The market's growth is attributed to consumers' rapidly growing preference for convenience foods. These days, people have different lifestyles and social values, which is fueling the demand for convenience food. The digital technology enabling them to do faster shopping has increased their dependence on ready-to-eat meals. These products are available in various varieties and forms, such as microwave meals, takeaway meals, instant pot noodles, and other types of meals, which has increased food availability in the UK. The rise in consumption of ready-to-eat food has led consumers to purchase more ready-to-eat meals in the region. However, owing to the lockdowns caused by the COVID-19 outbreak, consumers have resorted to cooking at home, which hampered the market to some extent.
In 2021, North America held the key share of the global breakfast cereals market. However, Asia Pacific is estimated to register the highest CAGR in the market during the forecast period. The market in Asia Pacific is segmented into China, India, Japan, South Korea, and Australia. APAC countries, such as South Korea, China, and Japan, are among the major food and beverage markets. The region is also home to numerous breakfast cereals manufacturers, which are growing due to increased domestic demand for packaged beverages. The rising production of beverages in Asia Pacific and increasing preference for ready to eat foods would contribute to the market growth in the region during the forecast period.

The disruption of the food & beverages industry due to the economic slowdown caused by the outbreak also hindered the market's growth. However, businesses have recovered thus as previously imposed limitations are being eased across various countries.
Moreover, the introduction of COVID-19 vaccines by governments of different countries has further eased the situation, leading to a rise in business activities worldwide.
