnic food services businesses. Indians and individuals from other developing nations are increasingly using social media to discuss their culinary experiences, encouraging customers to explore new cuisine alternatives and establishments based on the ratings given. Consumer interest in discovering new culinary experiences for authentic regional cuisines and global cuisines is growing. Additionally, producers are working hard to meet consumer demand for novel and distinctive culinary products by including more international classics, greater variety, spices, and potent flavors.

Threat:

Food safety and hygiene

The risk to consumer health is the most immediate and serious effect of poor food safety and hygiene procedures. Foodborne illnesses, including bacterial infections, food poisoning, and gastrointestinal conditions, can result from contaminated or incorrectly prepared food. Consumer trust may be damaged by information about foodborne illnesses or unhygienic conditions at ethnic restaurants or food establishments. Customers can become reluctant to eat at these places or to try ethnic food in general and the reputation of these companies might be further harmed by unfavourable evaluations and media publicity.

COVID-19 Impact

The COVID-19 epidemic slowed the manufacturing and export of ethnic foods in the Asia Pacific region in 2020. China, one of the biggest manufacturers of foods for ethnic groups worldwide, had difficulty producing and exporting foods for ethnic cuisine. Following the COVID-19 outbreak, numerous factories throughout the world had to close. As a result, production was at its lowest. People who had previously enjoyed dining out had to stay at home for their safety after the epidemic. But because of the pandemic's increased demand for low-fat and low-calorie foods, consumer preferences for healthy options have shifted. Due to the COVID-19 epidemic, there is a greater demand for ethnic food, and producers have seized this chance to introduce new products.

The Japanese segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The Japanese segment is estimated to have a lucrative growth, as there are many different traditional and modern meals available on the diversified Japanese ethnic food market. Sashimi and sushi are two of the most well-known Japanese foods that are now enjoyed around the world. Sushi and sashimi-focused Japanese eateries can be found in major cities all over the world. Customers are willing to spend more for premium, genuine Japanese products like Wagyu steak, wasabi, and several kinds of soy sauce because the Japanese food market values authenticity. Bento boxes, instant ramen, and sushi rolls are examples of ready-to-eat and convenience goods that are widely accessible in supermarkets and convenience store both in Japan and overseas which boosts the market.

The restaurants segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The restaurants segment is anticipated to witness the highest CAGR growth during the forecast period, because they give customers access to a variety of ethnic and global cuisines. People can explore and taste the many different culinary traditions from around the world in ethnic restaurants because they provide authentic foods, flavours, and dining experiences. Various national and regional cuisines, such as Chinese, Indian, Italian, Japanese, Thai, Mexican, Mediterranean, and many more, are represented at ethnic restaurants. Every cuisine has its own distinctive tastes, ingredients, and cooking methods.

Region with largest share:

North America is projected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period owing to the rising demand for Asian foods like Thai food brought about by the relocation of more Asian customers in the area. Additionally, the need for the import of different regional ethnic group foods has increased due to the development in popularity of food products and other new ethnic cuisine cuisines in the North American region. Consumers have been drawn to this food industry by the rising popularity of frozen meals and local foods. Moreover, the United States' economic expansion is anticipated to be fuelled by on-going research and technology breakthroughs in the freezing and preservation of ethnic cuisines.

Region with highest CAGR:

Asia Pacific is projected to have the highest CAGR over the forecast period, owing to the dynamic, diverse, and rich culinary traditions of the many nations and cultures in the Asia Pacific region are reflected in the market for ethnic foods. Chinese, Indian, Japanese, Thai, Korean, Vietnamese, Indonesian, Malaysian, and many other ethnic cuisines are represented in this market. The emphasis on fresh ingredients, veggies, and well-balanced flavours in many Asian cuisines gives them a reputation for being healthy. These cuisines appeal to customers looking for wholesome options as health-conscious eating habits keep expanding.
