Argentina Snacks Market 2025

The Argentina snacks market is expected to experience robust growth, with a projected increase of USD 15.9 billion and a CAGR of approximately 8.1% throughout the forecast period. Argentina’s snack market is being reshaped by economic volatility and evolving consumer resilience. Currency depreciation and inflationary pressure have intensified demand for domestically produced, cost-accessible snack options. Local brands are reformulating traditional Argentine favorites – such as alfajores, empanada-inspired crisps, and dulce de leche wafers – into wallet-friendly formats without compromising on familiar taste profiles. This pragmatic approach is resonating across income levels, driving volumes in both kiosk and supermarket channels.

Simultaneously, a growing wellness segment is driving uptake of alternative snacks based on yerba mate, chia, and carob, native to South America’s agrobiodiversity. Argentine startups are experimenting with functional bars and gluten-free bites that incorporate these ingredients to tap into global trends while maintaining national authenticity. These products are being marketed not only to domestic health-conscious consumers but also for export to neighboring countries with similar dietary preferences.
