Market Segmentation

The global edible insects market has been studied by Market Research Future (MRFR) in their latest analysis for different types of insects, the applications of these insects, as well as various distribution channels used for the same. There are several types of edible insects, namely, bees, ants, caterpillars, wasps, scale insects, grasshoppers, beetles, mealworm, locusts, and crickets. The consumption of beetles is the highest as compared to other types of insects. Edible beetles pose as a high source of protein and are a better alternative to chicken and beef. The second most popular insect consumed across the globe is crickets. Voluminous use of crickets and mealworm in the production of snack bars, energy bars, and protein bars is expected to occur, thanks to a high level of protein in these insects.

Different uses of edible insects are observed in different end-user industries such as food & beverages, savory snacks, bakery products, and animal feed. Consumption of edible insects as savory snacks is expected to skyrocket, making the use of insects for such preparations prime. This can be credited to the exceptionally high nutritional value with the presence of high proteins, vitamins, potassium, zinc, calcium, and amino acid content. Furthermore, rising demand for convenience food & savory snacks is anticipated to fuel the demand for edible insects during the forecast period.

Different distribution channels used for meeting the demand for edible insects are store-based and non-store-based distribution channels. However, since consumers generally check the qualitative aspects of edible insects before buying, store-based distribution channels have high demand, as compared to non-store-based distribution channels.
