North America is the fastest-growing market for hydrocolloids and is projected to record the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The North American market is completely driven by the US, which accounted for nearly 84.0% of the market share in 2017. The US has a large market for bakery, confectionery, convenience food, and packaged food products; hence, it constitutes a major share in the market. Consumers in the US are calorie-conscious, due to which low-calorie and low-fat foods are popular in the country. The increasing prevalence of obesity and cardiac diseases have led to an increasing demand for natural and low-calorie food products among consumers. Food manufacturers are therefore concentrating on the application of natural hydrocolloids and their functions as fat replacers.
