Animal Protein Ingredients Market Size:
The animal protein ingredients market will grow at a CAGR of 4.29% to be valued at US$45.09 billion in 2030 from US$36.541 billion in 2025.
Animal protein ingredients refer to those types of ingredients that are derived from animal sources. The market is projected to witness healthy growth owing to the growing consumption of protein products in both developed and developing economies of the globe due to growing awareness among the millennials about a healthy and nutritious diet. Since protein is considered one of the most essential parts of the diet as it helps to build, repair, and maintain the body’s structures. A human body possesses proteins throughout the body in muscles and organs to the bones, skin, and hair, however, the incapability of the body to store proteins unlike other macronutrients is a key factor for protein intake through the diet. Higher nutrition content in animal-based products is one of the major factors that has led to high demand for animal protein ingredients, thus playing a major role in amplifying the market growth during the forecast period. Additionally, the wide applications of these products in the animal feed industry are anticipated to propel the business growth opportunities for the market players over the course of the next five years. Furthermore, increased consumption of dietary supplements due to health benefits associated with it particularly among the millennials and athletes to enhance their muscle building and performance is also supplementing the demand during the given time frame. The growing participation by food companies in the R&D investments for the launch of new and enhanced foods with high protein content coupled with the launch of the new and enhanced products by protein manufacturers further provides an impetus for market growth in the near future.
However, the increasing concerns regarding the killing of animals in many countries coupled with the growing consumption of plant-based protein products owing to shifting consumer preferences towards veganism are anticipated to be one of the prominent factors that may hamper the market growth in the long run. Also, diseases associated with animals such as bird flu and swine flu in many parts of the world have further led to an inclination of consumers toward plant-based protein products. Thus, the issues regarding the safety of animal protein ingredients may inhibit the growth to some extent over the coming years.
Animal Protein Ingredients Market Growth Drivers:
- Growing vegan population
One of the major factors which are projected to hamper the market growth includes the growth in the vegan population in many parts of the world and particularly in the developed economies of the globe. The growing focus of the government on the promotion of vegan food is further restricting the consumption of animal-based products. Also, the growing vegan population is further leading to increased consumption of plant-based protein products, which is projected to have a negative impact on the market in the long run. Similarly, the governments of many countries are aiming to reduce the killing of animals and thereby further reduce the consumption of meat-based proteins as well as products. For instance, a point of agreement was approved by the Congress of Mexico City that is mainly aimed to encourage public organizations such as governments to stay more inclined towards the consumption of plant-based meals and proteins in their kitchens to mitigate the risk of various numbers of CVDs associated with high meat consumption. Also, the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) has been constantly working to promote a plant-based diet via both online and offline channels and social media campaigns. In July 2018, the ‘Eat Right India' campaign was initiated by the authority of which 'Eat Healthy' and Eat Safe' are the two broad pillars to engage excite, and enable citizens to improve their health and well-being.

Moreover, the growing consumption of convenience food particularly in the developing economies owing to the changing hectic lifestyles of the people in countries such as India, China, and others. On the other hand, the animal feed application segment will propel at a notable CAGR due to the rise in population, there has been continuous pressure on the livestock and farm sector to meet the aspiring demands of a growing population, globally. Thus, the increasing animal population is also driving the overall market growth.
Animal Protein Ingredients Market Geographical Outlook:
- APAC will hold a prominent share
Geographically, the Asia Pacific region will hold a significant share in the market which may be attributed to the high demand for these ingredients for a number of applications. Moreover, high animal feed demand in the region will also supplement the market growth in the region during the forecast period. For instance, China is one of the biggest food and beverages and animal feed consumers in the world. The substantial change in the consumption pattern within the country has led to increasing demand for animal protein. According to the International Institute of Applied System Analytics’ CHINAGRO Model II, by 2030, China will require the production of 200 million more pigs, 3 billion poultry, and several billion fish to meet the increasing demand. Such a rise in animal husbandry within the country is estimated to shoot the demand for animal protein ingredients in the near future. Thus, positively impacting the market growth during the given time frame.
