COVID-19 has made a significant impact on the bakery products market as due to the insufficient sale of bakery products during the peak time of the coronavirus pandemic, as many of the bakers have shut operations, which also includes the shortage of labours. Along with this, disruption in logistics facilities due to the lockdown has created more issues in the market as consumers were not getting products as per their requirement which ultimately affected the market. Another factor that has created an impact on the market is the lack of raw material availability due to which production of products was not proper. Due to these issues, smaller bakers in the unorganized segment are the worst affected, as stated by the All India Bread Manufacturers Association.

Bakery products have long been basic food products for human nutrition. The convenience, accessibility, and nutrition profile associated with them are the major factors of their sustenance in the modern market. Their significance as a major portion of diet has been prevalent in middle to lower-income group countries. Bread has been a staple diet of many local cuisines worldwide and has shown remarkable growth even during the period of global economic crisis.

The rising trend of “Natural nutrition”, “healthy living” and “organic products” has significantly raised the consumers’ demand for whole wheat, light, natural and additive-free bakery products. In recent years, the growth in sales of packaged, whole wheat, wholemeal, gluten-free and natural products is an important indication of this new and healthy living sense in the market studied.
