The SAM food allergen testing market is expected to grow from US$ 67.76 million in 2018 to US$ 130.64 million by 2027; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 7.6% from 2019 to 2027.



Brazil and Argentina are major economies in SAM. Anaphylaxis and food allergy are an increasing public health risk in developed countries. Prevalence is higher in young children, but recent studies also indicate it is also becoming more common in adolescents and young adults. Moreover, there is now also growing evidence of the increasing prevalence of food allergies in rapidly developing countries. The food allergen incidences are on a rapid rise in developed regions such as SAM.Approximately 40% of children in this region with food allergies have multiple food allergies, which means they are allergic to more than one food type

Further, the ongoing COVID 19 pandemic affects the SAM food allergen testing market due to reduced production activities of the food industries. The virus has critically affected several countries such as the Brazil and Argentina. The majority of the countries have imposed lockdown and/or transportation restrictions, which has lowered production of several industries due to lack of manpower. Brazil has reported the highest number of COVID-19 cases in SAM, followed by Ecuador, Chile, Peru, and Argentina, among others. Governments of South American countries have taken an array of actions to protect their citizens and contain COVID-19 spread. The region is anticipated to generate lower export revenues, both due to the drop in commodity prices and reduction in export volumes, especially to China and  the US, and several European countries, which are important trade partners of SAM countries. Containment measures in several SAM countries would adversely affect the performance of the manufacturing sectors for at least the next quarter, with an expected rebound once the epidemic is in control.

With the new features and technologies, vendors can attract new customers and expand their footprints in emerging markets. This factor is likely to drive the SAM food allergen testing market. The SAM food allergen testing market is expected to grow at a good CAGR during the forecast period.
