Meticulous Research®—a leading global market research company, published a research report titled, Alternative Protein Market by Type (Plant protein [Soy, Wheat, Pea, Canola, Rice, Potato], Insect protein [Crickets, BSF], Microbial protein [Algae, Fungal]), Application (Food & Beverage, Animal Feed, Nutraceuticals), and Geography - Global Forecast to 2030’

According to this latest publication from Meticulous Research®, the alternative protein market is projected to reach $40.7 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 13% from 2023–2030. The growth of the alternative protein market is mainly driven by rapid urbanization and growing consumer aspirations, increasing venture investments in the alternative protein industry, innovations in food technologies, the high nutritional value of edible insects, and the environmental sustainability of alternative protein production and consumption. However, the higher costs of alternative protein compared to conventional protein and consumers’ high preference for animal-based products restrain the growth of this market. Furthermore, consumers’ increasing inclination toward plant-based foods is expected to generate growth opportunities for the players operating in the alternative protein market.
