India’s food processing technology industry is rapidly evolving into a promising sector with significant investment opportunities, supported by a robust food ecosystem. Favorable economic policies, increasing production capacities, appealing fiscal incentives, and strong market demand are driving this growth.
According to the Ministry of Food Processing Industry (MOFPI), the Indian food industry is projected to reach a remarkable US$ 535 billion by FY 2025-26. Currently, it holds a 10.4% share of exports and employs 11.6% of the workforce, with the unregistered segment providing livelihoods for 5.1 million individuals. Since April 2000, foreign direct investment (FDI) in this sector has reached US$ 12.5 billion, representing 1.87% of total FDI equity inflows.
The growth of the food processing sector is fueled by an increasing consumption of processed foods, which is expanding into Tier-II and Tier-III cities, reflecting trends in metropolitan areas. Key sectors driving this expansion include grains, sugar, edible oils, beverages, and dairy products.
India boasts one of the largest food processing industries globally. The gross value added (GVA) in this sector grew from Rs 1.79 lakh crore (US$ 21.5 billion) in 2016-17 to Rs 2.37 lakh crore (US$ 28.5 billion) in 2020-21, achieving a CAGR of 7.2%. The sector employs over 2 million individuals and contributes 8.9% to manufacturing value added (MVA), encompassing food and beverage sectors. By the end of 2023, the sector had attracted approximately Rs 7,126 crore (US$ 857.7 million) in investments under the Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme for Food Processing.
As the Indian food processing technology industry becomes more sophisticated, it shows increasing potential for expansion into international markets. Processed food machinery exports reached US$ 3.1 billion in 2023, with a 5-year CAGR of 8%. The top export markets include the US, Singapore, Saudi Arabia, Nepal, Nigeria, UAE, and Bangladesh.
Moreover, the burgeoning food processing sector presents immense opportunities for global technology players looking to engage in trade, investment, and business collaboration. In 2023, imports of food processing technologies reached US$ 5.5 billion, growing at a 5-year CAGR of 6%. Leading supplying countries include China, Germany, Italy, Republic of Korea, Japan, and the US.
With its favorable economic landscape and growing demand for processed foods, India is poised to emerge as a key player in the future of the global food manufacturing economy.
