Bakery Processing Equipment Market Size, Share, Opportunities, And Trends By Type (Oven, Mixers, Slicers, Sheeter, Cooling systems and Refrigerators, Others), By Application (Bread, Cakes & Pastries, Cookies & Biscuits, Others), And By Geography - Forecasts From 2025 To 2030

Bakery Processing Equipment Market Size

The bakery processing equipment market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.84%, reaching a market size of US$20.147 billion in 2030 from US$14.475 billion in 2025.

Bakery processing equipment is a system or machinery where various baked products, from bread to pastries, cakes, cookies, and doughnuts, are produced and kept. Bread systems, freezers, mixers, ovens, slicers, and many other types of equipment are included in such tools. These help manufacturers ease many of the processes involved in baking. The rising demand for baked products worldwide greatly affects the global bakery processing equipment market expansion. The growing global population is expected to create a new demand for bread and many other consumables, such as cookies, much faster. Similarly, an increase in demand for convenient ready-to-eat packaged food items such as snacks and frozen bakery products is expected to further boost the bakery processing equipment market in the coming years.

What are the Bakery Processing Equipment Market Drivers?

• Rising technological advancement is contributing to the bakery processing equipment market growth

The rising market evolution in bakery products has allowed several artisanal bakers and packaged bread manufacturing companies to modernize their premises. Further, the upsurge in internet usage after the pandemic and the work-from-home culture have also helped the bakery industry modernize or integrate the production facilities already in place. The bakery industry’s expansion is because of consumer demands, and research efforts are more concentrated on new formulations of baked goods. Significant revenue growth has been witnessed in the bakery industry, and many players are focusing on possible approaches to introducing equipment that can provide the final products- these are mostly related to confectionary and nutritious food. Therefore, the rapid expansion of equipment with enhanced capabilities drives the rise in the market.

• Manufacturers' growing adoption of energy-efficient equipment is anticipated to boost the bakery processing equipment market.

The global bread sector has been impacted by increased research activity and technological advancements. To create more cost-effective and energy-efficient equipment, major players in the baking sector have refocused their efforts on product research and development. These key players redirected their research and development efforts toward making products that provide cost-effective and energy-efficient equipment. Besides that, manufacturers are now quite competitive, having aligned their strategies to customers' behavior, resulting in many products flooding supermarkets and online marketplaces.

Furthermore, the demand for bakery foods has increased through the great concentration of manufacturers in expenditures on automation, research and development, and marketing strategies despite labor crises. Hence, further increases in offices in this industry will be determined by increased customer demands for baked goods regarding the required production and processing equipment for these products.

• Increasing automation is anticipated to boost the bakery processing equipment market.

Automation is one of the main points where bakers are convinced to accept various forms of automatic and semi-automatic equipment. Labor reduction, modularity, and flexibility are attractive features in the bakery industry, which is changing their need for production line automation. Thus, the factors above are improving the operational use of conventional semi-automatic equipment within the bakery industry. The primary motivating reasons for preferring semi-automatic over fully automated equipment are increased production capacity and specific product flexibility, leading to a change in consumer trends.

Bakery Processing Equipment Market Restraints:

• High maintenance costs are anticipated to hamper the market growth

As maintenance is the last operation to be performed, many qualified technicians are often required. The available talent pool has also shrunk with the complicated parts and technologies being built. Several players, too, realize the need for smart capabilities in their equipment. They may not have the money to upgrade or extend their facilities because new capabilities come with high costs. Maintenance costs are higher due to very complicated parts and construction quality, stalling the growing market of this processing equipment on their sales. Major bakery industry producers delay their investments and plans for expansion, inhibiting the market's growth.

Geographical Outlook of the Bakery Processing Equipment Market:

• Asia Pacific is witnessing exponential growth during the forecast period.

China is believed to be the highest revenue driver in bakery business concerns and associated growth drivers such as investments and capacity expansions, as well as automation and demand for baked goods and ready-to-eat items. With their advanced technological developments and automation, key players in the industry are committed to enhancing food processing capabilities in the bakery industry. The other factor that drives the need for bakery processing equipment in this industry is prepared foods such as bread and all other ready-to-eat confections. Further, automation, such as robotics, the Internet of Things, and AI software solutions, will lower operating costs and greatly increase the global market size.

Key Launches in the Bakery Processing Equipment Market:

• In October 2023, leading baking equipment manufacturer Rademaker partnered exclusively with Form & Frys Maskinteknik, a Danish business renowned for its proficiency in equipment for filling, folding, and forming pastries and other baked goods. This strategic partnership assisted Rademaker in increasing its footprint in Europe and North America.
• In February 2023, Escher Mixers, a manufacturer and creator of cutting-edge spiral and planetary mixers for the baking industry, was acquired by the Middleby Corporation.
