Nigeria Single Cell Protein Products Market Insights
Nigeria’s SCP market is in its early stages, but the need for affordable and sustainable protein sources is strong due to the country’s rapidly growing population and food security concerns. SCP offers a viable solution to supplement protein in both human diets and animal feed, particularly in poultry and aquaculture, which are vital sectors of the Nigerian economy. The country’s abundance of organic agricultural waste also makes it a suitable location for localized SCP production.
However, several barriers hinder market growth, including limited technical infrastructure, inadequate funding for biotech research, and a lack of regulatory clarity. Consumer familiarity with microbial protein remains extremely low. Nevertheless, increasing attention from international development organizations and government-backed initiatives in agribusiness and food innovation are laying the foundation for future SCP applications. If paired with investment in capacity building and public-private collaboration, Nigeria could gradually emerge as a key market for SCP in West Africa, particularly for low-cost feed production.
