The U.S. was the largest market in the North American region for protein supplements, with total revenue of USD 8.44 billion in 2021. Increasing consumers’ acceptance toward food supplementation, the availability of world-class athletics and fitness infrastructure, high disposable income, and positive government outlook is expected to augment the demand for protein supplements. Milk is the key raw material used for extracting whey and casein proteins. Soy is also a key raw material for plant-based protein. Volatility in the prices of raw materials including milk and soybean, owing to supply and demand constraints, is expected to result in fluctuations in the prices of protein supplements.

The prices of proteins extracted from animal sources are witnessing a rise, thereby pushing manufacturers to look for cheaper alternatives. Plant-based proteins like soy, canola, rice, wheat, and pea are becoming increasingly popular as supplements. Various companies are looking for new opportunities by valorizing the ingredients to enhance the nutritional content of the products or by developing new applications for vicelin, globulins, prolamins, and albumins, among others.

The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in the increased intake of protein supplements to strengthen the immune system. As per a two-week survey conducted by Glanbia plc, a key nutrition products producer, in April 2020 to track the impact of COVID-19 on consumers spending on food and nutrition products in the U.S., the percentage of respondents who consumed protein bars to stay healthy and boost immunity increased from 21% in week 1 to 23% in week 2 of March 2020. The consumption of ready-to-drink protein shakes also increased substantially post the COVID-19 outbreak.
