In the United Arab Emirates, the nutritional yeast market is steadily gaining traction as health-conscious consumers increasingly turn to clean‑label, plant‑based ingredients. Demand is driven by rising awareness of nutritional benefits especially high protein and B‑vitamin content and the burgeoning vegan and wellness market in premium foodservice, supplements and upmarket bakeries. However, growth is somewhat restrained by limited consumer familiarity and occasional scepticism toward unfamiliar functional ingredients, alongside sensitivity to higher price points compared to conventional seasonings or yeast products. Regulatory scrutiny also imposes constraints, as any health claims must be substantiated by scientific evidence, and approvals across formats remain complex. Opportunities abound in product innovation such as flavoured nutritional yeast powders and fortified forms tailored for snacks, sauces and convenience foods as well as in leveraging e‑commerce to reach niche vegan and health‑oriented consumers across the Emirates. A notable trend is the incorporation of nutritional yeast into plant‑based and gluten‑free offerings in Dubai and Abu Dhabi innovation hubs
