Data Bridge Market Research analyses that the market is growing with a CAGR of 9.9% in the forecast period of 2021 to 2028 and is expected to reach USD 647.52 million by 2028. The growing food fraud concern in the Middle East and Africa is a driving factor for the market growth.

The factors driving the market's growth are growing food fraud concern in the Middle East and Africa, increasing consumer awareness about food safety, increasing demand for certified food products, stringent food regulation and standards, a growing number of foodborne illnesses. The food authenticity testing market is growing at a high pace due to customers' increasing concerns about food adulteration with lower quality ingredients. The Middle East region especially has high instances of halal and kosher testing due to consumer demand, and therefore, the segments have accounted for comparatively higher shares in the market. Lack of experience and technical knowledge, especially in small enterprises, will lead to serious contamination in food products, resulting in food-borne disease and can cause severe problems. The lack of expertise and technical knowledge could restrain the food industry and the food testing industry.

Consumers opt for healthy and clean food options to live a healthier lifestyle, thus increasing the authenticity of food testing. Nowadays, consumers are becoming more inclined towards clean labelled food free from preservatives or additives to continue a certain lifestyle. Also, the awareness regarding promoting a sustainable environment by using clean label products is boosting the market's growth. With the rising demand for clean label food, the manufacturers seek clean label certification for their products to fulfil consumers' needs. This can pose as an opportunity for the market.

The food safety regulations differ from country to country, such as a food item being considered safe for consumption in one country but not importing to other countries. As a result, the food goes to waste and leads to a lot of food wastage. Therefore, the need for harmonization of the food safety standard is on the rise. The increase in the number of initiatives taken by the governmental authorities to give the food safety standard a uniformity will help tackle the major challenge faced by the Middle East and Africa food authenticity testing market.
