High Demand for Gluten-free Flours: Wellness Trends Fueling a $2.62 Billion Market Shift
Gluten-free is emerging as a major growth driver in the global functional flour market. Rising awareness of gluten sensitivity and celiac disease, combined with the perception that gluten-free diets support digestion, weight management, and overall wellness, is fueling demand worldwide. In 2023, the US gluten-free food products market reached $2.62 billion, underscoring its shift into the mainstream. This trend is spurring innovation in nutrient-enriched flours with added fiber, protein, and vitamins, while also creating opportunities for premiumization as established brands and new players expand their gluten-free portfolios.
Chickpeas, Lentils & Beans - The Legumes Segment Records the Fastest-Growing CAGR of 8.17% In the global functional flour market, the legumes segment, covering chickpeas, lentils, peas, and beans, is set to record the fastest growth, with a CAGR of 8.17% during the forecast period. Valued for being naturally gluten-free, protein-rich, and packed with fiber, vitamins, and minerals, legumes are becoming a preferred choice for both health-conscious consumers and food manufacturers. Their versatility spans a wide range of applications, from bakery, snacks, and breakfast cereals to soups, sauces, protein bars, and baby foods. Rising demand for plant-based proteins, growing awareness of their health benefits, and ongoing product innovations are fueling this strong growth outlook.
North America Stronghold in the Functional Flour Market
North America continues to dominate the global functional flour market, with the United States and Canada emerging as key contributors. Growing demand for bakery, confectionery, and ready-to-eat products is fueling market expansion across the region. In 2022, the average food spends per person in the US reached $780, reflecting robust consumer expenditure on food products, a trend that is expected to sustain market growth in the coming years.
The North American food industry is actively focused on enhancing nutritional value through innovative product offerings, positioning functional flours as essential raw materials across a diverse range of applications. Expanding availability of specialized flours, coupled with rising consumer preference for healthier alternatives, is further boosting adoption.
Manufacturers are also investing heavily in research and development to improve both taste and quality, ensuring functional flours deliver the nutritional benefits consumers seek without compromising on the appeal of traditional products.
