Plant-Based Collagen Supplements Global Market Report 2025

The plant-based collagen supplements market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $7.02 billion in 2024 to $7.78 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.8%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to rising vegan population, increasing awareness of animal cruelty, early adoption of herbal supplements, shift toward organic nutrition, and initial consumer distrust in animal collagen.

The plant-based collagen supplements market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to " $11.85 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.1%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to growing demand for clean-label products, expansion of e-commerce health platforms, increasing focus on preventive healthcare, rising disposable income in developing nations, and consumer shift toward holistic wellness. Major trends in the forecast period include advancements in plant-extraction technologies, innovations in functional food formulations, developments in bioengineered ingredients, investment in research and development, and collaborations between food tech and beauty brands.

The forecast of 11.1% growth over the next five years reflects a modest reduction of 0.3% from the previous estimate for this market.This reduction is primarily due to the impact of tariffs between the US and other countries. This is likely to directly affect the US by increasing prices for vegan beauty and wellness products, as tariffs on fermented plant proteins from South Korea and Taiwan limit supply.The effect will also be felt more widely due to reciprocal tariffs and the negative effect on the global economy and trade due to increased trade tensions and restrictions.

Growing awareness about the vegan diet is expected to drive the expansion of the plant-based collagen supplements market in the coming years. A vegan diet excludes all animal products, including meat, dairy, eggs, and honey, focusing solely on plant-based foods. This rising awareness is fueled by consumers’ desire for healthier lifestyles and sustainable nutrition options that address environmental and animal welfare concerns. Plant-based collagen supplements play a key role in vegan diets by providing essential nutrients and amino acids that support skin, joint, and bone health while avoiding animal-derived ingredients, aligning with ethical and sustainable choices. For example, according to Finder, an Australia-based fintech platform, in January 2025, about 6.4% of UK adults, roughly 3.4 million people, planned to follow a vegan diet, up from 2.1% in 2024. As a result, increasing awareness of vegan diets is boosting demand for plant-based collagen supplements.

Companies in the plant-based collagen supplements market are concentrating on creating innovative products such as pectin-based gummies to offer natural, vegan-friendly alternatives that support collagen production and meet the growing demand for sustainable, plant-derived wellness solutions. Pectin-based gummies use pectin - a natural carbohydrate from fruits - as a gelling agent instead of gelatin, making them suitable for vegans and vegetarians. For instance, in July 2024, Herbaland Naturals Inc., a Canada-based natural health and wellness brand, introduced Vegan Collagen Booster Gummies. This plant-based supplement is formulated to naturally enhance collagen production with ingredients like lysine, vitamin A, and amla fruit. The product addresses the rising demand for vegan-friendly, natural beauty and wellness options and provides a tasty, sugar-free, and organic choice.

In February 2024, Evonik Industries AG, a Germany-based specialty chemicals company, partnered with Jiangsu Jland Biotech Co. Ltd. to develop and market plant-based collagen solutions for the cosmetics sector. This collaboration aims to broaden their reach in the plant-based collagen market, foster innovation, and deliver more sustainable products for the cosmetics industry. Jiangsu Jland Biotech Co. Ltd., based in China, specializes in developing and producing plant-based collagen solutions for cosmetics and personal care products.

Plant-based collagen supplements are vegan formulations designed to boost the body’s own collagen production instead of providing collagen directly. These supplements typically combine botanical extracts and plant-based amino acids to promote skin elasticity, joint health, and the strength of connective tissues.

The primary types of plant-based collagen supplements include gelatin, hydrolyzed collagen, and native collagen. Gelatin, traditionally derived by boiling animal skin, bones, or connective tissues to extract collagen, contrasts with plant-based sources such as hemp, soy, and pea protein. These supplements come in various forms, including powdered and non-powdered varieties. They are utilized across multiple applications like food and beverages, pharmaceuticals, healthcare, and more. Key distribution channels for these products encompass both offline and online platforms.

The report’s Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.

The rapid implementation of U.S. tariffs and the resulting trade tensions in spring 2025 are having a notable impact on the food and beverage sector. Rising costs for imported ingredients such as olive oil, cheese, and tropical fruits are pressuring food manufacturers to either reformulate their products or absorb reduced profit margins. Beverage producers are similarly affected, with tariffs on aluminum cans driving up packaging costs. Meanwhile, retaliatory tariffs on U.S. agricultural exports like soybeans and pork are disrupting farm-to-processor supply chains. In response, companies are adjusting recipes, increasing local sourcing, and using commodity hedging strategies to manage price volatility.
