렌틸콩 단백질 시장 예측( -2030년) : 제품별, 성질별, 유통 채널별, 용도별, 지역별 세계 분석

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Lentil Protein Market is accounted for $223.08 million in 2024 and is expected to reach $336.6 million by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 7.1% during the forecast period. Lentil protein is a plant-based protein derived from lentils, a type of legume known for its high nutritional value. It is extracted through processes like milling and protein isolation, resulting in a concentrated protein powder or ingredient used in food products. Rich in essential amino acids, fiber, and minerals, lentil protein is a sustainable and allergen-friendly alternative to animal proteins. It is commonly used in plant-based foods, protein supplements, and meat alternatives due to its high digestibility and functional properties. Lentil protein supports muscle growth, satiety, and overall health while being a key component in vegetarian and vegan diets.

According to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention, around 10% of the population of the United States, i.e., 32 million people in the country, suffer from some form of food allergy.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Rising Demand for Plant-Based Proteins

The rising demand for plant-based proteins is a key driver of the lentil protein market, fueled by growing consumer preference for sustainable, nutritious, and allergen-free protein sources. Increasing vegan and vegetarian diets, coupled with health-conscious choices, are boosting lentil protein adoption in food and beverage applications. Additionally, its high protein content, functional benefits, and clean-label appeal enhance demand. Expanding plant-based product innovation and supportive government policies further accelerate market growth, positioning lentil protein as a vital alternative to animal-based proteins.

Restraint:

High Processing Costs

High processing costs pose a significant hurdle to the market, restricting its growth potential. These high expenses are a result of the intricate and energy-intensive extraction procedures as well as the requirement for sophisticated machinery. As a result, lentil protein products become less competitive when compared to other plant-based proteins due to their increased overall cost. Demand and adoption are hampered as a result, particularly in sectors where prices are crucial.

Opportunity:

Health and Nutritional Benefits

The growing knowledge of health and nutritional benefits is a major driver of the lentil protein industry. Because it is high in fiber, iron, and vital amino acids, lentil protein is a popular option for consumers who are looking for plant-based protein substitutes and are health-conscious. Its advantages for heart health, weight control, and muscular growth increase demand, particularly among vegetarians and vegans. Furthermore, the use of lentil protein in functional foods and supplements is increasing due to the rising incidence of lactose intolerance and food allergies.

Threat:

Supply Chain and Raw Material Availability

Supply chain interruptions and raw material availability difficulties have a substantial impact on the lentil protein market. Production is hampered and expenses are raised by shortages of lentil supply brought on by erratic weather, difficult farming, and logistical delays. As a result, there is less lentil protein available, which makes it harder for producers to satisfy consumer demand. Product costs increase as a result, and the development of items made from lentils may stall, which would hinder market expansion as a whole.

Covid-19 Impact:

The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted the lentil protein market due to supply chain interruptions, labor shortages, and logistical constraints. However, increased consumer focus on health and immunity boosted demand for plant-based proteins. The rise in home cooking and growing preference for sustainable food sources further accelerated market growth. While initial disruptions affected production and distribution, post-pandemic recovery and heightened health awareness continue to drive demand for lentil protein globally.

The sports nutrition segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The sports nutrition segment is expected to account for the largest market share during the forecast period due to demand for plant-based protein alternatives. Athletes and fitness enthusiasts seek high-protein, allergen-free, and sustainable sources, boosting lentil protein's adoption in protein powders, bars, and supplements. Its rich amino acid profile, digestibility, and non-GMO status make it an attractive alternative to whey and soy proteins. Growing trends in vegan and plant-based diets further fuel this demand, positioning lentil protein as a key ingredient in sports nutrition products worldwide.

The organic segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

Over the forecast period, the organic segment is predicted to witness the highest growth rate owing to rising consumer preference for clean-label, non-GMO, and chemical-free ingredients. Increasing health awareness and demand for plant-based protein in functional foods, dietary supplements, and vegan products further boost adoption. Regulatory support and sustainability concerns also favor organic lentil protein, attracting health-conscious consumers. Premium pricing and expanding retail availability enhance market penetration, while food manufacturers innovate with organic formulations to meet evolving dietary trends.

Region with largest share:

During the forecast period, the North America region is expected to hold the largest market share due to increasing adoption in food & beverage, sports nutrition, and dietary supplements further accelerates growth. The market is strengthened by government support for diversity of proteins and sustainable agriculture. Demand is further increased by consumers' increasing preference for clean-label, non-GMO, and allergy-free protein sources. Key manufacturers' innovation in lentil-based products and growing retail distribution are further factors driving market growth.

Region with highest CAGR:

Over the forecast period, the Asia Pacific region is anticipated to exhibit the highest CAGR because expanding food and beverage applications, especially in dairy and meat alternatives, fuel market growth. Government initiatives promoting plant-based diets and sustainability further boost demand. Additionally, increasing disposable income and urbanization enhance market penetration. Technological advancements in extraction processes improve product quality and yield, making lentil protein a cost-effective and sustainable protein source in the region.
