Pulse Flour Market Growth Outlook: How Much Bigger Will The Market Be By 2030?
The pulse flour market has experienced robust expansion in recent years. It is projected to increase from $11.98 billion in 2025 to $13.1 billion in 2026, exhibiting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.3%. The market’s past growth can be attributed to a rising prevalence of gluten intolerance, growing consumption of plant-based diets, broader pulse crop cultivation, increasing demand for protein-rich foods, and the availability of advanced milling technologies.
The pulse flour market is anticipated to experience significant expansion in the coming years, reaching a valuation of $19.32 billion by 2030, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) projected at 10.2%.
