Sodium Benzoate Market to Grow with a CAGR of 5.98% through 2030

Growing Demand for Processed Foods and Rising Awareness of Food Safety are expected to drive the Global Sodium Benzoate Market growth in the forecast period, 2026-2030

According to TechSci Research report, “Sodium Benzoate Market – Global Industry Size, Share, Trends, Competition Forecast & Opportunities, 2030F”, the Global Sodium Benzoate Market stood at USD 1.38 Billion in 2024 and is anticipated to grow with a CAGR of 5.98% in the forecast period, 2026-2030.

This growth in the sodium benzoate market can largely be attributed to ongoing research and development efforts by key players, who are focused on enhancing the efficiency and safety of their products. Continuous advancements in preservative technology ensure that sodium benzoate remains a dependable solution for food and beverage manufacturers, who must meet growing consumer demands for both convenience and safety.

Sustainability is becoming increasingly important, and the sodium benzoate market is aligning with this trend. Manufacturers are adopting green chemistry practices to optimize production processes and reduce environmental impact. In response to global sustainability goals, there is a growing emphasis on sustainable sourcing, production, and packaging strategies.

The rising consumer preference for processed foods and beverages such as fruit drinks, snacks, and processed meats—has significantly boosted demand for preservatives like sodium benzoate. In particular, trends in several European countries, where meal skipping (especially breakfast) is on the rise, have led to an increased reliance on processed and packaged products. Sodium benzoate plays a crucial role in ensuring product stability and shelf life.

However, the market faced challenges in 2020 due to disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, which led to decreased demand from channel partners, excess inventory, and difficulties in clearing pending stock. The first two quarters of 2020 saw sodium benzoate manufacturers struggle with significant supply chain disruptions, especially in raw materials.

Sodium benzoate’s widespread use as a synthetic preservative, particularly in low-pH products such as jams, salad dressings, carbonated beverages, and pickles, continues to drive market growth. Its popularity is further fueled by its ease of manufacturing, colorless nature, and cost-effectiveness. Additionally, its application in the pharmaceutical sector as a preservative for liquid formulations adds to its market presence.
