Starch is manufactured using various sources, including corn, potato, and wheat. As of 2020, the U.S. is the largest corn producer and exporter in the world. The abundant availability of raw materials, coupled with the well-established manufacturing sector in the country, is expected to be a key factor for the industry growth in the U.S.
The flourishing food and beverages industry, especially in emerging economies, such as India and China, has increased the number of buyers of industrial starch in these markets. Cost competitiveness and product quality are likely to be the key factors influencing the buyer's decision. Low switching costs and the presence of several manufacturers across the globe have resulted in high buyer power.
The industry players have been focusing on various strategies such as mergers, expansions, and new product development to gain a foothold in the market. For instance, in March 2021, Cargill, Incorporated introduced label-friendly tapioca under the SimPure line. SimPure products were earlier made only using waxy corn- and potato-based starches. Tapioca starch provides soft texture, strong water-binding properties, and cold-storage stability.
The market is expected to face competition from alternatives, such as alginates, guar gum, gum Arabic, and agar, used in various end-use industries. However, the high scope for product penetration in the continuously innovating food and beverage industry is expected to open new growth opportunities for the industry.
