Market Overview

The global protein alternatives market is projected to register a CAGR of 6.65% during the forecast period (2020 - 2025).

  • The market studied has witnessed a significant growth due to the increasing intolerance toward animal protein, thereby, leading to the shift in preference of the meat-consuming population toward meat substitutes made of vegan protein, hence, driving the market studied.
  • COVID-19 is providing an unexpected boost to the protein alternative industry, globally. Medical studies show that coronavirus disease has an overwhelming impact on people with underlying health conditions like diabetes, hypertension, and heart disease. An alternative protein-based diet can help reduce the effects of the virus on at-risk people as there is the presence of an abundance of macronutrients, micronutrients, and antioxidants. From a manufacturing and distributing point of view, this industry has faced unprecedented demand from manufacturers as well as consumers, particularly for some products, such as meat analog and plant-based milk.
  • Consumers in developing regions, like Asia-Pacific and Africa, have started to incorporate more protein in their daily diets. Many companies operating in the market place have started to initiate awareness programs and campaigns, which can be directed to make the consumers understand the benefits of alternative proteins and establish popularity among consumers.

Key Market Trends

Growing Demand for Vegan Dietary Habits Globally

The protein alternatives market is witnessing a shift in consumer demand from animal protein to plant protein. This inclination toward a plant-based diet is associated with different factors, such as sustainability issues, health awareness, ethical or religious views, and environmental and animal rights. Meat proteins provide the required amino acid content to the body but are associated with high cholesterol levels and other related issues, as a result of which, people are shifting to a vegan source of protein. Moreover, dairy proteins are also associated with the required amino acid content for the body, but according to the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), lactose intolerance (inability to digest lactose) affects 30-50 million Americans, and over 90% of the adults in east Asia.

North America Holds the Largest Market Share

The United States dominates the North American protein alternatives market by more than 60%. While there is still a strong dominance of animal protein among the US population, plant protein, such as soy, lentils, beans, among others, has been gaining high traction from the past few years. This is due to the high penetration of vegan protein-based products in the retail market and increased consumer awareness about the health benefits associated with it, along with weight management. With the existing business opportunities in the protein alternatives market, many companies are strategical, including business expansion plans, specifically in the plant protein category.
