A major shift in the consumer behavior of the global market has led to an interest in alternative protein sources, such as plant-based, insect-based, and microbial-based proteins. Also, a growing number of people are turning to more environment-friendly products. The demand for alternative proteins is mainly fueled by the perception that these proteins are healthier and more environmentally friendly than animal-derived proteins.

In response to the growing demands from health-conscious consumers, the global trend in food industries is to translate nutritional information into consumer reality by developing food products using alternative protein ingredients that provide superior sensory appeal and nutritional and health benefits. As a result, there has been an increased global demand for alternative proteins. In addition, factors including the potential of insect, microbial, and plant proteins, the emerging economies such as South East Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East & Africa, and the increasing inclination towards vegan diet are expected to provide significant growth opportunities for protein ingredient manufacturers.

Increasing Sales Statistics of Plant-based Food to Drive Alternative Protein Market

COVID-19 provided a surge in sales of alternative protein-based products, which proved beneficial for all stakeholders in the alternative protein market space. Few to be listed are:

• In 2021, retail plant-based food sales in the U.S. surpassed $7 billion, an increase of 27% from 2019.
• As of March 2021, according to ProVeg International, the European vegan market grew by 49%, reaching €3.6 billion in sales.

The alternative protein market is segmented based on type, application, and geography. The study also evaluates industry competitors and analyses the market at the country level.

Based on type, the alternative protein market is segmented into plant protein, insect protein, and microbial protein. In 2022, the plant protein segment is estimated to account for the largest share of the overall alternative protein market. The large share of this segment is mainly attributed to the growing demand from food & beverage manufacturers, the increasing vegan population, the rising number of plant-based product launches, and the large presence of plant protein manufacturers. However, the insect protein segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period of 2022–2029.

The plant protein market is further segmented into soy protein, wheat protein, pea protein, canola protein, potato protein, rice protein, corn protein, and others. In 2022, the soy protein segment is estimated to account for the largest share of the plant proteins market. The large share of this segment is attributed to its easy availability, lower price of soy protein, increased demand for meat protein alternatives, a wide range of applications in various products, and multiple health benefits. However, the pea protein segment is expected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period.

Based on application, the alternative protein market is mainly segmented into plant protein-based applications, insect protein-based applications, and microbial protein-based applications. In 2022, the plant protein-based applications segment is estimated to account for the largest share of the alternative protein market. The large share of this segment is attributed to the growing vegetarian and vegan population, consumers’ rising demand for clean-label products, and the increasing investments and expansions by plant-based product manufacturers. However, the insect protein-based applications segment is expected to record a CAGR during the forecast period. The rapid growth of this segment is attributed to the high nutritional value of insects, the increasing demand for novel food products, and the increasing acceptance amongst consumers towards the consumption of insect protein.
