The global pulse flour market stands at a value of US$ 20.2 billion in 2023 and is forecasted to reach US$ 54.9 billion by the end of 2033. Worldwide shipments of pulse flour are predicted to rise at a stellar 10.5% CAGR over the next ten years.
The focus on health and fitness across the world has bolstered in the past few years owing to the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases, and this has subsequently resulted in the high demand for healthy foods. Pulse flour is made from pulses such as chickpeas, lentils, beans, etc., and is highly nutritious as compared to regular flour.
A growing number of people opting for plant-based diets, rising preference for veganism, increasing investments in R&D in the food and beverages industry, rising per capita disposable income, growing availability of new pulse flour products, and high incidence of celiac disease are some key prospects that are anticipated to sculpt pulse flour consumption trends going forward.
Pulse flour is highly nutritious, rich in fiber, low-fat, and also has a low glycaemic index. The aforementioned factor makes it an active ingredient in many functional foods and healthy foods that are increasing in demand throughout the world.
Moreover, increasing demand for gluten-free products is also expected to boost sales of products such as pulse bread, pulse pasta, pulse chocolates, etc. Pulse concentrates are also being used by many manufacturers owing to their high protein and nutrient-rich composition in the manufacturing of nutraceuticals and dietary supplements.
Contrarily, a lack of awareness of the benefits of consumption of pulse flour is anticipated to have an impeding effect on the overall market development throughout the forecast period.

“Growing Popularity of Veganism & Plant-based Diets to Fuel Demand for Pulse Flour”
Increasing prevalence of celiac disease and rising incidence of gluten-related allergies are prime factors that have resulted in the high adoption of veganism and plant-based foods. Growing awareness of health and fitness has resulted in increased demand for non-GMO (genetically modified organism) flour and this trend is projected to fuel sales of black gram bean flour, chickpea flour, gram pulse flour, and other types of pulse flour in the North American region.
The region is also home to highly attractive markets such as the United States and Canada, which lead the growth charge in this region. Canada is the second-largest producer of pulses across the world and the largest exporter of pulses as well. The aforementioned factor opens up highly lucrative business scope for local as well as international pulse flour manufacturers.
Consumption of pulse pasta, pulse syrup, and pulse bread is anticipated to increase at a good pace across the forecast period. Demand for pulse flour in North America currently accounts for more than 25% of the global market share.
“New Companies Should Focus on Innovation to Expand their Business”
Upcoming pulse flour suppliers are focusing on raising new capital to invest in research and development that helps them broaden their product portfolio and expand their business scope across the world.
“United States to Spearhead Demand for Pulse Flour”
Heightened focus on health and fitness is expected to be a prime factor that is forecasted to drive consumption of pulse flour in the U.S. across the forecast period. High consumer spending potential, rising demand for plant-based food products, and increasing demand for clean-label food ingredients are other aspects that are slated to govern pulse flour sales through 2033.
Stringent mandates implemented by the government and regulatory authorities to prevent food contamination and adulteration are also expected to favor market development in the country. Shipments of pulse flour in the U.S. are forecasted to increase at an impressive 10.1% CAGR throughout the forecast period. Chickpeas and beans are the most popular pulses in the country and hence, are expected to witness a bright demand outlook.
“Pulses Largely Consumed as Processed Foods in Japan”
Japanese consumers have been consuming pulses in the form of processed foods and this opens up new opportunities for pulse flour suppliers over the coming years since the country heavily relies on imports to meet its food and beverage demand. Pulse flour manufacturers are also deploying new strategies to maximize their business potential in Japan by launching new products such as pulse bread, pulse pasta, etc. Sales of pulse flour are anticipated to rise at 6.9% CAGR over the next ten years in Japan.
“Advancements in Agriculture Technology to Open Up New Business Avenues”
Investments in research and development of novel food and agricultural technology have been high in the European region and this trend is anticipated to have a positive impact on pulse flour consumption in the future. Food and beverage manufacturers in Europe have been focusing on improving the quality of pulse crops by genetically modifying seeds and using other advanced techniques to improve harvest yield and meet the increasing demand.
On the other hand, the increasing popularity of veganism and plant-based diets, changing consumer preferences, rising awareness about the benefits of plant-based foods, and growing demand for healthy ingredients in bakery & confectionery products are other factors that are slated to boost pulse flour shipments in European countries such as Germany, France, Italy, and the United Kingdom.
