North America Natural Sausage Casings Market - Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast (2018-2025)

The North America Natural Sausage Casings Market is expected to reach $1,016.63 million by 2025, at a CAGR of 3.0% during the forecast period of 2018 to 2025. Increasing population, urbanization, meat production, and meat consumption across the North America; consumer preference to natural casings over artificial casings; and rising number of fast food restaurant chains are the key factors driving the growth of the North America natural sausage casings market.

According to the World Bank, the population of North America has increased from 337.4 million in 2008 to 362.4 million in 2017. As a result, consumers are being exposed to a much wider choice and better availability of sausage within the urban environment, compared to those who are living in rural areas. This urbanization trend contributes significantly towards improved living standards and rising incomes which in turn influence the affordability of sausage and processed meat products to a greater extent, thus leading to the significant increase in the meat and sausages consumption and production across the North America.

According to the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), in 2015, the average American adult consumed 90 kilograms (198.5 pounds) of meat, while the global average during that same year was 34 kilograms (75 pounds). By 2024, these numbers are projected to increase to 94.1 kilograms (207.5 pounds) per person in the U.S.; Also, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), in the U.S., the total red meat and poultry production was up by 2.6% in 2015, and up by 3.1% in 2016, and up another 2.9% in 2017. Therefore, increasing population, urbanization, meat consumption, and production across the North America have direct impact on the increased demand of natural sausage casings from sausage manufacturers and meat producers around the North America.
