The growth of the sodium benzoate market is expected to be driven by increase in demand for benzoate from cosmetics and food industries. In certain foods and seasonings, including cranberries, cinnamon, prunes, and apples, sodium benzoate is found naturally.  Furthermore, rapid expansion of the pharmaceutical and cosmetics industries plays a vital role in increasing demand for sodium benzoates, which, in turn, is expected to fuel the market growth in the years to come.

Market scenario: opportunities and challenges

The global sodium benzoate industry is expected to grow at a rapid rate in the near future, owing to surge in demand for sodium benzoate. New scopes for sodium benzoate are emerging for the wealthy, millennial population. This is attributed to the fact that population of developed countries is witnessing a huge shift in their food habits. However, the use of hazardous chemicals in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and food is strictly regulated and restricted by government authorities, which negatively impacts the rate of growth of the sodium benzoate market.

COVID-19 scenario analysis

Owing to the COVID-19 pandemic, the global sodium benzoate market is expected to witness decline in growth rate during the forecast period, owing to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. COVID-19 may influence the global market for sodium benzoate in three major ways, by actively impacting production & demand, by generating supply chain & business instability. The sodium benzoate industry is anticipated to experience a direct impact for the next one or two years, if the growth of the food industry declines, as it is one of the key consumers of sodium benzoate.
