These days, to establish a successful bakery business, it is crucial to ensure hygiene in all layers of production, distribution and retailing. And this is possible only when food handlers involved in the bakery supply chain are adequately trained.
Bakery products are items of mass consumption. Their acceptance in India has increased over the years because of various factors. The significant increases in disposable incomes in select but sizeable pockets of urban Indian society during the last decade-and-a-half; changing eating habits of people; growth in the number of nuclear families in urban India with less time to cook at home being only some of them.
In India, there are more than 2,000 organised and semi-organised bakeries, and 1,000,000 unorganised small-scale bakeries. Bread and biscuits are the most popular bakery items in the country and account for more than 80 percent of the total bakery products in India. In fact, India is the world’s second-largest producer of biscuits after the US.
According to the report by IMARC Group, titled ‘ Indian Bakery Market: Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2018-2023’, the Indian bakery market reached a value of more than 6 billion USD during 2017.
The bakery sector comprises the largest segment of the food processing sector in India and offers huge potential for growth, according to the guidance document produced by FSSAI, which was published in October 2017.
