GCC Feed Premix Market Analysis

The GCC Feeed Premix Market size is estimated at USD 3.90 billion in 2025, and is expected to reach USD 5.27 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 6.2% during the forecast period (2025-2030).

The increasing consumption of animal-based products, particularly poultry, dairy, and seafood, is driving the demand for high-quality feed, subsequently boosting the need for feed premixes in the region. Governments in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) are actively promoting local production of animal-based food products through supportive policies and subsidies. According to the USDA Poultry and Products Annual 2024 report, domestic poultry production in the United Arab Emirates accounts for 15% of chicken meat consumption, with the remaining 85% imported, primarily from Brazil. In response, the UAE's National Food Security Strategy 2051 aims to develop a comprehensive national system to enable sustainable local food production through modern technology, further stimulating feed premix demand in the region.

The growing aquaculture sector in the region is a significant driver of the feed premix market. The Ministry of Environment, Water, and Agriculture reports that fish production in saltwater and inland waters reached 140,000 metric tons in 2023, representing a 56.4% increase from 2021 production volumes. As part of Saudi Vision 2030, the ministry has implemented strategic plans aimed at increasing annual per capita fish consumption to 13 kilograms. This production increase, coupled with government support, is propelling the growth of the feed premix market in the region.

Saudi Arabia has the Largest Market in the Region

Meat consumption is high across all GCC countries, leading to a year-on-year increase in meat production to meet consumer demand. In 2021, Saudi Arabia recorded the highest total meat production in the region. According to the Food and Agriculture Organization, in 2022, Saudi Arabia slaughtered 195,498 cattle, followed by Oman with 122,712 cattle, and the United Arab Emirates with 78,406 cattle. These factors are driving market growth in Saudi Arabia and contributing to its regional dominance. Additionally, feed premix demand in Saudi Arabia surpasses that of other GCC countries, primarily due to its larger livestock population.

The Livestock Statistics Publication 2023 for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, published by The General Authority for Statistics (GASTAT), reports that the country has 29.4 million sheep, 22 million goats, and 2.2 million camels. In comparison, the UAE has 13.4 million goats, 12.4 million sheep, and 3.4 million camels, as reported by UAESTAT. To address the high demand for feed premixes, the government is implementing new projects and research technologies to meet customer requirements in Saudi Arabia and other GCC countries. These initiatives aim to support the growing livestock industry and maintain the region's position in meat production.
