The market was pegged at $2.04 billion in 2020, showing the rapid pace at which it has expanded. Allied reports a 10.4% CAGR of the global food robotics market from now until 2031.
A surge of safety regulations coupled with an unstable labor pool are a just few of the factors driving this growth. The pandemic affected consumption patterns and operations logistics as social distancing became imperative.
