Mannan Oligosaccharide Market Report 2026

The mannan oligosaccharide market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $2.14 billion in 2025 to $2.26 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.8%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increasing adoption of prebiotics in animal feed, rising awareness about gut health in livestock and pets, growth in poultry and aquaculture production, expansion of functional food and nutraceutical industry, innovation in feed additive formulations.

The mannan oligosaccharide market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.76 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.2%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to rising demand for natural and functional feed additives, increasing focus on animal welfare and health, growth of pet food and livestock feed industries, technological advancements in feed-grade and pharma-grade mos, expansion of veterinary and therapeutic applications. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing use of prebiotics in animal nutrition, rising demand for gut health supplements in livestock and poultry, growing awareness of functional ingredients in pet food, expansion of feed-grade mannan oligosaccharide applications, innovation in pharma-grade mos for therapeutic applications.

The growing consumption of animal-based nutritional products is expected to drive the growth of the mannan oligosaccharide market in the coming years. Animal-based nutritional products include foods or supplements derived from animal sources that provide essential nutrients such as protein, vitamins, and minerals for human consumption. This consumption is increasing due to rising health awareness and the growing demand for protein-rich diets. The use of mannan oligosaccharides is supported by this trend, as they promote gut health, enhance nutrient absorption, and strengthen the immune system in animals, ultimately improving overall growth and performance. For example, in March 2025, according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS), an Australia-based official national statistical agency, per capita consumption of meat and poultry products increased by 2.3% compared with 2023, reflecting a clear rise in animal-based protein intake in the national diet. Therefore, the increasing consumption of animal-based nutritional products is driving the growth of the mannan oligosaccharide market.

The growing demand for dietary supplements is expected to drive the expansion of the mannan oligosaccharide market in the future. Dietary supplements are products designed to complement the diet by supplying nutrients that may be lacking or insufficient from food, without replacing a balanced diet. Increasing health awareness and efforts toward disease prevention have fueled the demand for supplements that improve immunity, energy, and overall health. Mannan oligosaccharides serve as prebiotics, promoting the growth of beneficial gut bacteria. This supports digestive health, enhances immune function, and helps maintain a balanced gut microbiome. For example, in January 2024, a report from Nutrition Integrated, a UK-based company offering data and insights on active nutrition, highlighted that the variety of clear protein powder products in Europe had increased by 159% since January 2022. Additionally, Amazon sales data showed a 216% rise in consumer purchases of clear protein powders in the UK in 2023 compared to 2022. Thus, the increasing demand for dietary supplements is contributing to the growth of the mannan oligosaccharide market.

Mannan oligosaccharides are complex carbohydrates naturally derived from the cell walls of yeast or certain plant sources. Renowned for their prebiotic properties, they promote the growth of beneficial bacteria in animal digestive systems. As a feed additive in animal nutrition, they contribute to gut health improvement and bolster immunological function.

The primary types of mannan oligosaccharides include food grade, feed grade, and pharmaceutical grade. Food-grade mannan oligosaccharides, derived from yeast cell walls, find application in food and feed sectors due to their prebiotic properties. These applications encompass dietary supplements, medical uses, and veterinary food, catering to end users such as the pet food industry, pharmaceutical sector, and aquaculture.
