Electric Chapati Maker Market: Overview

An electric chapati maker is a modern-day kitchen appliance that aims to simplify the process of chapati making, which is traditionally a labor-intensive task. Chapatis are crucial food items across several diet cultures. They are thin, unleavened flatbreads and are common items in majority of the Indian households. It is also referred to as an electric roti maker or roti press. Conventionally, the process of chapati making includes kneading dough which is later separated into smaller sizes, rolled in the form of thin discs, and cooked on a hot griddle.

However, electric chapati makers can efficiently automate the entire process, making it quicker and reducing stress on humans. The product consists of non-stick, flat surfaces that are heated using electric energy. Once the dough is kneaded, it is rolled in a ball form of smaller sizes. This segment of dough is then placed on the heated surface and pressed down, which performs the dual role of shaping the dough in a circular form while also cooking it. It comes along with a handle that is used to press down the dough.

Electric Chapati Maker Market: Growth Drivers

Rising cooking gas prices to drive market growth

The global electric chapati maker market is projected to grow owing to the rising prices of cooking gas which consists of either liquified petroleum gas (LPG) or natural gas. India, which is one of the largest consumers of traditionally made chapatis, is witnessing a surge in the prices of LPG cylinders which are used in the majority of the Indian household. The prices are directly linked to the high import of LPG in the country since it currently lacks independence in terms of natural gas or petroleum supply and has to depend on its trading partners.

However, with the recent war between Russia and Ukraine, the global economy has witnessed an increase in petroleum prices and the impact can also be seen in the Indian subcontinent. This could lead to more people adopting electric chapati makers since it can greatly limit dependency on natural gas or LPG for cooking purposes.

Additionally, the growing popularity of Indian cuisine globally could also propel the demand for electric roti makers since it may be difficult for people from other parts of the world to cook roti using conventional methods.

Electric Chapati Maker Market: Restraints

Resistance to change may restrict market expansion

The electric chapati maker industry could face several growth restrictions owing to the high resistance to change, especially among people who have gained familiarity with traditional methods of roti-making. There is a common perception that food cooked using electric machines lacks the desired authenticity of the food product, which in turn makes more people hesitant toward adopting new technologies in the kitchen. It may take many years for the industry players to create a friendly viewpoint amongst their target consumers before the market reaches its true potential.

Electric Chapati Maker Market: Opportunities

Product diversification to provide growth opportunities

Currently, the product is highly limited in terms of application as it can only be used to make rotis. Hence, it does target a large consumer base. However, product diversification can create better growth opportunities.

They can invest in developing products that are more versatile and can be used for preparing other types of flatbreads by making certain adjustments to the structure of the electric device. It is essential that kitchen appliance makers target a broader group of culinary needs for survival.

Electric Chapati Maker Market: Challenges

Lack of infrastructure to challenge the market expansion

However, there is a visible lack of infrastructure that can facilitate the longer use of electric chapati makers especially in remote areas that are plagued with limited access to electricity.

The device may not be suitable for rural popularity and currently seems to target only urban or suburban areas. Moreover, people may fail to derive the cost-effectiveness of electric chapati makers and may deem it as an unnecessary cost.

In such units, the quantity of chapatis consumed is, in most cases, lower than 100. Higher capacity chapati makers are more popular in commercial units since they have greater demand for quick and consistent quality rotis. However, segmental growth is largely dependent on regional preferences, cultural practices, and the specific needs of consumers in different markets. A Prestige roti maker can run on a power of 900 watts.
