The lecithin market is driven by factors such as increased demand from the feed segment, a shift in preference towards convenience foods in the emerging economies of the Asia Pacific and South American regions. On the other hand, the phospholipids market is driven by the increased demand for natural ingredients in personal care products and cosmetics in countries such as China, India, Japan, and South Korea.

The nutrition & supplement segment is estimated to account for the largest share of the phospholipids market in 2018. The demand for phospholipids is growing in the developing economies of Asia Pacific, Eastern Europe, along with Africa, and the Middle East. Developing regions are expected to emerge as the fastest-growing consumers of phospholipids for pharmaceuticals and nutrition & supplement applications, due to the continuous increase in the per capita income in these regions and the increase in health awareness among consumers for natural ingredients.
