The industry's top-selling products are crisps and other snacks made from potatoes, but potato starch is the product of the future thanks to its wide range of applications. Despite market saturation and the negative impact of the coronavirus crisis on the catering industry and therefore also on sales of frozen potato products such as French fries, industry sales grew by an average of 4.9% per year in the period from 2020 to 2025. For 2025, IBISWorld expects sales to fall by 0.9% to 4.2 billion euros.As a result of greater market concentration in food retailing, the market power of large supermarket chains and discounters has been increasing for several years now. This development is contributing to food retailers exerting more pressure on producers in price negotiations. In addition, smaller producers of potato products in particular are becoming increasingly dependent on supermarkets and discounters, further weakening their negotiating position. Due to rising net household incomes, consumer spending on non-basic consumer goods has also increased, which has led to growing sales of crisps and other potato products. The rise in producer prices for fruit and vegetables, particularly potatoes, in recent years has increased the cost of raw materials. These costs can only be partially passed on to customers by industry players through price increases, which has a negative impact on their profits.In the period from 2025 to 2030, industry turnover will increase by an average of 1.7% per year to 4.5 billion euros. The large companies in the industry will continue to expand their leading market position in the coming years, and the number of companies in the potato processing industry is expected to increase slightly. The German potato processing industry faces the challenge that market concentration will continue to increase on both the supplier and customer side. This development could increase the negotiating power of suppliers and buyers and thus limit the producers' room for manoeuvre. The greater bargaining power of suppliers and buyers is likely to have a negative impact on manufacturers' profit margins. A diversification of suppliers could become necessary in order to reduce dependencies and balance out price fluctuations.

Snack food producers are undergoing a significant transformation driven by consumer preferences shifting toward healthier and sustainable options. The nuts and seeds segment alone accounts for over 30.0% of revenue in 2025, reflecting increasing demand for nutrient-dense, plant-based choices. Brands like KIND and Blue Diamond are innovating with nut-based products infused with probiotics and superfoods to meet this demand for snacks with functional health benefits. Companies are countering rising purchasing costs, fueled by agricultural price volatility due to geopolitical tensions, by diversifying supply chains and investing in efficiency-enhancing technology. They're also ramping up digital marketing efforts to stand out in a competitive, health-conscious market. Because of heightened volatility, producers have struggled to maintain steady sales growth, with revenue growing at a CAGR of less than 0.1% over the past five years, reaching an estimated $49.8 billion in 2025. Heightened competition has prompted innovation as top snack producers pivot to emphasize health and wellness. Eco-friendly packaging and sustainable sourcing are becoming critical strategies for maintaining relevance and securing long-term revenue streams. Companies like Frito-Lay and General Mills have broadened their offerings with gluten-free and vegan options. Notably, Frito-Lay's "Simply" line saw a 15.0% sales climb in 2024, underscoring the impact of consumer demand for healthier alternatives. However, rising input costs pose significant challenges, especially for key commodities like corn and wheat. To stabilize, producers are pursuing vertical integration and alternative sourcing. While average snack producer profit are expected to recover to 12.3% in 2025, intensified operational costs, including wages, are pressing companies to optimize strategies for profitability amid growing competition from imports and a preference for exotic flavors. Over the next five years, the industry will continue being shaped by the unrelenting demand for health-conscious snacks. By 2030, the health-food market is expected to generate $42.0 billion, driven by an interest in low-sugar, high-protein and plant-based options. Sustainability will be a linchpin for industry transformation, with eco-friendly packaging set to double by 2030. As regulatory pressures mount, companies embracing sustainable practices will likely navigate more smoothly, gaining a competitive edge from environmentally-conscious production. The industry's success will hinge on innovation, supply chain resilience and the integration of diverse, sustainable ingredients. Revenue will climb at a CAGR of 1.5% over the next five years, reaching $53.6 billion in 2030.
