According to Technavio market research analysts, the global packaged basmati rice market will grow at a CAGR of over 11% during the forecast period. The growing demand for rice as a staple food is a major factor driving the market’s growth.
Rice is the fastest-growing food staple in Africa and Latin America.

Even in developed countries and regions such as the US and the European Union (EU), per capita consumption of rice continues to grow, partly due to immigration from Asian countries.
