Dried Egg Market

Dried Egg Market Outlook (2023 to 2033)

According to Fact.MR, the global dried egg market is valued at US$ 2.41 billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach a valuation of US$ 5.35 billion by 2033-end. Worldwide consumption of dried eggs is projected to surge at 8.3% CAGR over the next ten years.

Fresh eggs or parts of eggs dehydrated using a drying process such as vacuum drying or spray drying are known as dried eggs. They usually have a much longer shelf life as compared to fresh eggs and this is a prime aspect that could bolster the dried egg market evolution over the coming years.

Dried eggs are rapidly taking establishing their place in commercial as well as home kitchens as a staple and this is slated to primarily bolster its demand all over the world in the future. Longer storage time, less storage space required by volume, easily digestible, and affordable are some of the prime benefits of dried eggs that make them a preferred choice over fresh eggs.

Expanding food service and food processing industries are also estimated to boost consumption of freeze-dried eggs, powdered eggs, and dehydrated eggs going forward. Shifting consumer preferences towards protein-rich and healthy diets are also slated to bolster shipments of dried egg products throughout the forecast period and beyond.

On the contrary, frequent outbreaks of animal diseases and the growing adoption of vegan and plant-based diets are anticipated to emerge as major restraints for overall market growth through 2033. Increasing launches of vegan eggs and plant-based eggs are also predicted to put dried egg demand in jeopardy in the long run.

• In May 2022, Evo Foods, an Indian company focused on developing egg substitutes, announced the launch of its vegan egg substitute at Café Mondegar in Mumbai. This plant-based boiled egg was being developed with other yet-to-be-launched plant-based liquid whole egg substitutes.

Which Factors Can Impede the Demand Growth for Dried Eggs?

“High Cost of Processing and Supply & Demand Fluctuations”

Drying eggs is a costly process as it required specialized drying equipment and a skilled workforce to manage the same. The high cost of manufacturing and processing results in an overall increased cost of the end product, which creates an issue in offering competitive pricing thereby impeding dried egg sales to a certain extent.

Frequent outbreaks of animal diseases, seasonal variations, and regulatory changes are some key factors that have a huge impact on the supply chain of fresh eggs, which is the primary raw material required to make dried egg products. Ensuring a stable supply and demand chain is a major restraint that dried egg producers are battling and will continue to do so over the coming years as well.

Surging popularity and adoption of plant-based food products are supplementing the sales of vegan eggs and plant-based eggs, which is impeding the consumption of dried eggs and other egg products. The rising number of people suffering from allergies to eggs is also anticipated to have a negative impact on the overall market development going forward.

Dried egg companies can intricately study aspects such as local supply, pricing trends, product standards, safety regulations, and new developments to craft new strategies that would allow them to overcome the aforementioned challenges and know more about the same from this updated dried egg industry research survey by skilled analysts at Fact.MR, a market research and competitive intelligence provider.
