Rising number of vegan and flexitarian consumers in the middle east has resulted increased market share of food and beverage segment across the region
- By application, the food and beverage industry is the leading application sector for plant proteins in the region. The demand for proteins in F&B is primarily driven by the increasing demand for protein functionalities and awareness about protein-rich diets, etc. Under F&B, the meat/poultry/seafood and meat alternative products segment accounted for the major volume share of 33.19% in 2022. In Saudi Arabia, shops and restaurants offer different vegan and vegetarian products, making people shift from meat to plant-based foods. Tourism in the country from other parts of the world is also contributing to the growth of the meat substitute market in the country. Moreover, as food processing methods are advancing, the demand in the meat substitute sector has risen substantially. The sub-segment is projected to register a value CAGR of 5.86% during the forecast period.
- However, the snacks sub-segment is the fastest-growing sub-segment and is projected to register a CAGR of 10.07%, by value, during the forecast period. Consumers are also becoming more aware of their snacking choices. They are opting for healthier snacks containing nutritious and natural ingredients and free-from claims and labels that benefit their health and wellness.
- The F&B segment was followed by animal feed, with the majority of application share recorded from soy proteins. In 2022, about 81% of plant protein demand in the animal feed segment was met by soy protein due to its abundant availability and lower price points. Over the review period, soy proteins were about 50% cheaper than other plant protein types. Further, legume-based ingredients are a key source of plant proteins for animal feed, and their production can provide a range of benefits both on farms and for feed manufacturers.

Strategic investment by leading players coupled with rising veganism across the region has resulted highest share in Saudi Arabia
- By country, Saudi Arabia maintained its top position, followed by Iran, in 2022, primarily driven by the F&B sector. The market has benefited from large investments, especially by the industry's leading companies, which has led to a solid market structure and organized sales. Nonetheless, the top two countries also remained the fastest-growing in the market. During the forecast period, with a CAGR of 8.36%, Iran is set to record the fastest growth rate by volume. The government of Saudi Arabia released an up-to-date list of animal feed subsidies, including animal feed products, such as soy protein meal. Pea protein is projected to register the highest CAGR of 8.08% by volume, during the forecast period, in the animal feed segment, with increasing government support.
- The plant-based protein market in the region is mostly driven by the food and beverage segment, and the segment registered a CAGR of 6.10% by volume. Demand for vegan food and plant-based meat is increasing in Middle East & Africa, particularly in the UAE. Several major Middle Eastern food brands emphasize vegan meat and other foods.
- The Vegan & Vegetarian Association of Turkey has long advocated for a vegan diet. While several recent regional festivals, including one in Didim, have helped to increase veganism's popularity. Many traditional regional and national dishes, like couscous, falafel, and hummus, are already naturally meat-free and vegetarian. Increased veganism and rising demand for allergen-free sources, especially in modernizing countries like the United Arab Emirates, are further driving the value growth. As a result, sources like pea protein have been gaining prominence due to their ability to act as an excellent substitute for soy protein when incorporated into meat substitutes.

Saudi Arabia and Iran leads the Middle East region in terms of plant protein production
- The graph depicts the production of plant proteins such as rice and wheat in Saudi Arabia and Iran. Plant proteins sourced from rice and wheat emerged as the major plant protein forms in the region. The region has grain-producing areas, but with water scarcity, the region is dependent on imports to feed its population. The International Grains Council (IGC) projects total grains production in 2016-17 in Near East Asia at 64.7 million tons, with Iran at 20.4 million tons, Iraq at 4.8 million tons, Syria at 1.4 million tons, and Turkey at 34.9 million tons. It puts others at 3.4 million tons to make up the total. For instance, the volume of rice production in the Middle East was approximately 2.9 million metric tons.
- The region is a big importer of grains. with total grain imports by Near East Asia at 51.4 million tons. Saudi Arabia鈥檚 imports are put at 15.3 million tons, with Iran鈥檚 at 9.2 million tons and Turkey鈥檚 at 6.7 million tons. Of the total, 4.9 million tons is wheat. The imports include 24.4 million tons of wheat from Near East Asia and 11.5 million from Egypt. Turkey鈥檚 wheat imports are 4.9 million tons, with Iraq and Iran importing 2.5 million tons and Yemen importing 3.1 million tons of wheat.
- In 2016, Saudi Arabia abandoned a long-standing policy designed to encourage local wheat production. The Saudi government is encouraging agricultural companies to invest in foreign countries that have comparative advantages in producing certain crops and re-export their products back to Saudi Arabia. The crops targeted by this initiative include wheat, rice, barley, yellow corn, soybeans, and green forage. The Saudi government provides financial incentives to encourage Saudi investors (companies and individuals) to participate in food security initiatives.

Middle East Plant Protein Industry Segmentation
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. Iran, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates are covered as segments by Country.
- By application, the food and beverage industry is the leading application sector for plant proteins in the region. The demand for proteins in F&B is primarily driven by the increasing demand for protein functionalities and awareness about protein-rich diets, etc. Under F&B, the meat/poultry/seafood and meat alternative products segment accounted for the major volume share of 33.19% in 2022. In Saudi Arabia, shops and restaurants offer different vegan and vegetarian products, making people shift from meat to plant-based foods. Tourism in the country from other parts of the world is also contributing to the growth of the meat substitute market in the country. Moreover, as food processing methods are advancing, the demand in the meat substitute sector has risen substantially. The sub-segment is projected to register a value CAGR of 5.86% during the forecast period.
- However, the snacks sub-segment is the fastest-growing sub-segment and is projected to register a CAGR of 10.07%, by value, during the forecast period. Consumers are also becoming more aware of their snacking choices. They are opting for healthier snacks containing nutritious and natural ingredients and free-from claims and labels that benefit their health and wellness.
- The F&B segment was followed by animal feed, with the majority of application share recorded from soy proteins. In 2022, about 81% of plant protein demand in the animal feed segment was met by soy protein due to its abundant availability and lower price points. Over the review period, soy proteins were about 50% cheaper than other plant protein types. Further, legume-based ingredients are a key source of plant proteins for animal feed, and their production can provide a range of benefits both on farms and for feed manufacturers.
