Sourdough Market
US$ 3.2 Bn Sourdough Market Growing Steadily on Account of Growing Application in Bread
Productions
The US$ 3.2 Bn sourdough market will continue to be positively influenced by increasing application in
bread production. Of the US$ 3.2 Bn worth of sourdough sold in 2016, demand from the bread segment
totalled US$ 2.36 Bn. This segment is projected to increase at a CAGR of 7.1% through 2026. The
dominance of the bread segment can be gauged from the fact that other key application segments –
pizza, buns, cakes, cookies, and waffles & pancakes – collectively accounted for nearly 27% revenue
share.
Western Europe continues to the largest market for sourdough, accounting for nearly 38% share of total
revenues in 2016. Adoption of sourdough in Western Europe food manufacturing units continues to
remain strong. Future Market Insights estimates the Western Europe sourdough market to increase at a
CAGR of 7.1% through 2026. In terms of revenues, the market is projected to grow 2X from its 2016
market valuation of US$ 1.21 Bn. In terms of volume, over 552 thousand tonnes of sourdough was sold in
2016; FMI estimates it to reach over 975 thousand tonnes in 2026.
Opportunities in the Global Sourdough Market
 Increasing demand for clean-label products has presented a lucrative opportunity for businesses
 Use of sourdough is also gaining traction owing to its application in preparation of foods that require
fermentation

Sourdough Market
Key Supply-side and Demand-side Drivers
 According to Future Market Insights’ report, demand for sourdough is increasing on account of its
beneficial functional properties. Its property of enhancing flavour and texture is a key factor for its
applications in the F&B sector, especially bakery sector
 Increase in the number of artisan bakeries is positively influencing the demand for sourdough.
Particularly high demand for type 1 sourdough – made using only wild yeasts – is being witnessed in
artisan bakeries
 Availability of sourdough products on e-commerce stores is also contributing to increasing sales
 Growing demand for sourdough from the fast food and bakery sector is creating sizeable growth
opportunities for manufacturers
 High cost of sourdough products is a major impediment to their widespread adoption in developing
countries.
Key Trends Expected to Shape Global Sourdough Market
 Dehydrated sourdough (Type III) is gaining traction in the bakery industry. Freeze-drying remains the
preferred dehydration technique for manufacturers.

Sourdough Market
 Manufacturers are using devitalised sourdough for enhancing the aroma of products. Devitalised
sourdough does not contain live organisms, enhancing its use as an aromatic agent
 Consumer demand for healthy food products has resulted into the launch of chocolate sourdough
loaves. Further, Future Market Insights identified increasing use of type I sourdough.
Sourdough Market Forecast and Analysis by Starter Culture
Type III starter culture currently accounts for nearly half of the revenue share of the global sourdough
market. Over 773 thousand tonnes of sourdough was sold in 2016; by the end of the forecast period,
Future Market Insights estimates global volumes to surpass 1.3 million tonnes.
Key companies profiled by Future Market Insights in its report include Puratos NV, Ernst Böcker GmbH &
Co. KG, IREKS GmbH, Kampffmeyer Mühlen GmbH, Philibert Saveurs, Lesaffre, Dilbeek, Minden,
Kulmbach, Hamburg, Pont-de-Veyle, and Marcq-en-Barœul.
