Report Description


Industrial Sugar Market Outlook 2031

The global industrial sugar market size was valued at USD 38.59 Billion in 2022 and is likely to reach USD 49.18 Billion by 2031, expanding at a CAGR of 2.73% during 2023–2031. The market is driven by the global surge in demand for sugar.

Rising dietary trends, such as snacking and fast-food consumption, are anticipated to drive the market during the assessment period. The high demand for bakery and confectionary products is influencing the use of industrial sugar. The food and beverage industry, one of the primary users of sugar, is expanding at a rapid pace, owing to the massive sales of soft drinks, confectionery, and processed food.

  • In August 2022, Raizen, the massive exporter of sugar in the world, entered into a partnership with the ASR group, the world’s huge marketer and refiner of cane sugar, for 10 years. This partnership is expected to create the first physically traceable and completely non-genetically modified supply chain in the world.

    Industrial Sugar Market Outlook

The expanding population in developing economies is increasing the demand for food products. Rapid urbanization in the developing region leads to a change in the dietary habits. Furthermore, the growing inclination toward sugar-based processed foods has been noticed in the recent years. These factors are likely to contribute to spurring the industrial sugar market.

The COVID-19 pandemic hindered the market, owing to the imposition of lockdowns by various governments across the globe. The manufacturing activities stopped during the pandemic, due to the absence of workers in the factories.

The import and export activities were restrained, which disrupted the supply chain network and led to a market slowdown. However, the market is likely to boost rapidly in the coming years, as things are now getting better.

Impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on Industrial Sugar Market

The use of artificial intelligence is expected to provide substantial propulsion to the industrial sugar market. The integration of machine learning with artificial intelligence in the manufacturing process aids in reducing input and processing costs while enhancing and maintaining the quality of sugar produced. AI has the ability to optimize the supply chain, which leads to boosting the sales and availability of sugar and sugar-based items.

Industrial Sugar Market Dynamics

Industrial Sugar Market Dynamics

Major Drivers

Growing utilization of processed food and beverages is expected to drive the market during the projection period. Sugar is a vital ingredient across the food processing industry, owing to its wide range of applications. It is extensively used in all packaged non-alcoholic and alcoholic beverages.

Thus, the adoption of modern lifestyles and changing snacking habits are projected to fuel the industrial sugar market. Furthermore, rising sugar production across the globe is projected to drive the market in the coming years.

  • According to a survey report published in June 2023, the yearly sugar production across the globe is around 180 million metric tons. Countries such as Brazil, India, and the US are among the top producers of sugar in the world.

Existing Restraints

High awareness about the harms of sugar among consumers is likely to hamper the market during the forecast period. The adoption of modern lifestyles with rapid urbanization has led to a rise in the consumption of processed food and sugar-based products.

However, excessive consumption and dependence on sugar lead to a surge in the prevalence of chronic ailments, such as diabetes and high blood pressure. This, in turn, encouraged people to avoid sugar in their diets and potentially restrain the market.

Emerging Opportunities

Increasing demand for organic sugar is anticipated to provide substantial growth opportunities for the key players competing in the market. A rising inclination toward healthy food options has been registered in recent years.

People are reducing their intake of chemical-based sugar, which leads to a significant surge in the demand for healthy raw sugar varieties, such as brown sugar, jaggery, and organic sugar. Consequently, sugar manufacturers have started focusing on the production of such variants, as these sugars have a comparatively low glycemic index, thereby impelling the market in the coming years.

Industrial Sugar Market Segment Insights

Source Segment Analysis

Based on source, the industrial sugar market is bifurcated into sugar beet and sugarcane. The sugarcane segment is projected to hold the major share of the market during the projection period, due to its high sugar content, which makes it an efficient and cost-effective source of sugar production.

In addition, it is considered a renewable source, as cane sugar crops are harvested year after year, ensuring a consistent supply of raw materials for the sugar industry. Sugar derived from this crop is used in a wide range of products, from food and beverage to pharmaceuticals, which makes it a versatile commodity. These factors are anticipated to propel the sugarcane segment during the forecast period.

  • According to the revised data published by the Agricultural Marketing Resource Center in April 2022, sugarcane harvested in the US in 2020 was evaluated at USD 1,403 million. The total area for this crop was 903,400 acres and the yield was 38 tons per acre.

Industrial Sugar Market Source

Type Segment Analysis

On the basis of type, the global market is segregated into brown sugar, white sugar, and liquid sugar. The white sugar segment is projected to register a considerable CAGR in the coming years, owing to its purity and consistency.

White sugar is very refined, which makes it suitable for a wide range of industrial applications. It has a long shelf life and is neutral in color and flavor. This allows for its use in various food products without impacting their taste and appearance. Moreover, it has excellent solubility, which leads to its uniform spread without forming any lumps. These factors are projected to fuel the segment.

End-user Segment Analysis

On the basis of end-user, the industrial sugar market is segmented into confectionary, beverages, bakery products, dairy products, and others. The confectionery segment is anticipated to register a robust growth rate during the forecast period, due to the rising adoption of sugar in chocolates, sweets, and candies.

Sugar is one of the primary ingredients in several confectionary items and is used in various forms, such as syrups and fondants. 
The beverages segment is projected to expand at a high CAGR, due to the availability of a wide range of beverages that are in high demand, including soft drinks, alcoholic drinks, fruit juices, and energy drinks.

Sugar enhances the flavor of these beverages and makes them palatable and enjoyable. These products are highly sought after on various celebrations and day-to-day occasions, which are expected to fuel the segment.

Industrial Sugar Market End User

Regional Outlook

In terms of region, the global industrial sugar market is classified as Asia Pacific, North America, Latin America, Europe, and the Middle East & Africa. Asia Pacific is expected to dominate the market during the projection period, due to factors such as the adoption of a modern lifestyle with urbanization and increasing per capita income. Increasing demand for confectionery products and soft drinks in several countries in this region is contributing to the market growth.

The market in North America is anticipated to grow rapidly, owing to the propagation of consumer culture and sugar-enriched breakfast cereals in this region. Rising demand for organic sugar, as people are becoming increasingly aware of the harmful effects of chemical-based white sugar, is further likely to boost the market in the region.
