Textured Soy Protein Market Growth & Trends

The global textured soy protein market size is expected to reach USD 2.2 billion by 2030, expanding at a CAGR of 13.2%, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The growth is primarily driven by the increasing demand for plant-based protein alternatives, particularly in the food and beverage industry. As more consumers adopt vegetarian or vegan diets or reduce their meat consumption for health or environmental reasons, there is a growing need for high-quality, affordable, and versatile sources of protein.

Textured soy protein, also known as textured vegetable protein, provides a viable solution to this demand, as it is derived from soybeans and offers a meat-like texture and flavor when rehydrated. Additionally, the rising awareness about the health benefits of soy protein, such as its ability to lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart disease, has further boosted the market growth.

Food and beverage manufacturers are incorporating textured soy protein into a wide range of products, including meat substitutes, snacks, bakery, and confectionery products, to cater to the changing dietary preferences of consumers. Furthermore, the increasing popularity of soy-based products in emerging economies, such as China and India, due to their cost-effectiveness and nutritional value, is also driving the global market for textured soy protein.

Moreover, the increasing investment by manufacturers in R&D activities to develop innovative products and formulations using textured soy protein is driving the market’s growth. For instance, manufacturers are developing new varieties of textured soy protein with improved texture, flavor, and nutritional value to meet the changing demands of consumers. The rising demand for organic and non-GMO soy-based products is also driving the growth, as consumers are willing to pay a premium for products that are free from harmful chemicals and genetically modified organisms.

In November 2022, IFF introduced Supro Tex, an ingredient made from soy-based plant protein that can replicate the texture of meat. With a protein content of 80%, it is suitable for creating plant-based alternatives for beef, chicken, pork, and lamb dishes. The launch of Supro Tex is a key aspect of IFF’s Re-Imagine Protein initiative, which aims to drive growth in the plant-based industry.
