According to UnivDatos, the Food Automation Market was valued at approximately USD 12.3 Billion in 2023 and is expected to grow at a robust CAGR of around 7.0% during the forecast period (2024-2032).
Automation Transforming the Food & Beverage Industry
Automation has become a critical element in improving efficiency, reducing labor dependency, and enhancing product quality across food production facilities. According to the International Robotics Federation, nearly 1.3 million industrial robots were installed globally between 2015 and 2018. Food manufacturers have reported a 25% boost in productivity after integrating robotics into their production lines.
Additionally, many food processors require frequent product variations without altering existing production lines—making flexible automation solutions essential. Data from the Association for Packaging and Processing Technologies indicates that 33% of food processing operations already utilize automation, while 94% of food packaging operations were using robotics as early as 2018.
Labor Shortages Driving Increased Automation Demand
A significant shortage of skilled labor continues to push food manufacturers toward automated systems. The Association of Labor Providers reported that 70% of food and beverage companies faced shortages of low-skilled and unskilled labor in 2018. Automation and robotics serve as a vital solution to this challenge.
Simultaneously, AI-driven platforms are unlocking new opportunities across the food sector. In 2018, 57% of 1,300 surveyed institutions had already adopted artificial intelligence, while an additional 18% planned to implement AI in 2019. AI technologies are expected to create an annual benefit of USD 1.2 trillion, highlighting their transformative potential. By 2021, more than 80% of customer interactions were projected to be managed using AI solutions.
AI and Machine Learning Accelerating Growth in Food Automation
The rapid integration of AI and machine learning is propelling market growth as global food companies seek solutions that enhance speed, flexibility, accuracy, traceability, and operational efficiency. As AI investments continue to rise—growing by nearly 300% in 2017 alone—automation technologies are becoming essential for competitiveness in the modern food manufacturing landscape.
