[195 Pages Report] The Plant Based Protein Market size was estimated at USD 14.55 billion in 2023 and expected to reach USD 15.67 billion in 2024, at a CAGR 7.87% to reach USD 24.73 billion by 2030.

Plant-based protein refers to a category of proteins derived from various plant sources, such as legumes, grains, nuts, seeds, and algae. The rising awareness of health benefits associated with plant-based diets due to their high nutritional content and prevalence of lactose intolerance among individuals worldwide also contributes to a higher demand for alternative protein sources. However, the higher cost of production compared to conventional sources such as dairy and meat may hinder the adoption of plant-based protein. Nevertheless, developing innovative processing techniques to improve the functional properties of plant proteins, such as solubility, emulsifying, and foaming capacity, can further enhance the overall value proposition for these products, creating potential opportunities for the market growth.
