Advancement in market

The newest Centre for Sustainable Protein from Bezos Earth Fund has hybrid meats, biomass fermentation, and innovative microalgae. As stated by Green Queen in June, this site—the third of its kind—was always supposed to be in Asia. The National University of Singapore (NUS) research hub was officially opened by the fund. It comes after sister centres were established in May at North Carolina State University and June at Imperial College London. The Singapore Centre for Sustainable Protein, like the other two hubs, was established with a $30 million investment as part of a $100 million pledge for alternative proteins. The supplementary award will be funded with the remaining $10 million.

Market Dynamics

Driver: Increasing Demand for Vegan Food.

The rising interest in vegan diets drives the need for alternative proteins, which are rich in protein and minerals and can help prevent various health issues, such as cardiovascular diseases. Vegan foods, including meat substitutes, are also associated with heart health and weight management, further boosting market demand.

Restraints: Processing Complexities.

Manufacturing alternative proteins involves complex processes, including texturization through extrusion. Factors such as shape, bulk density, and surface quality affect the final product's quality. The intricate interplay of shear force, temperature, and pressure during extrusion complicates the production process and may hinder market growth.

Opportunities: Extraction from New Sources.

Traditionally, alternative proteins are derived from soy, wheat, and peas. However, there is growing interest in extracting proteins from novel sources, such as edible insects. Insects offer unique nutritional benefits and are increasingly consumed worldwide for their health, economic, and environmental advantages. This exploration of new sources presents significant growth opportunities for the market.

Challenges: Allergies Associated with Proteins.

Allergies to certain alternative proteins, such as those from plants or insects, pose a challenge. Not all individuals can tolerate these proteins, which can impact market acceptance and growth. Addressing these allergy concerns is crucial for the market's expansion.
