COVID-19 Impact on Chickpea Protein Market
The outbreak of COVID-19 is expected to exhibit a dual impact on the growth trajectory of the chickpea protein market. As concerns regarding health surge across the world, consumers are actively seeking healthy food products, which is expected to boost the consumption of chickpea protein. However, operations in the food processing sector – the largest consumer of chickpea protein – have come to a screeching halt, leading to a downfall in demand. However, the demand for healthy, dairy-free food in Europe, where normality in the food sector is gradually returning post-pandemic, is likely to alleviate the challenge to an extent.
