The bean pasta market is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 7.27% over the forecast period to reach a market size of US$3.293 billion in 2030 from US$2.318 billion in 2025.
The adoption of a vegan diet and the rising cognizance of plant-based alternatives are poised to facilitate the healthy growth of the bean pasta market during the next few years. The recent developments in this market will also boost its expansion substantially.
The rise in vegan and plant-based diets is expected to significantly drive the bean pasta market, consequently facilitating its growth. Another factor propelling the myriad of developments in the bean pasta market space is the rising incidence of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and celiac diseases in the region, driving the need for gluten-free food products.
Globally, there has been an increasing interest in plant-based food products, especially in developed economies, characterized by growing consumer awareness about the benefits of consuming food products containing plant proteins. Moreover, a recent change in consumer preference has stemmed from concerns about the negative impacts of animal husbandry on the environment and animal welfare.
Capitalizing on the shift in such preference, there has been an increase in strategic moves by market players who have strengthened their presence in the market. The product launches successfully replicate the sensory experience typically associated with consuming food made from traditional or non-leguminous ingredients. As the strongest drivers, consumers are also facilitating this market's growth by integrating plant-based protein sources into their diets.
Additionally, small disruptor brands that are introducing innovative products in the plant-based market are motivating large food and beverage multinational corporations (MNCs) to broaden their offerings. This shift accommodates plant-based food products and helps these companies maintain their market share, ultimately contributing to the bean pasta market's expansion. Furthermore, forgoing aggressive marketing campaigns over social media is aiding market players in gaining even more traction for their products.
A shift toward sustainable and environmentally friendly products is driving growth.
Increased emphasis on greener options follows consumer awareness about the carbon footprint of food items. The overall environmental impact is significantly lower for the plant-based bean pasta than its traditional wheat predecessor, with less water and land use. At the same time, legumes serve as nitrogen-fixing, soil-quality-enhancing crops that reduce artificial fertilizers. This fits well with the increasing demand for sustainability through better nutrition selection and global concern for climate issues.
The rising imports and exports of pulses are expected to positively influence the bean market in the coming years. For instance, according to the Directorate General of Commercial Intelligence and Statistics, India has emerged as a major player in the global pulses trade, exporting 626,653.80 metric tons of pulses during the financial year 2023-24. This export activity generated revenue worth ?5,689.40 crores (USD 686.90 million), underlining the country's robust agricultural capabilities and strong demand for Indian pulses in international markets.
Similarly, according to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), the U.S. pulse exports totaled USD978.63 million in 2023 and 1.05 million metric tons, indicating continuous growth in demand globally. Over the last three years, the average annual export value was USD 791.63 million, with a compound average growth rate of 2.2% (2014-2023). The key export markets include Mexico (USD 218.97 million) and Canada (USD 210.11 million), followed by the European Union (USD 141.82 million), Dominican Republic (USD 53.73 million), and China (USD 49.22 million). These figures speak to the U.S.'s good position in the world market for pulses, supported by high-quality produce and expanding international partnerships.
