Alternative Protein Market Overview:

The Alternative Protein Market is estimated to surpass $6.969 Billion by 2030 growing at an estimated CAGR of more than 12.0% % during the forecast period 2023 to 2030. The growing market for alternative protein sources, such as plant-based proteins, cultured meat, and insect protein. This is due to changing consumer behavior and concerns about health, the environment, and animal welfare. Many food industry players are attempting to capture this market opportunity by rolling out new technologies and ingredients. However, pea protein and cultured meat show the most promise for market growth over the coming years, and plants are expected to be the largest source of alternative protein.
 
Despite this, animal protein will likely maintain a significant market share due to the projected growth of meat consumption in major developed markets such as China. It is suggested that CPG companies and food manufacturers invest in the capabilities required to develop and manufacture the most promising alternative-protein products to win market share in this fast-growing segment over the long term.
