Probiotic Ingredients Market Size To Reach $6.98 Billion By 2033

Prebiotic Ingredients Market Growth & Trends

The global probiotic ingredients market size is anticipated to reach USD 6.98 billion by 2033, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 9.1% from 2026 to 2033. The demand for probiotic ingredients is expected to grow owing to the rising awareness among people regarding maintaining overall health, wellness & nutrition, which in turn increases the demand for immunity-boosting products.

Bacillus coagulant, a spore-forming probiotic ingredient, is witnessing ascending demand from the food and beverages segment as it is used in a wide range of functional food and beverage products. The rising popularity of functional food & beverages among youngsters as well as the growing demand for probiotic ingredients in the animal feed industry will further boost the demand.

Probiotic bacteria strains are used in various end-use industries such as food & beverage, dietary supplements, and animal nutrition, among others. In order to produce healthy probiotic strains, it is important to produce them in a viable form and make them suitable for consumption. Some of the technologies used in the manufacturing of probiotic ingredients include spray drying, spray cooling, fluid-bed agglomeration & coating, freeze & vacuum drying, and emulsion-based techniques.

Preventive healthcare includes dietary choices and a healthy lifestyle that help to prevent the occurrence of diseases. Preventive healthcare awareness is growing as a result of a variety of factors, including rising disposable incomes, improved living standards, and the aging population. The easy availability of information about preventive healthcare on the internet is also helping to raise awareness. These factors are expected to contribute to the overall growth of the industry.

Europe is estimated to hold a substantial share of the global industry during the forecast period. Increasing awareness campaigns conducted by major organizations in Europe such as the International Scientific Association for Probiotics and Prebiotics (ISAPP) and the Europe International Probiotics Association (IPA) in various industries and institutions are propelling the regional industry growth.
