Global
yeast market is segmented on the basis of type, application, speciality yeast
and geography. Yeast is used in the process of fermentation for its abilities
in imparting better aroma, aiding carbon release, taste, texture and flavor to
food. Yeast is important ingredient in the bakery industry and globally
increasing demand for bakery goods, especially in the developing economies such
as China, India, countries in South America, Africa and other regions is
expected to significantly boost the volume use of yeast.
Further,
the increase in global consumption of alcohol has resulted in increasing
production of alcoholic beverages such as beer and wine. The major factors
driving the growth of the yeast market are positive trend in consumption of alcoholic
beverage, increasing demand for functional bakery products, and enhanced
production of animal feed augmented with minerals. However, growing competition
for basic raw materials is one the major hindrances in the growth of the yeast
market. In the years to come, yeast market will have a huge opportunity with
respect to replacement of molasses with filtered dates and also from increasing
concerns over the usage of artificial flavor enhancer.
Based
on type, the yeast market is segmented into baker’s yeast, brewer’s yeast, wine
yeast, feed yeast, bio-ethanol yeast, nutritional yeast, supplement yeast,
industrial yeast and so on. Baker’s yeast accounted for the biggest share;
followed by brewer’s yeast in 2015. In the same year, Europe did account for
the greatest share in baker’s yeast. North America did contribute for the
second-largest share. The demand on the part of baker’s yeast is driven by the
increasing demand for high-value baked goods such as cookies and cakes that are
marketed at the global level by large companies.
Based
on application, the yeast market is segmented into food & beverage sector,
feed sector, pharmaceutical & industrial sector and so on. Based on form,
the yeast market is segmented into dry yeast, instant yeast, fresh yeast and
other includes bread machine yeast and rapid-rise yeast. The “fresh yeast”
market’s growth is directly proportional to the trend shifting toward fast and
processed food consumption, bakery items in particular. Fresh yeast is broadly
used in bakery products such as pastries and breads as it has good fermenting
qualities and does provide an excellent taste. Europe was the biggest market
for fresh yeast and accounted for maximum share in 2015. Asia Pacific is, at
present, one of the most promising markets for fresh yeast, as the demand is
continuously increasing with increase in population and altering demand for
processed food products.
Based
on speciality yeast, the yeast market is segmented into yeast extracts, yeasts
autolysates, yeast beta-glucan, yeast derivatives (includes yeast flavor
enhancers, yeast saccharides and yeast pigments), nucleotides, minarals,
vitamins and so on. Based on geography, the yeast market is segmented into
Europe, Latin America, Asia Pacific, North America and Middle East &
Africa.The North America and Europe are the market leaders but in future
competition is likely to increase in the market of Asia Pacific region. The key
