How Food Industry is Embracing TECH-DRIVEN FUTURE
In an era defined by innovation and disruption, it's no surprise that the food technology landscape in India is undergoing a remarkable transformation. This change isn't just about what we eat; it's about how our food is produced, distributed, and consumed. The amalgamation of technology and food tech is not only cutting edge but also a dire necessity. We can see that the food tech industry in India is on the cusp of a monumental transformation, driven by technological advancements. The shift from traditional to tech-driven processes has been particularly prominent in recent years. With over 3000 startups in the food technology space, technology
is making a significant presence in the food and beverage industry mainly in online food delivery and online grocery. The online food retail market is just 2.5 per cent of the overall food market with revenue touching $997.30 billion in 2024 and growing at an expected rate of 7.96 per cent (CAGR 2024-2028). It encompasses various aspects of the food industry, from agriculture and production to distribution and consumption. Let's dig deep and unearth how technology is reshaping India's food tech sector.

Industry Banks On Technology For Milk Safety

In October 2019, Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) released a full report after carrying out a survey on safety and quality of liquid milk in the country. Although the survey results hint towards demolishing milk adulteration perception, an in-depth analysis of the report reveals that 1 in 10 packets of milk purchased by consumers could be unsafe. Hence more is required in the dairy sector in order to address the issue of milk adulteration at all levels. On a whole, further steps are required to be taken to achieve transparency and efficiency in the dairy sector of India through public private partnership and best use of technology.

Curbing Obesity

With a mission to lead and drive global efforts to reduce, prevent and treat obesity, the World Obesity Federation (WOF) launched World Obesity Day in 2015 that is now observed globally on October 11.
