The curliness of noodles has fascinated the younger to older generation due to their prominent flavor and instant ready-to-eat food. The instant noodles category in India was, in a sense, created by Nestle with the introduction of their Maggi brand in the mid-1980s. The concept of ‘2-minute noodles’, positioned as a quick snack option for children, found acceptance with both the children and their mothers as well. Nestle dominated the instant noodles market with its brand Maggi for a long but the industry is now seeing a flurry of activity with new entrants stocking the shelves in past few years. Instant noodles have also emerged from being a snack food or an occasional, alternate eating option to a mainstream food item of choice featuring regularly in consumer’s grocery baskets.

Instant noodle is a category in which there is a role for packaging as well, and not just flavor. The instant noodles market in India is hugely dominated by flexible plastic packaging viz. Packet/Pouch Consumer preference for the use of convenient packaging and packaged products in affordable quantities is also one of the main reasons that have contributed to the growth of instant noodles in India. Cup noodles were initially introduced by Indo Nissin in the year 1991 but they were not much popular as there was no big player in this category to promote these cup noodles.

A growing millennial population and increasing customers who are working-class are driving the consumption of packaged food products, such as instant noodles, in India. Also, the companies have recently introduced several products, which are distinctive in terms of new flavors, healthy ingredients, and packaging. Depending on these factors, consumption of instant noodles has been increasing at a considerable rate in India, during the past few years. A large part of the population comes from the middle or lower-middle class. Therefore, price sensitivity plays a significant role in hindering the growth of the instant noodles industry across the country. Most people in rural areas are unaware of the various brands that are available unless they see them at their local store. Hence, the lack of a well-established distribution network acts as a challenge for the instant noodles market in India.
