The global food safety testing market is anticipated to grow at a substantial rate during the forecast period owing to increasing awareness among customers regarding food safety. The growing demand for packaged and processed food is also supporting the growth of food safety testing market. Further, the rising prevalence of various diseases which might occur due to food contamination is also acting as growth driver for this market. Moreover, increasing requirement for quality tests of processed and unprocessed meats is expected to fuel the global food safety testing market by 2026.

Stringent regulations related to food safety in various regions is further contributing to the increasing demand of food safety testing. Increasing import and export of food items has led to increased contaminant levels due to improper monitoring. This is further creating a need for food safety testing. Additionally, growth in food & beverage industry is poised to support the growth of food safety testing market in the coming years.

Global food safety testing market can be segmented based on technology, food tested, target tested and region. Based on technology, the market is segmented into traditional and rapid technologies. Among them, the traditional technology dominated the market, especially in developing economies owing to its low cost and high number of service providers using traditional methods for food testing. However, the rapid technology is expected to undergo the fastest growth by 2026 as they give accurate results in limited timespan.

Regionally, North America dominated the market in 2020 and is expected to continue its dominance until 2026 due to stringent regulations relating to food safety and increasing outbreaks of foodborne illnesses. Also, technological advancements and high competitiveness among food manufacturers is leading to high demand for food safety testing services in the region.

Major companies operating in the global food safety testing market include SGS S.A., Romer Labs Division Holding GmbH, Intertek Group plc, Bureau Veritas SA, NSF International, Eurofins Scientific SE, Microbac Laboratories, Inc., Covance Inc., Merieux NutriSciences and Nova Biologicals, Inc., among others. The key trend being observed in the market is merger & acquisitions to expand the global market share. The recent outbreak of COVID-19 has also led to the surge in demand for food safety testing services.
