In Canada, the nutritional yeast market continues to grow steadily, driven by increasing consumer adoption of plant‑based and vegan diets, rising health awareness, and demand for clean‑label, functional foods. The food and beverage segment dominates usage, as nutritional yeast is widely featured in vegan cheeses, sauces, snacks, and seasonings due to its savoury umami taste and rich B‑vitamin and protein content. However, market expansion is restrained by higher price points relative to conventional yeast products and limited consumer familiarity beyond health‑savvy demographics . Opportunities abound in product innovation—particularly fortified nutritional yeast enriched with vitamin B12, zinc, and selenium for immune and energy support as well as in expanding distribution via e‑commerce and specialty health retailers to reach broader audiences. A notable trend is the development of organic and sustainable yeast sources aligned with circular‑economy practices, meeting evolving consumer preferences for transparency and sustainability
