The cookies market size is projected to increase by USD 28.36 billion at a CAGR of 6.82% between 2023 and 2028. The market's growth is influenced by factors such as the increasing focus on product premiumization, the heightened demand for healthier cookie options, and the rising sales of cookies within on-trade channels. Consumers are also looking for convenient and indulgent snack options.
The growing emphasis on product premiumization underscores the evolving nature of consumer preferences and the demand for high-quality offerings. The heightened interest in healthier cookie alternatives reflects shifting dietary preferences and wellness considerations among consumers, who are looking for nutrients such as vitamins and minerals.

Additionally, consumers are drawn to unique flavors, shapes, and packaging innovations, driving manufacturers to constantly innovate and diversify their product offerings.
Key drivers of the cookies market include changing consumer preferences, convenience, and the widespread availability of cookies in supermarkets, convenience stores, and online platforms. Moreover, the increasing adoption of smartphones and digital marketing strategies enables companies to reach a wider audience and enhance brand visibility.
The cookies market faces competition from other snack options like chips and fruits. It also has to contend with health concerns related to obesity and poor diets, and the need to address dietary restrictions such as gluten and lactose intolerance.
