The global market for the Textured Vegetable Protein is anticipated to develop at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.2% throughout the course of the forecast, to reach USD 2.59 billion by 2029.
Textured vegetable protein is a byproduct obtained from the processing of various vegetable ingredients that is used as a meat substitute due to its similar protein content to meats. It is a defatted version of vegetable proteins that are cooked in a very simple manner. These proteins are distinguished by their texturized structural integrity, which improves the chewiness and texture of the food products in which they are used.
Considering the growing health awareness among consumers, various food products such as meat patties and sausages are being replaced by plant-based/plant-infused meat products, which is expected to have a positive impact on the demand for plant based protein. According to The Food Science and Health Database Organization, in 2018, “22 million UK citizens now identify as being a ‘flexitarian,’ viewed not as a fad diet, but a permanent lifestyle choice, notably most popular among highly influential millennials.” Thus, the increasing vegan and flexitarian population is projected to drive the textured vegetable protein market during the forecast period. Increased soy and wheat crop cultivation in developing regions such as South America and the Asia Pacific has augmented the widespread cultivation of soybean and wheat grains across the globe, resulting in the availability of soy and wheat products such as textured vegetable proteins.
The global textured vegetables protein market size is predicted to reach over USD XX billion by 2028. This can be ascribed to the changes in the taste of consumer resulting in higher demands for healthier nutritional diet; this factor is anticipated to fuel the growth of the market.
However, allergies associated with vegetable sources including soy and wheat is restraining the market growth. Moreover, economical & environment-friendly alternative to animal-sourced food service products is likely to create opportunities for the textured vegetable protein market in the forthcoming years.
