Flatbread is a flat, unleavened bread made with flour, salt, and water. Flatbreads are usually baked on a hot surface or in an oven. Flatbread has been around for thousands of years and was consumed by soldiers during wartime and nomads because it was easy to carry. It’s easy to make and is inexpensive. Wheat is the main ingredient in flatbread as it has a high gluten content that helps make dough elastic and stretchy. Flatbreads are popular for their simplicity and versatility. One can enjoy them as a side dish, appetizer, or was even used as a dish to be eaten of. In modern times, flatbread is generally eaten plain or with topping options such as cheese, tomato sauce, hummus, etc. The most common types of flatbreads are tortillas, chapati, and naan. Flatbreads are also seen as a replacement for traditional bread because they are often healthier.

Flatbread has been a staple food in Eastern Africa for centuries. With a growing population and increased demand, it is becoming harder to the source. In recent years, this staple food has been supplemented with wheat flour and rice flour to meet the demands of those who can’t afford it. This has led to a decline in quality as machines and not hands are now harvesting grains. Middle Eastern flatbread is a type of bread that is round-shaped and cooked on a griddle, often with herbs sprinkled atop the dough before it is flattened. They are often used as the base for pizza or to scoop dips. The Commonwealth of Independent States in Eastern Europe is home to many different cultures – each with its culinary traditions. A staple food in this region, this leavened baked product is a common household item and a popular component of breakfast and lunches. Many different types of flatbread vary from country to country, but most have some form of wheat flour as an ingredient. One example is Belarusian flatbread, cooked over an open fire in a large frying pan called a choroba. The dough for this bread was typically made from wheat flour, but sourdough rye flour is also common.

Global Flatbread Market Revenue (US$ Mn), 2021–2031

The global flatbread market has increased demand due to changing consumer preferences and lifestyles. The importance of bread has diminished in all countries owing to the rise of other fast foods and beverages because of their convenience and the need not to waste time cooking. However, these fast foods are unhealthy compared to flatbreads, which is expected to influence the flatbread industry positively. The high costs associated with producing xenon gases and the limited availability of supplies will likely hamper the xenon gas market. The replacement of xenon gas with LED lights is a major substitute and may present future threats to this market.

There has been a shift in people’s diet as more and more individuals have become health conscious. Along with this change, there has been a greater demand for healthier bread products that offer a range of flavors. The flatbread market in Africa is one of the fastest-growing markets in the food industry as it continues to evolve to cater to the needs of consumers.
The global market for flatbread is continuing to grow at a rapid pace. With more than 1 billion people in Europe and more than 1.7 billion people in Asia consuming flatbread daily, this demand has created numerous opportunities for companies to produce products domestically or abroad for foreign markets.

The popularity of using rice in some countries is on the rise, which has negatively impacted the demand for wheat. Another major challenge is that some regions have started to use more corn flour in their flatbreads due to availability and cost-efficiency. These challenges have created obstacles for other producers who rely on traditional ingredients to create their products. As such, demand for these products may be hampered, although to this day, it remains high
