Restraint

Lack of technological awareness

Developing economies wherein high-priced processing equipment is not readily accessible can be one of the critical market restraint factors. Lack of technological awareness and local market advancement is expected to further inhibit the technological development of the processing equipment market. Raw material price increases will also be another factor that affects the growth of the poultry processing equipment market.

Opportunity

Technological development in meat and poultry processing equipment

To an impressive extent, the poultry processing equipment market has been influenced by the moves that the food industry is making towards more organized supermarkets and hypermarkets. Tumbling and evisceration machinery also play a great role in poultry.

Meat quality is a serious concern in the industry. This could raise the use of automatic processing machines. On the other hand, veganism trends in the HoReCa sector may have further increased market expansion.
