North America Gluten-Free Food Market by Application (Gluten-Free Bakery & Confectionery, Gluten-Free Breakfast Cereals, Gluten-Free Snacks, Gluten-Free Baking Mix & Flour, Gluten-Free Meat & Poultry), by Sales Channel - Analysis & Forecast to 2019

The North America gluten-free market is estimated to record a CAGR of 12.0%, in the forecast period of 2014 to 2019. Since people who are gluten-intolerant and suffer from celiac disease avoid foods containing gluten, such as wheat, rye and barley, gluten-free food is an active replacement for normal diets. There has also been a growing awareness about celiac disease and its causes which has further contributed to the growth of the gluten-free food market of North America.

Gluten-free bakery & confectionary, gluten-free break-fast cereals, gluten free snacks, gluten-free baking mixes & flour, gluten –free meat & poultry products and other gluten-free foods are  different options available for the patients who are suffering from celiac disease. However, there is a higher cost involved with production of these food products due to the additional processing levels required for rendering the food gluten-free.

The North American gluten-free food market is dominated by U.S., followed by Canada.  In the U.S., conventional sales channel is dominated by the gluten-free food consumption by accounting for more than half of the market in 2014, whereas gluten-free bakery & confectionery contributed the highest share to the country’s gluten-free food market among its types. The trend is expected to remain similar during the forecast period of 2014 to 2019, resulting in similar market dominance in 2019.

(U.S.), Hain Celestial (U.S.) and Boulder Brand (U.S.) among others, expanding their market shares in the region.

Celiac disease is a lifelong, autoimmune disease caused by the reaction of body to gluten. It affects approximately one in every 100 people. When people suffering from celiac disease consume gluten, an immune reaction to the lining of the small intestine is caused, resulting in a range of symptoms including bloating, diarrhea, nausea, wind, constipation, tiredness, headaches, sudden or unexpected weight loss (but not in all cases), hair loss and anemia.

The only treatment for people suffering from celiac disease or gluten-intolerance is removing gluten from their diet forever. The increasing number of celiac and gluten intolerant patients has increased the demand for gluten-free food products.
