LATAM Single Cell Protein Products Market Insights
The Single Cell Protein (SCP) Products Market in Latin America is steadily gaining momentum, driven by the region’s abundant agricultural byproducts, growing demand for sustainable protein sources, and the need to strengthen food and feed security. LATAM countries are strategically positioned to produce SCP using biomass from sugarcane, maize, and agro-industrial residues, aligning well with global sustainability goals. The rising costs of traditional feed ingredients, combined with the expansion of aquaculture and poultry industries, is prompting companies and governments across the region to explore SCP as a high-protein, resource-efficient alternative. Interest is particularly growing in countries such as Brazil, Mexico, and Argentina where biotechnology and agri-tech sectors are increasingly active.
Despite these positive trends, the LATAM SCP market still faces structural challenges, including inconsistent regulatory frameworks, limited funding for large-scale biotech infrastructure, and a lack of consumer familiarity with SCP for human consumption. Nevertheless, regional opportunities are expanding due to increasing collaboration between academic institutions, startups, and multinational feed companies. Moreover, growing awareness about circular economy practices and environmental conservation is fostering a favorable climate for SCP development, particularly in feed applications. Over the next decade, LATAM is expected to emerge as a key contributor to global SCP supply chains.
