Spaghetti, macaroni, fettuccine and linguine and you get it.
Pasta is a favourite when it comes to dinner choices but did you know that the global pasta market is actually worth some US$45 billion in 2022?
In fact, Fortune Business Insights projects the figure to reach US$68.97 billion by 2030, representing a compound annual growth rate of 5.26% during the forecast period of 2023 to 2030.
