As Brazil's food processing industry expands, ensuring food safety and quality becomes increasingly crucial. Mold contamination can lead to significant economic losses and health risks. Therefore, food processors will invest more in effective inhibitors to ensure their products meet safety standards and quality expectations. This will boost the demand for advanced inhibitors that offer reliable protection. According to the United States Department of Agriculture, the country’s food processing sector registered revenues of US$208 billion in 2022, an increase of 16.6 percent compared to 2021. The result represents 10.8 percent of the national GDP. The sector comprises over 38,000 companies, most of which are small and medium-sized industries. With a high livestock population in UAE comes a greater need for these inhibitors in animal feed to prevent mold growth and maintain feed quality. This increased demand for these inhibitors in the livestock sector is expected to drive growth in the market. According to the Ministry of Climate Change & Environment, the United Arab Emirates has a significant wealth of livestock. The total number of camels in the country is estimated at 450,000, while sheep and goat herds are estimated at about 5 million, thus, constituting an important component of both food security and the national economy. Hence, increasing food processing industry and high livestock population in the region is driving the growth of the market.
