Global Market Overview
According to market research (Mordor Intelligence, 2021), the global tofu market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 5.1% between 2021 and 2026.
The shift toward plant-based diets, combined with rising health awareness, continues to drive this expansion. Since the COVID-19 pandemic, consumer behavior has significantly changed—meat supply disruptions and the rising concern for sustainable protein sources have accelerated tofu consumption worldwide.
Tofu, being rich in plant protein, calcium, and essential amino acids, has become a vital protein alternative for both vegetarians and flexitarians.
Regional Insights
Asia-Pacific (APAC)
China remains the world's largest producer and consumer of tofu. With growing vegetarian populations and government support for soybean agriculture, China, Thailand, and the Philippines are emerging as key tofu markets.
In these regions, tofu is widely used in stir-fries, soups, and fried dishes—a versatile substitute for meat protein.
Europe and North America
The demand for tofu in Europe and the U.S. is driven by consumers seeking healthy, sustainable diets. Tofu is increasingly featured in burgers, sandwiches, and ready-to-eat meals, often seasoned or firm-textured to appeal to non-vegetarian audiences.
This innovation in texture and taste makes tofu a mainstream choice in plant-based food development.
Market Drivers

| Vegan & Flexitarian Boom | Rising adoption of vegan and flexitarian diets |
| Plant-based Protein Awareness | Growing awareness of plant-based protein benefits |
| Sustainability Trends | Increasing popularity of sustainable food production |
| Product Innovation | Product innovation in flavored and pre-cooked tofu |
During 2020-2021, tofu prices rose as demand surged globally—particularly in Asia and North America. Tofu's affordability, shelf life, and protein density make it an ideal ingredient in the expanding alternative protein market.
Sales Channels
Tofu is sold across multiple distribution channels, including:
- Supermarkets & Hypermarkets
- Convenience Stores
- Health Food Stores
- Online Retailers
The rapid growth of e-commerce and plant-based product platforms further accelerates tofu accessibility worldwide.
