India is the second-largest producer of food products next to China and can be the biggest with its food and agricultural sector. The bakery industry in India is one of the most significant contributors to the Country’s processed food industry. Kerala is a highly advanced society and scores high on human development indicators with the highest literacy rate, highest life expectancy, lowest population growth and the highest ratio of females to males in India.

We understand that Kerala welcomes innovative and cutting-edge international courses to provide high standards for the benefit of many students in the State. It has resulted in many overseas institutions keen on admitting students from Kerala and establishing tie-ups with your State institutions. 

Unlike most industries in Kerala, the bakery industry seems to have gained from the Covid-19 pandemic. The industry has grown a lot in recent years and today is one of the key contributors to the economy. The multi-folded growth becomes more prominent because of the hygiene and cleanliness of the bakery and factories. 

The pandemic led to a rise in demand for healthy and functional bakery items like multigrain, nuts and other healthy ingredients. Consumers are purchasing a variety of bakery products that are high on the health quotient, as it has been seen that people suffering from lifestyle diseases such as diabetes, high blood pressure and obesity are more prone to deadly infection. 

The baking industry has given an edge to the entrepreneurial skills of women in Kerala as well. Women are entering the Baking sector, and the number is seen rising from last year. At every level in the bakery industry, there are challenges and opportunities.

While the rise of local home bakers is encouraging, the organised bakeries are also incurring losses due to a lack of operational efficiency and skilled workers. Innovating new products is another big challenge for the industry because of increasing competition. With the arrival of multinational companies selling pizzas and burgers, consumers’ tastes are also changing.

The baking business can also face challenges if there are any changes in the government regulations, change in the demand-supply chain or increase in prices of any major ingredients like refined flour. It is of prime importance that one must have the training and skills to know how to bake and learn how to implement hygienic practices in their businesses to keep up with the customers’ needs.

Baking and Pastry Chefs with world-class training and skillsets are the need of the hour, especially when many hotels, airline kitchens, cafes, pastry shops and bakeries are opening up all over India. It is of prime importance that one must have the training and skills to know how to bake and learn how to implement hygienic practices in their businesses to keep up with the customers’ needs. 

It is also essential to understand finance and marketing in the baking business. Baked goods are perishable products; hence, it is vital to know how much to charge for each product to sell the entire product without incurring losses.
