The specialty food ingredients market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $162.12 billion in 2023 to $173.73 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.2%. The growth observed in the historical period can be credited to several factors, including shifts in consumer preferences, the expansion of the food and beverage industry, heightened awareness regarding health and nutrition, the globalization of food trends, and the trend towards clean label and natural products.
The specialty food ingredients market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $239.2 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.3%. The projected growth in the upcoming period is expected to stem from increased demand for plant-based alternatives, a pronounced emphasis on sustainable and ethical sourcing practices, ongoing innovation in functional foods, the trend towards customization and personalization in the food sector, and the expansion of the convenience food segment. Major trends anticipated for the forecast period encompass growth in functional and fortified ingredients, the broadening of exotic and global flavor offerings, the incorporation of clean meat and cultured ingredients, a focus on texture and mouthfeel enhancers, and the development of customized and tailor-made solutions in the food industry.
The specialty food ingredients market is experiencing growth due to increased consumption of health-oriented products. A growing health-conscious population demands nutritious and sustainable dietary options. Specialty food components are instrumental in enhancing nutritional value, preserving, and improving the quality of food. Reports from the CSIRO highlighted Australians' adherence to dietary guidelines, scoring 93 out of 100 in their beverage choices. The escalating demand for healthier products fuels the growth of the specialty food ingredients market.
Anticipated growth in the food and beverage industry is expected to boost the specialty food ingredients market. Specialty ingredients cater to diverse needs, enhancing flavor profiles, textures, shelf life, and dietary requirements in food and beverage products. In July 2022, food and drink exports from the UK were valued at $31.80 billion (£25 billion), and total turnover increased by 14.4%, with domestic sales rising by 13%. Therefore, the increasing demand from the food and beverage industry drives the specialty food ingredients market.
Product innovation fuels the growth of the specialty food ingredients market, with major players striving to meet consumer demands.

This innovation caters to food manufacturers seeking clean label solutions, offering improved cake structure without the complexities associated with enzymes.
Major players in the specialty food ingredients market focus on innovative solutions such as tapioca starches to meet the surging demand for natural, gluten-free options in food and beverages.

For instance, in January 2021, Tate & Lyle, a US-based provider of food and beverage solutions, introduced REZISTA MAX thickening starches and BRIOGEL gelling starches. These tapioca starch innovations, enhancing texture, fluidity, and process tolerance, empower food manufacturers to create superior products, particularly in dairy desserts, sauces, confectionery, and processed cheese.
