The Food Safety Testing Market is expected to reach $29.6 billion by 2027, at a CAGR of 7.6% during the forecast period of 2020 to 2027. The rising incidence of foodborne diseases, growing consumer awareness regarding food safety, stringent food safety regulations, and rising demand for convenience and packaged food products are some of the major factors driving the growth of the food safety testing market.
