Food ingredient and protein market forecasts

Overview

June‑2026 research reaffirmed earlier forecasts, projecting the global malt‑based drinks market to rise from $27.2 bn in 2025 to $39.2 bn by 2033 (≈4.7 % CAGR) and the U.S. ready‑to‑drink tea segment to reach $19 bn by 2035. U.S. beetroot and green‑tea supplement markets are expected to more than double, hitting $352 mn and $744 mn respectively by 2035, driven by health‑conscious demand and micro‑encapsulation. Global curry‑powder sales are forecast to grow to $1.38 bn and seaweed‑extracts to $8.8 bn by 2033, reflecting rising interest in global cuisines and natural ingredients. Spain is positioned as a leading market in the dietary‑supplement sector, which is projected to reach $432 bn worldwide by 2033, with strong growth in sports nutrition and nutricosmetics. Colombia’s ready‑to‑drink protein beverage market is slated to expand to $3.06 bn by 2031, with plant‑based proteins gaining share. Functional hydration innovations such as Eiralabs’ creatine‑centric drink illustrate the shift toward broader health‑focused beverages. Plant‑based protein drinks have more than doubled launch volume since 2020, entering smoothies, functional coffees and meal‑replacement formats; in the United Kingdom, about 25 % of adults and 37 % of 25‑34‑year‑olds regularly consume protein shakes. In Brazil, the beer sector generated approximately R$13 billion in sales for the 12 months ending June 2026, a 17% increase from the previous year. This growth coincides with a broader trend of protein integration into diverse categories, including sodas, energy drinks, and non-alcoholic beers like Ambev’s upcoming Spaten Pro. Hydro Protein recently launched a 500 ml ready-to-drink beverage in Brazil containing 20 g of protein, electrolytes, and BCAAs. While Brazil’s dietary supplement market is projected to grow by 6.5% annually between 2026 and 2036, consumer concerns regarding safety and efficacy persist; a Minds & Hearts survey found that 77% of Brazilians have avoided supplements due to insufficient information.
