United States Pea Fiber Market was valued at US$ 167.3 million in 2024 and is projected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.7% over the forecast period, reaching US$ 246.8 million by 2030. This robust growth reflects increasing adoption across food manufacturing, dietary supplements, and pharmaceutical applications, propelled by the clean-label movement and plant-based nutrition trends.
Pea fiber, derived from the byproducts of pea starch and protein processing, has emerged as a versatile functional ingredient. Its ability to improve texture, enhance moisture retention, and boost fiber content makes it particularly valuable for formulators addressing consumer demands for healthier, more sustainable food options. With regulatory approvals like FDA's GRAS designation, pea fiber continues gaining traction as manufacturers reformulate products to meet clean-label expectations.

Market Overview & Regional Dynamics
The U.S. dominates North America's pea fiber consumption, accounting for 89% of regional market share due to concentrated food innovation hubs and established plant-protein infrastructure. Midwestern states lead production with proximity to pea-growing regions and processing facilities, while coastal areas show strongest demand growth from snack manufacturers and alternative protein companies.
Compared to European markets where regulatory pressures drive fiber enrichment, U.S. growth stems primarily from consumer-led demand for digestive health benefits and plant-based formulations. Domestic production capacity expansions by companies like PURIS and Ingredion position the U.S. as a net exporter to Asia-Pacific markets where clean-label ingredients command premium pricing.
Key Growth Drivers and Emerging Opportunities
The market expansion is driven by multiple converging factors: Rising prevalence of digestive disorders has increased clinical focus on dietary fiber benefits, while plant-based diet trends accelerate demand for pea ingredients. Food manufacturers particularly value pea fiber's neutral flavor profile compared to other plant fibers, along with its non-GMO and allergen-free attributes.
New application frontiers are emerging in pet nutrition, where pea fiber enhances palatability in premium pet foods, and in sports nutrition products targeting gut health. The pharmaceutical sector presents untapped potential for excipient applications and fiber-based drug delivery systems. Private-label growth in retail channels provides another avenue for market expansion as stores develop proprietary healthy product lines.
Industry Challenges and Constraints
The market faces several headwinds including price volatility in feedstock peas tied to agricultural commodity cycles. Supply chain bottlenecks occasionally emerge during peak demand periods due to limited specialized processing capacity. Some technical limitations around water absorption rates in certain applications require continued R&D investment.
Competition from other plant fibers like bamboo and citrus presents substitution risks, while consumer education gaps persist regarding pea fiber's nutritional advantages over traditional fiber sources. Regulatory complexities in product claims around digestive health benefits require careful navigation by market participants.
