[192 Pages Report] The Alternative Protein Market size was estimated at USD 6.07 billion in 2023 and expected to reach USD 6.53 billion in 2024, at a CAGR 7.92% to reach USD 10.36 billion by 2030.

Alternative protein sources come from plant-based sources such as soy, pea, and hemp, as well as cell-based or lab-grown meat and other products. Alternative protein products have been developed to duplicate traditional animal-based products’ texture, taste, and nutritional profile. Changing consumer attitudes and preferences toward meat-free diets create demand for alternative proteins. The high cost of developing alternative proteins and the effective use of animal-derived products hinder the growth of this market. Growing investments in developing alternative proteins are anticipated to create market growth opportunities.

Regional Insights

Rising awareness of traditional animal agriculture and the need for more sustainable food production practices are factors driving global demand for alternative proteins. The presence of native players and technological advances, including plant-based protein alternatives and cell-culture technology, which have enabled the development of new and innovative products, is expected to benefit the market growth in the Americas. A rapid shift in consumer preferences toward healthier, more nutritious, cost- and convenient food options is driving the market’s growth in APAC and Europe.
