The growth of the DTC food market is driven by the rising adoption of convenience foods, growing online purchases of food products, and the increasing number of DTC food brands.

In 2024, the food segment is expected to account for the larger share of the global DTC food market. The large market share of this segment is attributed to the increasing demand for convenience foods, changes in lifestyle and food habits, growing consumer inclination towards online shopping, rising demand for nutritional and fortifying food products, increasing innovative food products, and rising spending on healthy and nutritious diets.

In 2024, the online distribution channel segment is expected to account for the larger share of the global DTC food market owing to the increasing preference for online shopping among consumers, the convenience offered by online platforms, the growing penetration of the internet, and the high popularity among food and beverage manufacturers of creating websites to display and sell their products directly to consumers.
