味精 (MSG) 市场机会、成长动力、产业趋势分析及 2025 - 2034 年预测

2024 年全球谷氨酸钠 (MSG) 市值为 54 亿美元，预计到 2034 年将以 5.7% 的复合年增长率增长至 95 亿美元。

味精（MSG）是一种源自谷氨酸的钠盐，因其能够呈现鲜味且不会掩盖其他食材的风味，一直是食品业首选的增味剂。随着城市生活方式的改变以及对快速、美味和便捷食品需求的激增，味精的使用范围已远远超出其传统市场。随着快餐、方便食品和大量生产的食品占据食品货​​架，味精在保持口味一致性方面发挥着至关重要的作用。越来越多的全球消费者开始接受味精，关于其健康影响的迷思逐渐被科学依据的保证所取代。多元文化烹饪趋势的兴起，加上对经济实惠且风味浓郁的食材的需求，进一步加速了对味精的需求。零食、调味料和即食食品等加工食品类别是主要的成长动力，同时，餐饮服务业也越来越依赖味精来大规模提升价格实惠的增味产品。

2024年，味精粉市场占有63.8%的市占率。其细腻的质地和极佳的溶解性使其成为混合到各种食品中的理想选择。无论是用于汤品、调味料还是零食，味精粉都能确保风味的均匀分布，这对于大规模食品生产至关重要。味精粉在不同食品领域的适应性使其继续受到以工业和商业终端用户为目标的生产商的青睐。

2024年，麵条、汤类和肉汤市场产值达到17亿美元，这得益于味精在这些主食加工食品中的广泛使用。城市消费者越来越青睐方便快速的即食食品，这些食品只需极少的准备，且不会牺牲口感。味精以经济实惠且可靠的方式提升了风味，满足了这项需求。随着食品製造商在速食和即食食品领域不断创新，味精仍然是提供熟悉而令人满意的口味不可或缺的成分。

由于加工食品和易烹调食品的消费量不断增长，美国味精 (MSG) 市场规模在 2024 年达到 23 亿美元。消费者对方便且不影响口感的餐点的需求推动了味精的广泛应用。美国农业部 (USDA) 和美国食品药物管理局 (FDA) 等监管机构透过强调食品安全和清洁标籤倡议，促使製造商在满足口味预期的同时，专注于生产透明度。随着人们对全球美食和健康美味饮食的日益关注，味精在不断发展的美国食品格局中占据了突出地位。

全球味精 (MSG) 市场的主要参与者包括味之素株式会社、阜丰集团、Great American Spice Company、菱花集团、味丹国际（控股）有限公司、梅花控股集团有限公司、宁夏伊本生物科技有限公司、Prinova、Arshine Food Additives 和 Foodchem International。为了巩固其市场地位，味精产业的公司正在实施多方面的策略。许多公司正在投资先进的发酵技术和清洁标籤生产方法，以迎合监管变化和不断变化的消费者偏好。扩大区域生产能力有助于製造商降低物流成本，同时提高供应可靠性。领先的企业也在加强分销网络，并与大型食品加工商建立长期供应合作伙伴关係。同时，企业正在创新具有清洁标籤吸引力的产品配方，包括天然发酵味精。

The Global Monosodium Glutamate (MSG) Market was valued at USD 5.4 billion in 2024 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 5.7% to reach USD 9.5 billion by 2034.

MSG, a sodium salt derived from glutamic acid, continues to be a preferred flavor enhancer across the food industry due to its ability to deliver the umami taste without overpowering other ingredients. Its usage has expanded well beyond its traditional markets as changing urban lifestyles and the surge in demand for fast, flavorful, and convenient food options fuel growth. As quick-serve meals, instant food, and mass-produced items dominate food shelves, MSG plays a vital role in maintaining consistent taste. A more informed and global consumer base has begun to embrace MSG, with myths about its health impact gradually being replaced by science-backed reassurance. The rise in multicultural culinary trends, coupled with the need for cost-effective ingredients that deliver bold flavor, further accelerates demand. Processed food categories such as snacks, seasoning blends, and ready meals are major growth drivers, along with the increasing dependence on MSG by the food service sector for affordable flavor enhancement at scale.

The powdered MSG segment held a 63.8% share in 2024. Its fine texture and solubility make it ideal for blending into a variety of food products. Whether in soups, seasonings, or snacks, powdered MSG ensures consistent flavor distribution, which is crucial for large-scale food manufacturing. Its adaptability across different food applications continues to drive its preference among producers targeting both industrial and commercial end users.

The noodles, soups, and broth segment generated USD 1.7 billion in 2024, supported by the widespread use of MSG in these staple processed foods. Urban consumers increasingly gravitate toward convenient, ready-to-eat meals that require minimal preparation without sacrificing taste. MSG meets this demand by enhancing savory profiles in an affordable and reliable way. As food manufacturers continuously innovate within the fast food and instant meals segment, MSG remains an indispensable component for delivering a familiar and satisfying taste.

United States Monosodium Glutamate (MSG) Market was valued at USD 2.3 billion in 2024 due to rising consumption of processed and easy-to-prepare foods. Consumer demand for convenient meals that don't compromise on taste is driving widespread MSG adoption. Regulatory agencies such as the USDA and FDA, through their emphasis on food safety and clean-label initiatives, have prompted manufacturers to focus on production transparency while still meeting flavor expectations. With growing interest in global cuisines and health-conscious yet flavorful eating, MSG has secured a prominent place in the evolving American food landscape.

Key players in the Global Monosodium Glutamate (MSG) Market include Ajinomoto Co., Inc., Fufeng Group, Great American Spice Company, Linghua Group, Vedan International (Holdings) Limited, Meihua Holdings Group Co., Ltd., Ningxia Eppen Biotech Co., Ltd., Prinova, Arshine Food Additives, and Foodchem International. To solidify their market presence, companies within the MSG industry are implementing multi-faceted strategies. Many are investing in advanced fermentation technologies and clean-label production methods to cater to regulatory shifts and evolving consumer preferences. Expanding regional production capabilities helps manufacturers reduce logistics costs while enhancing supply reliability. Leading players are also strengthening distribution networks and entering long-term supply partnerships with large food processors. In parallel, firms are innovating product formulations that offer clean-label appeal, including naturally fermented MSG.
