Top 4 Companies in the Global Cricket Protein Powders Market in 2026

The global cricket protein powders market was valued at USD 152.08 Million in 2025. The market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 12.40% during the forecast period from 2026 to 2035, reaching a value of USD 489.48 Million by 2035. The growth is driven by increasing consumer awareness of health, nutrition, and the benefits of higher protein intake, particularly in the protein and functional foods market.

The growing need for iron and calcium, which provide energy, improves muscle performance, and supports brain function, are driving the growth of the cricket protein powder market. They are also beneficial for pregnant women. In addition to supporting weight management, lowering blood pressure, and promoting bone health, calcium is also said to minimise the chance of developing colon and rectal cancer. Over the course of the projection period, all these advantages are anticipated to boost market expansion.

Manufacturers and marketers are promoting the product for its high protein and nutritional content, which has been sold to the general public as a better source of protein than beef. The fact that the cricket protein powders are a good source of calcium and iron is helping the market for these products to expand.

In the past few years, more than 25 start-ups have been launched in North America. This is one of the major factors contributing to the growth of the cricket protein powders market in the region.
