Saudi Arabians are the only nation that consumes more bread per person. With the main course, bread is consumed. It can hold the meat and vegetables and be dipped in gravy. The most popular bread in the United Arab Emirates is tandoori bread, a single-layered flatbread of medium-hard wheat cooked in a shell oven. In addition, bread is currently the most popular type of baked good and is predicted to continue to remain so in the future. These factors influence the growth of bakery ingredients in GCC.

• Consumer shift toward veganism.

An increasing shift in consumer attitudes toward veganism is driving the expansion of the GCC bakery ingredients market. This is due to customers being more conscious of sustainability, social effect, and health issues.

GCC Bakery Ingredients Market Geographical Outlook:

• Saudi Arabia is projected to be the prominent bakery ingredients market in the GCC region. 

The GCC region provides a vast opportunity for market players to sell their bakery goods and satisfy consumer demand. Saudi Arabia has the largest proportion of the GCC countries, but Bahrain, Kuwait, and the United Arab Emirates have the quickest economies in the area. Due to the country's climatic circumstances, Kuwait's domestic agriculture output is nonexistent, yet the demand for bakery goods or their ingredients is always rising. The 20th-largest market in the world for bread goods is Saudi Arabia. Government programs like the NITAQAT program, which encourages companies to recruit Saudi citizens, caused the market to drop in ranking.
