The market is expected to grow at a considerable rate throughout the forecast period due to various favorable developments ongoing in the market. The global market for table salt is expected to be driven heavily owing to its wide use in various geographies in households as well as restaurants, hotels and cafes.

Table Salt Market Drivers:

• The market is expected to be boosted by various expansion projects by players in the food and beverage industry, as table salt finds significant application at these locations.

For instance, in August 2022, Taco Bell announced a pan-India investment of USD 100 million in order to expand its number of outlets in the country. The company had a total of 100 outlets in India as of August 2022 and aimed to increase that number to 600 outlets in the years to come with this investment. Such expansion projects by players dealing with processed foods are expected to drive the demand for table salt as well.

• The market growth is anticipated to be restrained by the ill effects of sodium.

According to WHO, salt is the most common source of sodium and a rise in sodium intake can lead to increased chances of cardiac ailments and increased blood pressure. As a result, governments around the world have also taken actions of caution regarding the effects of sodium. For instance, the government of Mexico, under the NOM-051, made it mandatory to display a warning on the packaging of products that had more than 350mg of sodium for every 100 grams of the product, beginning in October 2020. Thus, increasing awareness regarding the downside of high sodium intake can make people minimize table salt consumption, thereby, constraining the market growth.

Table Salt Market Product Launches:

• In March 2022, Smart Salt Retail Ltd launched a novel table salt product under its Suolo range of sea salt seasonings with 50% less sodium content in its formulation. Increased sodium intake is harmful to health and thus, with such product launches with low sodium, the market is expected to undergo considerable growth.
• In October 2022, Nutritional International, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and the Government of Ethiopia entered into a 3-year collaborative project in order to develop a table salt which is double fortified with contents like iodine and folic acid. This was done in order to mitigate the cases of NTDs (Neutral Tube Defects) in the country with this innovative formulation.

Offline distribution channels for purchasing table salt are retail outlets, grocery superstores, middlemen dealer agencies for commercial purchase, and other direct distribution networks.
