The history of breakfast cereals in India is comparatively brief compared to Western markets. Traditionally, homemade dishes like idli, dosa, paratha, poha, and upma have dominated Indian breakfasts. Nevertheless, the impact of globalization, urbanization, and contemporary hectic lifestyles has induced a shift in breakfast preferences. The entry of Kellogg's into the Indian market during the 1990s marked a significant milestone, opening doors for both domestic and international players.
Recent years have witnessed substantial growth in the Indian breakfast cereal market due to various factors. The escalating pace of life in urban areas has fostered a heightened demand for swift and convenient breakfast options. Cereals, with their quick preparation and nutritional value, have become the preferred choice for busy urban professionals and students.
Furthermore, a surge in health consciousness among Indian consumers has played a pivotal role in the market's expansion. With increased awareness of the importance of a nutritious breakfast, many cereal manufacturers have responded by offering healthier options with low sugar content, high fiber, and enriched with vitamins and minerals.
