"Market Intelligence that Adds Flavour to Your Success"
The global smoked sausage market is driven by the growing consumption of various processed and packed meat products. Processes, including smoking, curing, and salting, are being used to improve the taste and retain the qualities of meat products, including processed meat products such as sausages. Moreover, rising disposable incomes in developing regions allow consumers to explore new food options, including premium smoked sausages. The consumption of ready-to-eat and ready-to-cook food products has also been rising, propelling manufacturers to launch innovative products. For instance, in July 2021, Johnsonville, a sausage company headquartered in the U.S., launched a new product line of fully cooked smoked sausage. The new product line features a smoked sausage flavor and is made with premium cuts of pork with no MSG.
Furthermore, the rising popularity of flavored meat products has been fueling the demand for smoked sausages. Manufacturers have been applying various spices, herbs, seasoning, marinades, and other ingredients to the sausages to offer flavored texture and quality. For instance, in November 2022, Zatarain's, an American food and spice company, launched a new smoked sausage with a Blackened Seasoned Chicken flavor. The new product is inspired by the classic Louisiana Cajun dish Blackened Chicken, which is seasoned with spices such as oregano, thyme, paprika, and black and red pepper.
