Analysis of Food Pathogen Screening Market by Pathogen, Technology, Application, and Geography to 2035
Overview:
The global market for food pathogen testing is poised for substantial expansion, driven by increasing concerns over food safety and the prevention of foodborne illnesses. In 2025, the market is anticipated to reach a valuation of USD 23.5 billion, reflecting the heightened demand for advanced testing solutions across the food industry.
Projections estimate a robust compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.7% from 2025 to 2035, propelling the market to an impressive USD 55.8 billion by 2035. This growth is underpinned by stringent regulatory standards and the globalization of food supply chains, which necessitate comprehensive and efficient pathogen detection systems.
Technological advancements in testing methodologies, including polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and immunoassay-based techniques, are enhancing the speed and accuracy of pathogen identification. These innovations enable quicker response times and better management of potential contamination risks.
Geographically, North America and Europe currently dominate the market, owing to their well-established food safety infrastructures and stringent regulatory environments. However, the Asia-Pacific region is expected to witness the fastest growth rate, driven by increasing consumer awareness and expanding food processing industries in countries such as China and India.
Key players in the market include companies like Eurofins Scientific, SGS SA, and Bureau Veritas, which offer a wide range of testing services and solutions. These companies are continuously investing in research and development to introduce novel technologies and expand their service offerings.
The market’s future trajectory will be shaped by ongoing trends such as the adoption of rapid testing methods, the integration of data analytics for predictive risk assessment, and the growing emphasis on preventive controls throughout the food production process. These factors collectively contribute to the evolution of the food pathogen testing market towards greater efficiency, reliability, and proactive risk management.
