Soya chunks, also known as texturized vegetable protein (TVP), are pellets derived from the byproduct of soybean oil production. These pellets are made using the defatted soy flour that remains after the extraction of soybean oil. They have meat-like flavor and fibrous texture and are widely used as meat substitutes for vegetarian consumers. In addition, they are rich in calcium, polyunsaturated fats, carbohydrates, dietary fiber, omega-3 fatty acids, iron, and sodium. Owing to these properties, soya chunks are widely used as snacks, meal replacements, and ingredients in various dishes and curries.
Innovations and Emerging Opportunities in the Soya Chunks Industry:
- The top soya chunk companies are launching new variants of non-genetically modified organisms (non-GMO) and gluten-free products in various shapes, colors, and textures to meet the diverse needs of customers.
- They are also adopting advanced production methods to ensure that the soya chunks remain soft and absorb more flavor to enhance the taste of soy-based cuisines.
- Moreover, various key players are making heavy investments in research and development (R&D) activities and engaging in mergers and acquisitions (M&A) and partnerships to expand their product portfolio and strengthen their foothold in the market.
