Tempeh Market Growth Driven by Increasing Demand for Plant-Based Proteins by 2033

Tempeh Market

Based on the findings of the prior tempeh market survey, it is anticipated that the market’s value will approximate USD 4.2 billion in 2023. Furthermore, tempeh sales are poised for substantial growth with a projected compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5%, potentially reaching approximately USD 6.8 billion by 2033.

In recent years, individuals who have significantly reduced their meat consumption have increasingly turned to meat analogs that mimic the taste and appearance of meat. Around 16% of the global population consumes soybeans, and many are shifting toward plant-based diets, creating a promising market for tempeh worldwide. Tofu manufacturers have boosted production by 10% in recent years, paving the way for expanding opportunities within the tempeh market.

Tempeh is a fermented soybean product that is high in protein and low in fat. It is a versatile component that may be used in a wide range of meals, such as stir-fries, curries, and salads. The growing number of tempeh brands and products accessible in supermarkets and online retailers is projected to further propel the industry.

Customers feel that consuming tempeh and following a plant-based diet would improve their health and the environment, thus, demand for these products is quickly growing. Compared to tofu and other plant-based proteins, tempeh is a more expensive food. This could make it less appealing to some customers. The demand for plant-based foods like tempeh is rising as the world’s vegan population is expanding quickly. Vegans and vegetarians frequently choose tempeh because it is a rich source of protein and other nutrients.
