2012-11-25 10:24:38 - Fast Market Research recommends "Tortilla Production in the US" from IBISWorld, now available

Wrapped up: Positive demographic trends and demand for convenient foods will sustain growth

The Tortilla Production industry has experienced strong growth in the last five years, making it the fastest growing segment within the entire baking industry. An increase in the population of Hispanics and the rising awareness of the health benefits of tortillas have been the main contributors of growth. In the next five years, manufacturers will rely less on labor-intensive methods and shift to a high-speed, high-volume manufacturing process to boost automation.

Firms in this industry manufacture tortillas. They purchase various ingredients (such as flour, corn, corn starch, salt and seasoning) from other food manufacturers and then sell the tortillas to downstream buyers in both flexible and paperboard container packaging.

The final product is sold to grocery wholesalers and retailers, caterers and other food service contractors, which then distribute them to consumers. Tortilla chips are not included in this industry.
