Meticulous Research®—a leading global market research company, published a research report titled ‘Crickets Market—Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast (2024-2031)’. According to this latest publication, the crickets market is expected to reach $5,923.4 million by 2031, at a CAGR of 29% from 2024 to 2031.
The growth of the crickets market is
driven by several factors, including their high nutritional value and
increasing acceptance among consumers. Additionally, rising greenhouse gas
emissions from the livestock and poultry industries, a growing demand for
cricket-based food products, and a low risk of zoonotic disease transmission
associated with cricket consumption further contribute to this market
expansion. However, the absence of a standardized regulatory framework, along
with psychological and ethical barriers to insect consumption, restrains the
market growth.
In addition, emerging economies in
Latin America, Asia, and the Middle East & Africa provide growth
opportunities for market players. However, the market faces substantial
challenges, including a lack of awareness about crickets' benefits. Furthermore,
increasing preference for protein-rich diets and environmental sustainability
are prominent trends in the crickets market.

regional and country levels.
By product, the whole cricket segment is anticipated to
hold the dominant position, with a share of 47.5% of the
market in 2024. The large market share of this segment can be attributed to the
lower cost of whole insects compared to processed alternatives, their abundant
availability, and the increasing demand from protein ingredients and food
manufacturers for whole insects to be utilized in various applications and
further processing.
By species, the house cricket segment is anticipated to
hold the dominant position, with a large share of the crickets market in 2024.
The large market share of this segment is primarily driven by the high
nutritional value of house crickets in both human and animal nutrition, their
cost-effectiveness, and the growing acceptance, approval, and production of
this species as a viable food and feed source. Rich in protein, house crickets
surpass other cricket species in nutritional content, making them an increasingly
popular choice for human consumption and animal nutrition.
By application, the processed whole crickets segment is
anticipated to hold the dominant position, with a share of 28.0% of
the market in 2024. The large market share of this segment is primarily driven
by the abundant availability of whole crickets, the rising consumption of
cricket-based foods, and the high nutritional value of crickets for human
consumption.
By end use, the human consumption segment is anticipated
to hold the dominant position, with a large share of the crickets market in
2024. The large market share of this segment is attributed to the rising demand
for innovative and sustainable food solutions to address the needs of a rapidly
growing global population. Moreover, crickets' high nutritional value, the
increasing preference for eco-friendly protein sources, and the heightened
awareness of the benefits of high-protein foods further contribute to this trend.
By distribution channel, the business-to-business segment is
anticipated to hold the dominant position, with a large share of the crickets
market in 2024. The large market share of this segment is attributed to the
growing B2B cricket trading and the rising demand from food manufacturers and
the food service industry. Additionally, B2B distribution channels facilitate
cricket suppliers’ reaching new geographic markets by forming partnerships with
businesses across various regions. This approach allows companies to scale
operations, expand their presence, and effectively serve a global customer
base.
