With the gradual improvement of living standards, people’s diet types continue to be diversified. Fruits, vegetables, meat, eggs, milk, potatoes, beans, and other foods provide people with a variety of choices. As the population continues to grow, food demand continues to rise, but total cereal consumption gradually declines. Among them, the problem of overcapacity of traditional flour is particularly prominent. More and more people are looking for healthier, more nutritional value and unique taste flour products. Special flours, such as whole wheat, multigrain, organic, and gluten-free flours, have become a trend in the modern food industry. Flour producers not only need to adjust the production volume of traditional flour but also need to innovate and invest. Under this circumstance, milling equipment and special flour weighing packing machine is constantly being upgraded and developed.

China's Special Flour Market Size

According to Chinese market research reports, annual per capita flour consumption has dropped from approximately 0.07 tons/person in 2012 to approximately 0.06 tons/person in 2018. Based on this calculation, China’s wheat flour consumption in 2018 was approximately 77.3 million tons, a year-on-year decrease of approximately 1.6%. But compared with ordinary flour, the market demand for special flour is increasing. Therefore, agricultural producers are also paying more attention to the production of special flour.

China’s special flour production increased rapidly from 11.8 million tons in 2015 to 20.5 million tons in 2019. The compound annual growth rate from 2015 to 2019 was 14.9%, accounting for 29.7% of the overall flour production in 2019. The expected production of specialty flour is to grow at a higher rate than the overall industry due to the increasing demand.
