Rising Preference for Umami Flavors Fuels the Asia Pacific Chicken Powder Market
Rising modernization, changing lifestyles, and changing taste preferences boost the demand for umami flavors across the world. Umami is considered the fifth primary taste-next to sweet, sour, bitter, and salty. Umami flavor imparts a savory taste to the food items. Thus, it has become a popular flavor among food and beverage manufacturers aiming to improve the taste of low-sodium offerings. Umami adds a 'brothy' or 'meaty' taste to end products. Thus, with increasing popularity, the demand for umami-flavored products is increasing among the global population.
The umami flavor is mainly obtained from various meat extracts such as beef, chicken powder, and pork extracts. Chicken powder is used in various foods and beverages to bring the umami taste and mouthfeel. Moreover, umami gives a meaty flavor to the end product. The savory quality of Umami can make food items taste richer without adding sodium or fat. Therefore, the preference for umami flavor increases among manufacturers to cater to the rising demand of consumers. Kerry Group offers umami stocks that are clean-label and can be used in prepared meals, soups, sauces, gravies, burgers, and poultry applications.
Thus, the rising preference for umami flavors is expected to provide lucrative opportunities for the Asia Pacific chicken powder market during the forecast period.
Asia Pacific Chicken Powder Market Overview
The chicken powder market in Asia Pacific is segmented into Australia, China, India, Japan, South Korea, and the Rest of Asia Pacific. The increasingly high number of consumers in Asia Pacific countries are opting for animal products as a preferred source of protein. The region holds promising growth potential for the chicken powder market players due to the flourishing food industry.

Manufacturers such as Neogen Corporation and Ottogi New Zealand Ltd. use livestock and poultry products to enhance the flavor and fragrance of their soups, sauces, nuggets, snacks, ready-to-eat meals, etc. Thus, the demand for meat extract such as chicken powder as a raw material is increasing among manufacturers, which is expected to drive the chicken powder market in Asia Pacific during the forecast period.
