Market Introduction
Ready-to-eat meals cover a broad spectrum of products, namely, noodles & pastas, soups, sandwiches & wraps, gravies & curries, meat entrees, and rice bowls. The manufacturing process of ready-to-eat meals differs according to the product type and preservation technologies such as freezing, refrigeration, or dehydration. However, food preservation and safety are the core principles for ready-to-eat meal production. Manufacturers offer ready-to-eat meals to several end users, such as quick service restaurants, cafeterias and institutions, catering companies, and food retailers. Ready-to-eat meals are preferred in the food service operations of universities, as ready-to-eat meals provide culinary diversity and minimize production efforts.
The ready-to-eat meals market in the Americas is mainly driven by hectic work schedules and rising dependency on convenience food, ready-to-eat products, and ready-to-cook products. Convenience food, ready-to-eat, and ready-to-cook products allow consumers to save time and effort associated with ingredient shopping, meal preparation, cooking, consumption, and post-meal activities. These products are gaining popularity owing to the increasing number of smaller households and dual-income families. Due to hectic work schedules, millennials prefer to be efficient with their time and avoid tedious tasks. These factors are boosting the demand for ready-to-eat meals among consumers. Ready-to-eat meals are processed, and involve preservation technology, thereby extending product shelf life. Growing demand for healthy food has prompted manufacturers to develop and expand product portfolios according to specific customer requirements. In recent years, consumers have adopted plant-based diets and food products containing vegetables with high fiber and nutritional value. Plant-based ready-to-eat meals are convenient and accessible superfoods containing healthy food ingredients. The efforts and time saved on food preparation and its convenience of storage and transport have further aided in boosting the demand for ready-to-eat meals.
Key Market Segments
Based on type, the Americas ready-to-eat meals market is segmented by type into rice bowls, wraps, salads, burritos, gravies and curries, noodles and pastas, pizza, soups and stews, meat entrees, burgers, sandwiches, and others. Noodles and Pastas accounted a significant share in the Americas ready-to-eat meals market in 2022. Ready-to-eat pasta meals are available in various types, such as spaghetti, penne, fettuccine, and macaroni. Pasta meals include protein sources such as shrimp, meatballs, chicken, and plant-based protein sources. Packaged pasta meals are designed for quick-serve and require minimal cooking. Ready-to-eat pasta meals are served in single-serving containers, thereby making portion control and reheating easier.
Based on category, Americas ready-to-eat meals market is segmented into gluten-free, and conventional. Americas ready-to-eat meals market share for the conventional segment was largest in 2022. The demand for conventional ready-to-eat meals is expected to decrease as consumers are becoming more health-conscious and prefer healthy alternatives such as gluten-free ready-to-eat meals. However, conventional ready-to-eat meals are easily available in the market; thus, many customers prefer them based on their high availability. The rise in health concerns is a major factor driving the demand for gluten-free, ready-to-eat meals.
