market share, Archer Daniels Midland Company, 2021
Archer Daniels Midland Company holds the largest share of the market. The company focuses on expanding its consumer base and has collaborated with regional clients.
- In 2022, the food and beverage segment witnessed the highest demand, followed by animal feed. The F&B segment recorded a CAGR of 4.63% during the study period. The rising utilization of plant proteins in animal feed and cosmetics has driven growth in recent years. The increase in demand for plant proteins in dairy and meat alternatives is expected to drive the segment during the forecast period.
- The increasing demand for protein functionalities, awareness about protein-rich diets, and new technological developments primarily drive the demand for plant proteins in the market. Among all food and beverage segments, meat alternatives lead the demand in the protein market, owing to the proteins' ability to mimic muscle meat texture. They can also be used for protein fortification in meat-alternative products. In 2022, meat alternatives claimed a 41% share of the overall plant proteins consumed in the food and beverage segment. However, the supplement segment is expected to register the highest demand for plant proteins, with a volume CAGR of 6.12% during the forecast period. The demand is high due to increased daily nutritional requirements as a result of changing lifestyles, especially in the sport/performance nutrition category.
- The meat/poultry/fish and meat alternatives segment represented 19.62% of the total protein consumed in the region in 2022. Textured vegetable protein, made from wheat protein or soy protein, has emerged as a major ingredient for plant-based meat manufacturers since it can closely resemble the sensory properties of meat products. As awareness regarding the adverse effects of consuming meat products increases in the country, manufacturers are looking for new ways to replace meat in their products, and TVP is one of the prime choices.
- The United States remained the largest plant protein-consuming country in the region during the study period. Its share was majorly influenced by the growing demand for plant-based food products amid rising veganism, environmental concerns, and the demand for sustainable protein sources. In 2022, the retail sales of plant-based food products in the United States increased by 27% compared to the previous year. Thus, the surging demand at the retail end is further expected to boost volume sales of plant proteins. Around 61% of consumers in the United States consider plants to be a preferred protein source over animal-based proteins, which is expected to boost market growth.
- On the other hand, Canada and Mexico held a minor volume share in 2022, majorly driven by the F&B and animal feed sectors. The Canadian market is growing in line with the increasing research studies conducted in the segment, boosting consumer interest. In line with the growing market demand, investments are also increasing. In 2021, Protein Industries Canada invested USD 9.7 million in plant protein projects for brands like Daiya and Merit Functional Foods.
- In terms of growth, Mexico is expected to be the fastest-growing country in the regional market, with a projected CAGR of 6.67%, by value, during the forecast period, owing to the growing acceptance of plant proteins among Mexicans, particularly as meat alternatives. The demand from the growing vegan population in the country mainly drives the Mexican plant proteins market. As of 2021, 20% of Mexicans identified themselves as vegetarians or vegans. Mexican food has been traditionally plant-based, and this return to plant-based food has given chefs and restaurants an opportunity to showcase their heritage creatively.
North America Plant Protein Ingredients Market Trends
Plant protein consumption growth fuels opportunities for key players in the ingredients sector
- The per capita consumption of plant protein in the region registered an increase of 2.42% from 2017 to 2022, supported by both investment and innovation. This increase was mainly due to the rise in the rate of consumers turning vegan or vegetarian in a bid to ensure animal welfare. For instance, the number of Americans following plant-based diets has increased by roughly 9.6 million people, accounting for nearly 3% of the population in the United States in 2020. After the COVID-19 pandemic, plant protein consumption skyrocketed for various reasons, including the fear of processing contamination by the virus in animal-sourced proteins and the hike in consumption of protein combinations, including animal and plant proteins or a combination of distinct plant proteins.
- Most Americans eat less meat, but they do not eliminate their consumption entirely. They also tend to be more flexitarian than vegan or vegetarian. The usage of plant protein is mainly observed in sports nutrition and meat alternatives. Soy and whey proteins are used primarily in the food and beverage, supplement, and sports nutrition industries. In 2021, around 36% of consumers were familiar with soy protein and had consumed the same, whereas 31% of individuals consumed whey protein in the U.S.
