The size of the global yeast ingredients market is expected to be worth USD 2.24 million in 2024 and grow at a CAGR of 8.20% from 2024 to 2029 to achieve USD 3.32 million by 2029. The benefits of using in other sectors have greatly increased the demand for yeast ingredients.
Yeast is the common name for yeast strains that are commonly used in baking bread and bakery products, and it acts as a salting agent that increases sustenance by converting the fermentable sugar present in the dough into carbon dioxide and ethanol. Increased consumption of fast, processed foods, especially baked goods, is expected to spur growth in the yeast ingredient market. Yeast is a living single-celled organism. It is found abundantly in the soil, plant surfaces, and in proteins such as flower honey and fruit. Yeast converts food to alcohol and carbon dioxide through a process called fermentation. This is critically important not only when the yeast makes wine and beer, but also in the cooking process. The yeast commonly used to bake bread and bakery products is called baker's yeast. Flour is the most widely used flour when baked with yeast. The increase in consumption of processed and fast foods, especially bakery products, is expected to stimulate market growth in the future.
As a salty flavor, the importance of these ingredients has increased and has been applied on a large scale to fermentation processing, making the market accessible in recent years. Furthermore, increased consumption of processed foods and fast foods, especially bakery items, is expected to spur market growth. In terms of raw materials, the industrial value chain consists of distribution channels, raw material suppliers, manufacturers and applications. Yeast ingredients used in a variety of fields, including various industries, such as food and feed. For pet food applications, yeast ingredients are used to enhance odors, flavors, and salty flavors in place to enhance the taste.

The growing demand for yeast ingredients in the food and beverage industry, and increased personal awareness of the health benefits and nutritional value of yeast in food, are key factors driving the growth of the global market for ingredients in yeast. In addition, the increased use of yeast ingredients in nutritional supplements, pharmaceuticals, and increased consumer interest in organic foods made from natural food additives are other factors presumed to accelerate the growth of the global yeast ingredient market during the prognosis period.
Also, intense competition among market participants is another factor that is expected to hamper the growth of the worldwide yeast ingredient market during the forecast period. Furthermore, one of the main factors limiting the world market is the lack of essential raw materials, which are in demand in various sectors due to restrictions on trade in molasses in European countries. Another reason for this shortage is that biofuel prices are high, posing a significant threat to biofuel competition.
