NEW YORK, Aug. 24, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --

"The potato processing market projected to grow at a CAGR of 5.3%."
The potato processing market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 5.3% from 2017, to reach USD 30.85 billion by 2022. The demand for processed potato is projected to be on the rise, owing to factors such as the increasing demand for convenience and processed potato-based food products, and growth in distribution channels such as quick service restaurants (QSRs) and retail stores. Growth in the demand for potato chips and increasing demand for frozen potato products are fueling the demand for potato processing. However, the market for potato processing is expected to fluctuate due to its high dependency on a regular supply of potato varieties at a reasonable price for uninterrupted operations. Also, the health issues associated with the consumption of processed potatoes such as obesity and diabetes, along with high costs incurred for storage and transportation can pose as a restraint for the market growth.
