Key Elements Fueling Growth in the Chicken Bucket Market
The rising consumption of chicken in developing economies plays a crucial role in expanding the chicken bucket market. Chicken’s popularity stems from its rich nutritional profile, including protein, niacin, selenium, and phosphorus, making it a preferred choice for health-conscious consumers. Its low-calorie and high-protein nature supports weight management and lean muscle maintenance, further boosting demand.

Chicken buckets serve as disposable packaging in various sizes designed to conveniently serve chicken and other takeaway foods. For instance, in October 2024, WATT Poultry reported that France and Italy experienced over a 20% increase in six-month poultry production compared to 2022. Additionally, EU poultry meat production during the first half of 2024 rose by 4% year-on-year, with the European Commission projecting a 3% growth in poultry meat exports for 2024. This growing consumption trend in emerging markets is a key driver behind the chicken bucket market’s expansion.
