The Food Industry in India

According to IBEF, the Indian food industry is poised for huge growth, increasing its contribution to the world food trade every year. In India, the food sector has emerged as a high-profit sector. The role of the Indian government has been instrumental in the growth and development of the industry. The Indian food and grocery market is the world?s sixth largest, with retail contributing 70 per cent of the sales. It is projected to grow at the rate of 104 per cent, touching US$ 482 billion by 2020.

Over the past decade, the appeal of coffee has grown across India. A rising caf? culture also favours the uptake of coffee. Industry participants estimate the Indian coffee market to be worth $200 million as of 2012, with caf? and coffee sales expected to grow 25% annually. The increased consumption of coffee in India is likely to be a boon for coffee production as well. As a result, more area will likely be brought under coffee cultivation. Further, the demand for coffee dispensing machines is expected to rise in these countries, which would be a boon for this sector with immense demand for trained professionals. Therefore, the career of a Coffee Blender has a bright future and opportunities are only going to rise in the coming years.
