Omega-3 ingredients are highly sought after because of how well-liked they are with consumers. Omega-3 ingredient sales totalled US$ 7.4 billion in US dollars in 2023, increasing at a CAGR of 10.8% over the forecast period. By 2033, the market for omega-3 ingredients is anticipated to bring in US$ 20.6 billion.
According to the Food Marketing Institute, 44% of adults do not consume fish or seafood on a regular or seldom basis, resulting in a diet deficient in omega-3 components. This provides manufacturers of omega-3 ingredients with an excellent opportunity to meet dietary requirements.
Animal sources (algal, fungus oil, fish oil, and krill oil) and plant sources (chia seed oil, sunflower oil, flax seed oil, hemp, soybean oil, canola oil, primrose oil, and camelina oil) can all be used to make omega-3 supplements. To obtain a competitive advantage, manufacturers are investing substantially in the discovery of novel sources of omega-3 components.

Rising Vegan Population Fuelling Demand for Plant-Based Omega-3 Ingredients
A vegan diet does not include two essential omega-3 ingredients in their diet i.e., EPA and DHA as these are primarily derived from animal sources such as fish. As the vegan population is growing rapidly owing to increasing awareness, manufacturers are focusing on the production of omega-3 ingredients from the plant as the source. Manufacturers are striving to discover more such plant sources for omega-3 ingredients for supporting this growing segment of the population.
