Food and Beverages sector dominates due to strong demand from dairy & dairy alternatives and supplements

  • The F&B sector dominates the end-user market, due to the growing need for whey, wheat, and pea protein in F&B products. Because of the extensive use of soy-based plant protein, the dairy and meat alternatives market continued to hold the leading position. Together, the two sub-segments made up 61.3% of the total volume of the F&B segment in the region in 2022. Since soy can replicate muscle texture when stacked into linear fibers, soy protein leads the protein market. This boosts its use for high-moisture extrusion, gelling, and protein fortification. To produce the requisite anisotropic product structure, these meat analogs are extruded at high moisture contents (>40%) and elevated temperatures above 100 °C.
  • Animal feed is the second-largest segment, where insect protein dominates and holds 53.8% of the market volume. The market potential for animal feed is further expanded by the introduction of sustainable alternative protein sources like insect protein. To provide a cost-effective and efficient source of feed-grade protein, companies like Darling Ingredients, Aspire Food Group, and Enterra Corporation are expanding their manufacturing capacities in the region.
  • Personal care and cosmetics is the fastest-growing segment, and it is projected to register a CAGR of 6.48% by value during the forecast period. ​In the United States, 6.8 million people suffer from hair problems such as alopecia areata. Collagen peptides, which are the hydrolyzed form of collagen, nourish the hair bulbs and strengthen the hair follicles by fostering the ideal conditions for healthy hair growth. OGX Biotin & Collagen Shampoo, Salcoll Collagen Hair Mist, Hair La Vie Foundation Collagen Elixir, etc. are a few examples of hair care products containing collagen.
North America Protein Market

United states holds majority of share in 2022 due to strong presence of various food manufacturing units

  • The overall North American protein market witnessed a favorable growth rate of 9.09% in terms of sales value in 2020. The United States led the market in 2020 due to high production consolidation in the country and an active competitive landscape. Companies are strengthening their presence in the country by acquiring small firms, ramping up protein production units, and expanding their product portfolios. Companies such as Agropur, Anchor Ingredients, and Hilmar Cheese boosted their production capabilities over the review period. Thus, constant product developments and differentiation in the market further resulted in additional sales by volume.
  • Canada remained the second-largest market in 2022, driven by consumers pushing for diversification of protein sources. Animal proteins are being replaced by new functional foods and value-added products that are being created by the booming plant-protein industry. In 2022, more than 40% of people in Canada actively strive to increase their consumption of plant-based foods. The popularity of plant-based protein sources recently increased due to their suitability for vegetarian, vegan, and "flexitarian" lifestyles.
  • Mexico is likely to be the fastest-growing region, with a projected volume CAGR of 6.46% during the forecast period. The Mexican market is dominated by the demand for plant proteins in the country, and it is anticipated to register a CAGR of 6.67%, by value, during the forecast period. Due to the rising awareness among Mexican consumers about food safety, environmental sustainability, and animal welfare aspects of meat, a shift from animal protein products to plant-based protein products was observed among a significant portion of the country.

North America Protein Market Trends

Animal protein consumption growth fuels opportunities for key players in the ingredients sector

  • Despite the rising vegan population, the demand for animal protein has been steady in the United States. The majority of protein in the American diet comes from beef and poultry, followed by dairy. In 2022, 80% of U.S. adult consumers preferred pork, beef, poultry and fish as their main sources of protein. The market is majorly driven by the growing usage of gelatin in the functional food industry due to its water-binding properties.
  • Consumers continue to demand traditional protein options, but they are clearly signaling an expectation of the animal protein industry to do more to address environmental concerns. With a wide range of applications and consumer preferences toward a healthy lifestyle, many US ingredient manufacturers are trying to enter the collagen market, which is the major reason for the increase in per capita consumption patterns. From 2019 to 2021, the unadjusted prevalence of doctor-diagnosed arthritis in the United States was 24.2% among women and 17.9% among men. Owing to the prevalence of arthritis in the region, there is an increasing demand for collagen-based supplements for bone and joint health.
  • Value-added dairy products drives the per capita consumption of milk protein in Canada. Fluid milk, cheese, cream, and yogurt are mainly consumed dairy products in the country. In 2022, the total domestic consumption of cow milk amounted 10,243 Thousand MT. The sales data for marketing year 2022/23 indicated that Canadians spent more on whole milk (3.25 % butterfat) and less skim milk (0% butterfat) and reduced-fat milk. Canadians eat a moderate amount of red meat. Per capita consumption of beef and poultry are high in Canada compared to pig meat and sheep meat.

Meat and milk production contributes majorly as raw material for animal protein ingredients

  • The graph given depicts the production data for raw materials such as meat of cattle, pigs, and chicken (with bone, fresh or chilled), raw milk from cattle and goats, skim milk from cows, and dry whey powder. In 2023, 2,408,7 pounds milk was produced per cow an increase of 1.30% from 23,777 pounds in 2020. As of 2022, average number of milk cows in the United States was 9,402. Milk is usually separated through various processes into components and processed into fluid beverage milk or the manufacture of other dairy products.
  • United states is the world's largest producer of chicken meat and accounted for 20% share of the global chicken meat production in 2023. Cattle meat is one of the most common sources of collagen providing a significant amount of this unique protein. With the largest fed-cattle industry in the world, the United States is also the world's largest producer of cattle meat, primarily high-quality, grain-fed cattle meat for domestic and export use.
  • Nearly 70% of Canada’s milk production is concentrated in Quebec and Ontario. Milk produced in Canada supplies two markets: the fluid milk market, which includes fluid milk for direct consumption, creams, and flavored milks; and the industrial milk market. FAS/Canada forecasts total milk production to reach 10.310 million metric tons (MMT) in 2024, a modest increase from the 2023 estimate of 10.265 MMT. Canada’s meat processing companies manufacture a wide variety of meat products ranging from fresh and frozen meat to processed, smoked, canned and cooked meats, About 70% of processed meats in Canada, such as sausages or cold cuts, are made with pork

North America Protein Industry Segmentation

Animal, Microbial, Plant are covered as segments by Source. 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.

  • The F&B sector dominates the end-user market, due to the growing need for whey, wheat, and pea protein in F&B products. Because of the extensive use of soy-based plant protein, the dairy and meat alternatives market continued to hold the leading position. Together, the two sub-segments made up 61.3% of the total volume of the F&B segment in the region in 2022. Since soy can replicate muscle texture when stacked into linear fibers, soy protein leads the protein market. This boosts its use for high-moisture extrusion, gelling, and protein fortification. To produce the requisite anisotropic product structure, these meat analogs are extruded at high moisture contents (>40%) and elevated temperatures above 100 °C.
  • Animal feed is the second-largest segment, where insect protein dominates and holds 53.8% of the market volume. The market potential for animal feed is further expanded by the introduction of sustainable alternative protein sources like insect protein. To provide a cost-effective and efficient source of feed-grade protein, companies like Darling Ingredients, Aspire Food Group, and Enterra Corporation are expanding their manufacturing capacities in the region.
  • Personal care and cosmetics is the fastest-growing segment, and it is projected to register a CAGR of 6.48% by value during the forecast period. ​In the United States, 6.8 million people suffer from hair problems such as alopecia areata. Collagen peptides, which are the hydrolyzed form of collagen, nourish the hair bulbs and strengthen the hair follicles by fostering the ideal conditions for healthy hair growth. OGX Biotin & Collagen Shampoo, Salcoll Collagen Hair Mist, Hair La Vie Foundation Collagen Elixir, etc. are a few examples of hair care products containing collagen.
