Wheat Flour. Generally, the prospects of the flour milling industry are underpinned by the demand and consumption of flour from the manufacturing and food services sectors as well as households. Other factors that contribute to the prospects of the flour milling industry would include global wheat prices and government regulations. Wheat is the most commonly used grain in producing flour, and wheat flour forms the basic ingredient in the manufacturing of food products including, among others, breads, cakes, biscuits, pastry and flour based products, as well as noodles, soups and sauces. The flour milling industry in Malaysia has been relatively stable and experienced growth, albeit at a minimal CAGR of 2.2% from a sales value of RM1.9 billion in 2012 to RM2.1 billion in 2016.
