According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Plant Based Protein Supplements Market is accounted for $13.3 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach $25.2 billion by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 9.5% during the forecast period. Plant-based protein supplements are dietary supplements derived from plant sources, such as peas, soy, or hemp, offering a vegan or vegetarian alternative to animal-based proteins. They are used to supplement protein intake, aid muscle recovery, and support overall health.
According to a Plant-Based Foods Association survey, the U.S. retail plant-based foods sale was 35% higher than total retail food amid the panic buying period around March & April 2020.
Market Dynamics:
Driver:
Rising demand for vegan and vegetarian products
Consumers increasingly embrace plant-centric diets for ethical, environmental, and health reasons, the market witnesses a surge in demand for protein supplements derived from plants like peas, soy, and hemp. This trend reflects a broader shift toward sustainable and cruelty-free lifestyles. Plant-based protein supplements cater to individuals seeking alternative protein sources without animal products, aligning with the growing popularity of vegan and vegetarian lifestyles. The market's response to this demand involves continuous innovation in product formulations, expanding the variety and accessibility of plant-based protein supplements to meet diverse consumer preferences.
Restraint:
Limited amino acid profiles
While plant sources offer various health benefits, certain plant proteins may lack specific essential amino acids, particularly complete proteins like those found in animal sources. This limitation poses challenges in meeting the comprehensive nutritional needs of consumers, especially individuals with specific dietary requirements, such as athletes or those engaging in intensive physical activities. The absence of complete amino acid profiles may impact the effectiveness of plant-based supplements in supporting muscle growth, repair, and overall protein synthesis.
Opportunity:
Fitness and sports nutrition
More athletes and fitness enthusiasts recognize the benefits of plant-based diets for performance, muscle recovery, there is a growing demand for plant-based protein supplements. These supplements offer an effective and sustainable alternative to traditional animal-based protein sources, aligning with the nutritional needs of those engaged in rigorous physical activities. Manufacturers catering to this opportunity can capitalize on the trend by developing innovative plant-based formulations tailored for the fitness community, emphasizing factors such as improved digestibility, amino acid profiles, and enhanced nutritional benefits for optimal athletic performance.
Threat:
Supply chain disruptions
The reliance on specific crops, such as soy, pea, or hemp, for plant-based protein production makes the supply chain vulnerable to various factors. Weather conditions, agricultural challenges, and geopolitical issues can disrupt the cultivation and harvesting of these crops, leading to fluctuations in supply and potential price volatility. Additionally, global events, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, underscore the susceptibility of supply chains to unforeseen disruptions. These challenges can affect production timelines, product availability, and overall market stability.
Covid-19 Impact:
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a mixed impact on the market. While consumer interest in health and wellness has increased, supply chain disruptions and economic uncertainties have posed challenges. Some consumers turned to plant-based alternatives for immune system support, contributing to market growth. However, the economic downturn affected purchasing power, influencing buying decisions. The market's resilience lies in adapting to evolving consumer needs, emphasizing product affordability, and leveraging e-commerce channels to maintain accessibility.
The protein powder is expected to be the largest during the forecast period
The protein powder segment is expected to have a lucrative growth. Typically derived from sources like pea, hemp, soy, or brown rice, plant-based protein powders cater to various dietary preferences, including vegan and vegetarian lifestyles. Widely used in fitness and sports nutrition, these powders support muscle recovery and overall health. The market's appeal lies in the diversity of flavors, formulations, and applications, making plant-based protein powders a popular choice for individuals seeking nutritional supplements aligned with their ethical, health, and fitness goals.
The supermarkets/hypermarkets segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period
The supermarkets/hypermarkets segment is anticipated to witness the fastest CAGR growth during the forecast period. These retail outlets provide a convenient shopping experience, allowing consumers to explore a broad range of plant-based protein supplements in one location. The visibility within these stores enhances product exposure and encourages consumer experimentation. Additionally, supermarkets and hypermarkets often incorporate health and wellness sections, promoting plant-based supplements as part of a holistic lifestyle. This widespread availability, coupled with the convenience of one-stop shopping, contributes significantly to the increasing adoption of plant-based protein supplements by a diverse consumer base.
Region with largest share:

The region witnesses a growing preference for plant-based diets, bolstered by an increasing number of individuals adopting vegan and vegetarian lifestyles.
