The Size of Global Soy Protein Ingredients Market is anticipated to grow from USD 8.19 billion in 2024 to USD 11.64 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 7.3% from 2024 to 2029.
Soy protein is obtained from soybeans after extraction of oil. Soy Protein is used for the fortification of many food products and as an alternative to dairy protein. It is extensively used as a meat extender and as a quality substitute for meat. This legume is one of the few plant proteins that contains all eight essential amino acids. High functional properties of the soy protein ingredient and eco-friendly and natural health benefits drive the demand for soy protein during the forecast period.
Moreover, it is more cost-effective than animal protein and reflects the same protein content. This is expected to enhance the adoption of soy protein across various end-use industries resulting in increasing the shelf life of processed food, so it is also considered as the most sustainable protein ingredient. This in turn boosts the market. However, the allergic nature of soy protein ingredients is restraining its growth during the forecast period. Moreover, the negative impact of genetically modified (GM) soy coupled with the availability of various alternatives such as milk proteins, pea proteins, and other animal proteins is also affecting the growth of soy protein ingredients in the forecast period.
