Impact of COVID-19 on the Protein Ingredients Market

The rapid spread of COVID-19 and the equally rapid government response to restrict the movement of the majority of the population in different countries have dramatically changed the consumption patterns, which has also impacted the food & agriculture industries.

The significant changes in consumer purchasing behavior are gradually transforming the food industry. Due to rising health concerns, consumers have started avoiding the consumption of meat and poultry. They are now more inclined toward protein substitute products to fill in the gap. The sales of immunity-related ingredients have spiked globally. These trends have fueled the demand for protein-based products as protein is one of the most important constituents that help in building immunity. However, the coronavirus has caused a severe disruption in the supply chain and has influenced the supply of ingredients and raw materials. Companies are constantly trying to handle the situation and be ready for any further disruption.

Drivers: Increasing demand for proteins as nutritional and functional ingredients

Protein ingredients sourced from animals and plants are well-known for their emulsification, gelation/viscosity, water-binding/hydration, foaming, aeration, and other functional properties. These functionalities, along with the nutritional aspects of proteins, are a major advantage to end-user industries, and are, thus, one of the major market drivers. In end-user industries such as cosmetic & personal care, protein ingredients are primarily used for their conditioning and moisturizing properties in the hair and skincare industries. In major applications such as food & beverages, the use of protein ingredients continues to grow with the increasing demand for improved functionalities. The ability of protein ingredient manufacturers to design and develop specific isolates, concentrates, and other forms of protein ingredients for various applications is likely to drive the growth of the protein ingredients market during the forecast period.

COVID-19 is expected to boost the demand for protein ingredients at a higher rate in the global market as people across the globe are more health-conscious and finding ways to strengthen their immunity.

By form, the dry segment is projected to grow at a higher rate in the protein ingredients market during the forecast period

The global market, by form, has been segmented into dry and liquid. The dry form is projected to grow at a higher CAGR during the forecast period. This form of protein ingredients is largely preferred by manufacturers of food & beverage, feed, and pharmaceutical products as they have better stability and ease of handling & storage compared to the liquid form. Furthermore, they have a longer shelf life compared to the liquid form.

The European market accounted for the largest share in the protein ingredients market. This dominance is attributed to the high consumption in this region. The consumption in Europe is more than twice the global average consumption. The high-protein trend in food & beverages and personal care & cosmetics is gaining a foothold in Germany, as protein claims on food and drink launches continue on their growth path. The increasing prevalence of health-related problems, along with high importance being laid on the quality, taste, and freshness of foods is modifying the demand for food, owing to which the market for protein ingredients is projected to witness growth.

Key Market Players:

Key players in this market include Cargill (US), ADM (US), DuPont (US), Kerry Group (Ireland), Omega Protein Corporation (US), FrieslandCampina (Netherlands), Fonterra Co-operative Group Limited (New Zealand), Arla Foods (Denmark), Roquette (France), Gelita AG (Germany), Kewpie Corporation (Japan), AGRANA (Austria), AMCO Proteins (US), Hilmar Ingredients (US), Axiom Foods (US), Burcon Nutrascience (Canada), Rousselot (Netherlands), Foodchem International Corporation (China), A&B Ingredients (US), and Reliance Private Label Supplements (US).

Growth Strategies Adopted by Major Players in the Protein Ingredients Market

 The global protein ingredients market size is estimated to be valued at USD 52.5 billion in 2020 and projected to reach USD 70.7 billion by 2025, at a CAGR of 6.1% during the forecast period. This is attributed to the increase in demand for protein functionalities, awareness about healthy diet & nutritional food, new technological development in the protein ingredients industry, growth in demand for superior personal care and healthcare products, and increase in consumption of animal by-products.


Market Dynamics:

DRIVER: Increasing demand for proteins as nutritional and functional ingredients

Protein ingredients sourced from both animals and plants are well-known for their emulsification, gelation/viscosity, water-binding/hydration, foaming, aeration properties; other attributes of protein ingredients include thickening ability, stabilizing ability, and solubility. These functionalities, along with nutritional aspects of proteins, are a major advantage to end-user industries, and are, thus, one of the major market drivers. Another advantage associated with protein sources used for specific functional properties is that they are often less price-sensitive than those that are used only for their nutritional properties. This often benefits the end-user industries with cost advantages. In the end-user industries such as cosmetic & personal care, protein ingredients are primarily used for their conditioning and moisturizing properties in the hair and skin care industries. In major applications such as food & beverages, the use of protein ingredients continues to grow with the increasing demand for improved functionalities. The ability of protein ingredient manufacturers to design and develop specific isolates, concentrates, and other forms of protein ingredients for dairy products, beverages, dietary supplements, infant formula, bakery products, confectionery, and other food products is likely to drive the growth of the protein ingredients market during the forecast period.

CHALLENGE: Demand-based price fluctuations in cropping pattern

Even though the prices of soy proteins are comparatively lower than most of the proteins, the supply can prove to be a significant factor in price escalation. The raw material for soy protein ingredients is soy meal, which is also highly demanded by the feed industry. Unless there is no drop in the cultivation area under soybeans, the supply is expected to remain unfazed for both feed and protein manufacturers.

Sometimes, crop growers, to avail better crop value, change their crop patterns, which can marginalize the flow of supply, and thereby, lead to an increased demand for protein manufacturing and price escalation. In 2013, increased diversion to biofuel and vegetable oil consumption led to more corn and canola production than soybean in North America. However, soybean cultivation has been maintaining better positive year-by-year growth in this region. So, the crops cultivated by growers are subject to change, based on the crop demand and price value. A wide-scale change in cropping patterns can be expected with the decline in price levels for a crop after a certain point of price saturation. Around 2020, this can play an important role in seeking a cost-effective supply channel to maintain operational efficiency, as Latin America is expected to near its optimum land resource utilization for soybean by that time.

The pharmaceutical segment is projected to be the fastest-growing segment during the forecast period

The pharmaceutical segment is projected to be the fastest-growing, by application, during the forecast period. This is attributed to the increase in the aging population and their need for improved metabolism and health products as proteins are essential amino acids that help the human body boost its immunity and help build and repair tissues. They are the building blocks for bones, muscles, cartilage, skin, and blood. Thus, protein form an important component in the pharmaceutical and healthcare industries.

Europe is projected to be the largest and fastest-growing market during the forecast period

The European market accounted for the largest share in the market. This dominance is attributed to high consumption in this region. The consumption in Europe is more than twice the global average consumption. The high-protein trend in food & beverages and personal care & cosmetics is gaining a foothold in Germany, as protein claims on food and drink launches continue their growth path. The increasing prevalence of health-related problems along with high importance being laid on the quality, taste, and freshness of foods is modifying food demand, owing to which, the market for protein ingredients is projected to witness growth.
