Growth Drivers

The rising trend of gluten-free foods

Pea starch offers many health benefits and can be used to make lactose-free, gluten-free, allergen-free solutions. The growing health awareness among fitness-conscious consumers is driving them to go gluten-free. This is one of the primary factors contributing to the market's growth. Pea starch is a gluten-free alternative that also provides other health advantages such as low fat, lactose-free, and allergen-free options, which is driving consumer demand. Furthermore, gluten-free diets lower the risk of diabetes, digestive disorders, and heart disease. Because of the advantages of a gluten-free diet, the pea starch industry has a promising future.

Influence of healthy lifestyle

The growing popularity of vegetarianism, dietary supplements, and flexitarian diets are driving the global pea starch market. The transition of major consumers away from meat consumption, as well as the effect of social media, has had a significant impact on the market's development. Nowadays, millennials are becoming more mindful of the negative effects of meat and dairy products. Thus, the supplemented nutrients derived from alternative food choices are rising the chances of growth for the pea starch industry.

Restraints

Lack of awareness

Consumers are less aware of the superior properties and benefits of pea starch, which is obstructing the growth of the global pea starch market. Furthermore, since there is less awareness and demand for the product, other items such as starch derived from potatoes, maize, and so on become more prevalent in the market. Therefore, these factors may hamper the development of the pea starch industry during the forecast period. However, growing demand for pea starch in various industries such as pharmaceuticals, food and beverages, and cosmetics, as well as rising marketing campaigns by manufacturers, will increase customer attention and aid in industry demand.

Impact of COVID-19 in the industry

The global pea starch market has been facing some constraints as a result of the ongoing coronavirus-induced, which could impede the market growth. The global pandemic has resulted in lockdowns in many parts of the world, hindering the food and beverage industry. Since the pandemic is still going strong in different parts of the globe, severe government directives on social distancing, transportation, and trade restrictions would most likely disrupt the supply chain and lead to a shortage of raw materials. Additionally, manufacturers' growth strategies have been pushed back due to economic uncertainty and stockholders' lockup of funds.

The food & beverages segment occupies the largest share of the global pea starch market

Pea starch is mainly used in food and beverages due to its many functional benefits.

It aids in the enhancement of the texture, reliability, and supremacy of various food products.
