What is Packaged Atta?
Packaged atta refers to finely ground commercial wheat flour with a uniform texture that is packaged and sold in sealed bags or containers for consumer use. Packaged atta brands typically provide flour enriched with nutrients, such as iron and folic acid while ensuring consistent quality and texture for optimal baking and cooking outcomes. In addition to this, majority of the packaged atta brands provide nutritional information on their packaging, thereby enabling consumers make informed choices based on their dietary needs. Also, the packaging of atta helps to extend the shelf life by protecting it from moisture and external contaminants and offers convenience for handling and storage. It is commonly used in the formulation of various wheat-based products such as chapatis, bread, and pastries.
COVID-19 Impact:
The COVID-19 pandemic outbreak has caused a severe problem in the packaged atta industry and imposed unprecedented challenges in India. It led to a significant increase in demand for packaged goods, propelled by the growing concerns regarding safety and hygiene. The consumers rushed to stock up on essential items, including packaged atta, due to the fear of potential product unavailability during the lockdown. The sudden rise in demand resulted in the trend of bulk buying and hoarding of staple food items and caused severe supply shortages in the market. The increasing preference for packaged atta was also influenced by the shift in shopping patterns toward supermarkets and online platforms predominantly dealing in packaged items, even in semi-urban and rural areas of India. However, as the COVID-19 cases came toward a decline, the supply chain and market supply were increased and the balance has been restored, and the market is anticipated to face steady growth opportunities in future.
