Background to Study

This research service analyses the Mexican shelf-life food additives market, observing the

period 2009 to 2017. The base year is 2011 and prices used to forecast revenues from

2012 to 2018 are those average product prices of manufacturers and distributors in 2011.

The Mexican market for shelf life food additives is considered to be in an growth stage, as

the market has already many possibilities to grow through new applications and industry

investment.

The Mexican shelf-life food additives market is fragmented, dominated by multinational

manufacturers and all consumed products are currently imported. In some cases, these

major manufacturers do not compete directly, as they are not represented in all product

segments. For the purpose of this research service, the Mexican shelf life food additives

market is analyzed by product type.