- Flexitarian is the second-largest dietary group in Canada. The percentage of consumers becoming flexitarian or vegan offers manufacturers enough opportunities to introduce and innovate more in the plant protein segment. In 2021, the Canadian government announced an investment of more than USD 4.3 million to support Canada’s pulse and special crop farmers to meet the growing consumer demand for sustainable, high-quality plant-based protein.
Soy, wheat, and rice production contributes majorly as raw material for plant protein ingredients manufacturers
- The graph given depicts the total production of raw materials such as dry peas, rice, wheat, and soya beans. In North America, the U.S. is the key producer of some plant protein raw materials. The U.S. produces about one-third of the total soybean in the world, followed closely by Brazil and Argentina. In 2021, the country produced 119.88 million MT of soybean accounting 31% shares of the global soybean production. Soybeans are the third-largest field crop in Canada. Predominantly, soybean has become an important cash crop in cities like Quebec and Manitoba, Maritimes, southeast Saskatchewan, and southern Alberta. Presently, Canada is the producer of 200 registered soybean varieties. Among those registered varieties, 80% of soybeans are herbicide-tolerant.
- The U.S. is also the wheat-producing leader in the region, followed by Canada, with both countries accounting for almost 100% of the regional wheat production. Wheat ranks third among U.S. field crops in planted acreage, production, and gross farm receipts—behind corn and soybeans. In marketing year 2023/24, U.S. farmers produced a total of 1.8 billion bushels of winter, durum, and other spring wheat from a harvested area of 37.3 million acres. Winter wheat production represents nearly 70 percent of total U.S. production. Similarly, in 2023, Canadian farmers grew almost 32 million tonnes of wheat
- Arkansas Grand Prairie, Mississippi Delta, Gulf Coast, Sacramento Valley of California are four regions producing almost the entire U.S. rice crop. Each of these regions normally specializes in a specific type of rice, referred to in the United States by length of grain, i.e., long, medium, and short. In general, long-grain production accounts for approximately 75 percent of U.S. rice production.

Hemp Protein, Pea Protein, Potato Protein, Rice Protein, Soy Protein, Wheat Protein are covered as segments by Protein Type. Animal Feed, Food and Beverages, Personal Care and Cosmetics, Supplements are covered as segments by End User. Canada, Mexico, United States are covered as segments by Country.
- In 2022, the food and beverage segment witnessed the highest demand, followed by animal feed. The F&B segment recorded a CAGR of 4.63% during the study period. The rising utilization of plant proteins in animal feed and cosmetics has driven growth in recent years. The increase in demand for plant proteins in dairy and meat alternatives is expected to drive the segment during the forecast period.
- The increasing demand for protein functionalities, awareness about protein-rich diets, and new technological developments primarily drive the demand for plant proteins in the market. Among all food and beverage segments, meat alternatives lead the demand in the protein market, owing to the proteins' ability to mimic muscle meat texture. They can also be used for protein fortification in meat-alternative products. In 2022, meat alternatives claimed a 41% share of the overall plant proteins consumed in the food and beverage segment. However, the supplement segment is expected to register the highest demand for plant proteins, with a volume CAGR of 6.12% during the forecast period. The demand is high due to increased daily nutritional requirements as a result of changing lifestyles, especially in the sport/performance nutrition category.
- The meat/poultry/fish and meat alternatives segment represented 19.62% of the total protein consumed in the region in 2022. Textured vegetable protein, made from wheat protein or soy protein, has emerged as a major ingredient for plant-based meat manufacturers since it can closely resemble the sensory properties of meat products. As awareness regarding the adverse effects of consuming meat products increases in the country, manufacturers are looking for new ways to replace meat in their products, and TVP is one of the prime choices.
