Growing awareness regarding the health benefits of spirulina super food among consumers and wide variety of natural colors produced by spirulina are the major factors propelling growth of the spirulina market. Furthermore, the government of countries such as India, Ghana, and Angola are promoting the production of spirulina, considering its health benefits, thus strengthening this market. Spirulina comprises high anti-oxidant, hypolipidemic, beta-carotene, and anti-inflammatory properties.

Asia Pacific is expected to be the fastest growing market for spirulina, witnessing highest CAGR of 14.48%, owing to robust growth of the food processing industry in the region. Furthermore, growing demand for spirulina powder among vegetarian consumers is another factor fueling growth of this market, as spirulina is a 100% vegetarian dietary supplement. According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, India recorded the lowest rate of meat consumption in the world in 2007, which is due to the large number of vegetarian demographics, residing in India. Rapidly growing aquaculture in the region is expected to fuel the spirulina market during the forecast period, owing to the extensive consumption of spirulina in aquatic farming and hatchery.

On the basis of composition, the market is segmented into protein, carbohydrates, minerals, lipids, and others, with protein being the major contributor in the global growth of spirulina market, as of 2016.

However, the spirulina protein is superior to all standard plant protein, including legumes.
