Despite an extremely slow moving annual growth rate, increased tortilla consumption is predicted in the coming years-mostly supported by population growth, especially among Hispanics, as well as a continuation in the trend of consumer tortilla consumption preferences.Tortillas have successfully positioned itself in the Latin American market. With a revenue share of +48% in 2017, Latin America clearly dominated the global tortilla market, in terms of value sales, substantially driven by the rapidly growing Hispanic population in the United States. In countries like Mexico, more than 94% of the tortillas are processed or produced using corn as its main source. Flour tortillas have a fairly high value share in the global tortillas market, compared to other variants such as tortilla chips, taco shells, tostadas, and corn tortillas. However, tortilla chips are expected to witness significant consumption in the coming years.
Research also suggests that, due to increasing demand for Mexican cuisine such as such as tortillas, nachos, enchiladas, tacos, and tamales, especially in North America and Latin America, tortillas, in the on-the-go snacks format, have been gaining traction. Busy lifestyles, deteriorating health conditions, and increasingly urban working population are some factors contributing to the consumption increase of tortillas, as per convenience. Moreover, an in-depth consumer sentiment analysis also indicates that more than 40% consumers buy tortilla products on a weekly basis and +50% consumers buy from modern trade stores like hypermarkets and supermarkets, owing to easy availability of the product at reasonable prices. Tortilla flour-based products, being one of the main Mexican foods, is gaining traction among its target customers throughout the foodservice industry.
