Top 10 Snacks Companies in India 2023

The Indian snacks market size reached INR 38,603 Crore in 2022. Snacks refer to food products that are smaller in portion size than the main meal and are usually consumed as a side dish or appetizer. They are either baked or fried and prepared using various ingredients such as corn, potatoes, grains, flour, fruits, nuts, oil, and vegetables. These products are available in sweet, salty, spicy, and sour flavors in processed and packaged variants. In India, various snacks, such as chips, popcorn, salted peanuts, murukku, papads, and fryums, are gaining traction among individuals due to their satisfying taste, long shelf-life, and easy storage.

As per the analysis by IMARC Group, the top India snacks companies are introducing natural, organic, vegan, low-calorie, and gluten-free snacks due to the rising health consciousness among consumers. They are also launching snacks in different flavors, shapes, textures, and seasonings to attract a larger consumer base and expand their product portfolio. For instance, Bikano, a brand of Bikanervala Foods Private Limited, recently launched several new savory snacks in the market. The company launched aloo bhujia in lemon chaska, daal mixture, and dry fruit mixture flavors. Besides this, various luxurious snack brands are offering premium, gourmet, and clean-label snack variants to strengthen their foothold in the Indian market. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach INR 70,731 Crore by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 10.4% during 2023-2028.
