The egg powder market in Europe is facing challenges due to rising veganism, impacting demand. Bird flu outbreaks further strain supply, while the pet food sector sees growth.
The widespread application of eggs in baked goods, infant nutrition, pet food, and dietary supplements has created huge opportunities for stakeholders in the egg powder market. The Food and Agriculture Organization rates the biological value of egg protein at 93 on a scale of 100. Egg powder possesses characteristics such as emulsification, thickening, moisturizing, and foaming and is a common poultry product with a long shelf life. Egg powder has a high level of microbial safety and can be stored for almost seven years. Egg powder is easy to transport, export friendly, and requires minimal refrigeration and smaller storage spaces leading to significant growth in the egg powder market from 2021 to 2025.

Countries Cull Chicken to Contain Bird Flu Directly Impact Supply of Egg Powder
Regular outbreaks of avian diseases such as bird flu have resulted in a shortage of egg powder as culling is the solution deployed to contain epidemics. In 2020, the demand for chicken plummeted by 70% globally and the price of eggs dropped by 15% in India which had a cascading effect as the subcontinent is one of the largest producers of eggs. Bird flu had a massive impact on European countries such as Belgium, the Netherlands, France and Germany. The Netherlands alone culled approx. half a million chicken. In APAC, the UAE imposed a temporary ban on importing domestic birds, chicks, and hatching eggs causing a supply disruption. Egg price fluctuations, the need to maintain year-round availability and consistency coupled with egg vulnerability to disease has compelled food processors shift towards egg powder.
Vegan Trends in Europe Cutting Demand for Egg Powder in Largest Egg Powder Market
Egg powder is manufactured primarily in the UK, US, China, Japan, and India with Europe being the largest consumer. However, the rising prominence of veganism on the continent is making manufacturers invest in plant-derived substitutes such as pea, soy, and potato protein. The APAC region is predicted to demonstrate the highest CAGR over the forecast period. India is already a key player in the global poultry industry and discerning consumers there along with the growing baking industry will only boost the prospects of companies in this populous country.
