Market Overview

The global lecithin market is growing with a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period (2020-2025).

  • The rising incidences of lifestyle-based health issues, such as cardiovascular diseases, obesity, osteoporosis, and diabetes, have fuelled consumers’ need for food ingredients like lecithin.
  • Owing to its various medical benefits, lecithin can be consumed as a medicine, and can also be used in medicine manufacturing. Lecithin improves liver and cell functioning, fat transport and metabolism, healthy reproduction and child development, and offers better treatment for gallstone.
  • In the developed markets, such as the United States and Europe, consumers are actively focusing on the consumption of food products made from organic ingredients, which are obtained from non-GMO (Genetically-modified Organism) extracts.

Impact of COVID-19 on the Market:

  • The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted into a devastating impact on the lecithin market in two main ways: by directly affecting production and demand, and by creating supply chain and market disruption.
  • However, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has relaxed labeling requirements under COVID-19 on few ingredients including soy lecithin. The FDA exempted soy lecithin from allergen list, stating that the product never required to be labeled as allergens. Such initiatives by the regulatory bodies have created ample room to rebalance the lecithin industry even in the face of persistent COVID-19 restrictions.

China to Dominate as Lecithin Market in Asia-Pacific

The rising demand for natural ingredients is witnessing a rise in the usage of lecithin in bakery and confectionery, dairy, and meat products. The increasing number of food outlets and foodservice joints seem to be driving the demand for lecithin as a food additive in the Chinese food and beverage industry. China is also a fast-growing market, due to rising cases of obesity and more attention being paid to the nutrition in food products, which drives the market studied.

On the other hand, increased demand for personal care products and cosmetics uses in the countries are expected to boost the demand for de-oiled lecithin. Additionally, the booming aquaculture industry in China is expected to boost the demand for lecithin in the animal feed segment.
