식물성 해산물 원료 시장 : 기회, 성장 요인, 업계 동향 분석 및 예측(2025-2034년)

The Global Plant-Based Seafood Ingredients Market was valued at USD 43.7 million in 2024 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 23% to reach USD 369.3 million by 2034.

The surge in demand reflects consumers' growing preference for sustainable, ethical, and health-conscious foods. Plant-based seafood alternatives are gaining traction due to their ability to closely replicate conventional seafood in taste, texture, and appearance, while addressing concerns about overfishing, marine pollution, and climate change. Consumers are increasingly aware of the health advantages of plant-based diets, including lower cholesterol levels, improved cardiovascular health, and weight management. The primary application of these ingredients is to provide a sustainable and nutritious substitute for traditional seafood, catering to the expanding vegan, vegetarian, and flexitarian populations. These ingredients are utilized in the production of seafood analogs, ready-to-eat meals, snacks, and functional food products, enabling food manufacturers to reduce environmental impact while delivering the sensory qualities consumers desire.

The legume-based ingredients segment held a 45% share in 2024, due to their high protein content, versatility, and environmental benefits. Soy, pea, and chickpea derivatives are increasingly used to replicate seafood textures and flavors for health-conscious and eco-aware consumers. Processing advancements are enhancing their functionality for seafood applications.

The protein ingredients segment held 40.2% share in 2024, focusing on plant-derived proteins that improve nutritional content and functional properties. Innovations in protein extraction and processing have significantly improved taste and texture, while clean-label and allergen-free trends continue to drive product development.
