Nigeria Starch Processing Market Analysis and Size
The growing demand for starch in the food & beverages industry and its application in pharmaceutical industries for health-improving drugs and syrups, along with increasing demand for non-food grade starch products, are the main drivers propelling the starch processing market's expansion.
In addition to the food business, industrial starch is utilized in non-food industries like paper, mining, textile, building materials, and consumer goods. The market for industrial starch is expanding due to rising packaging demand, which is likely to increase demand for starch processing.
Data Bridge Market Research analyses that the starch processing market is expected to reach a value of USD 574.11 million by 2030, at a CAGR of 5.2% during the forecast period.

Starch, or amylum, is a complex carbohydrate in many foods, including grains, vegetables, and fruits. Maize, tapioca, wheat, potatoes, and other plant foods are the main sources of starch. Pure starch is extracted from food to create a powder that is white, odorless, and tasteless but does not dissolve in alcohol or cold water. Starch extraction from plant seeds, roots, or tubers is known as starch processing. The entire starch extraction process uses the physical separation method to separate cellulose, protein gradually, and other non-starch elements to obtain a pure and white starch powder. The produced starch powder and the raw starch have the same chemical makeup. The extraction of starch causes no chemical alterations. However, utilizing sulfur dioxide as an acid in the processing could result in a small amount of starch molecular breakdown, which could slightly reduce the starch levels in the sticky paste.
Starch Processing Market Dynamics
This section deals with understanding the market drivers, advantages, opportunities, restraints, and challenges. All of this is discussed in detail below:
Drivers:
Increase in the demand for starch in the food & beverages industry
People consumed raw, unprocessed vegetation with high starch content in the past. These starches were fermented or digested by microorganisms in the large intestine, which created short-chain fatty acids that provided energy and supported the microbes' survival and growth. However, when the consumption of highly processed meals rose, it became simpler to digest and release more glucose in the small intestine, which led to less starch reaching the large intestine and more energy being absorbed by the body. Because major players are creating cutting-edge products to appeal to a broad consumer base, this aspect is predicted to drive food starch sales in Nigeria.
Growth application in pharmaceutical industries for health-improving drugs and syrups
One of the few naturally occurring products that, with minor processing, satisfies most of the excipient specifications is starch, making it one of the most commonly used pharmaceutical excipients. It is cheap, readily available, odorless, non-toxic, and biocompatible. In its natural state, starch is employed to create various dosage forms, each of which depends on it for its unique functionalities.
Natural resources like starch are freely accessible. Due to its various physical and functional characteristics, it is adaptable and has been used in various sectors. The high density of hydroxyl groups on the surface allows for several modifications or derivatives. This application is based on how it interacts and reacts in moisture, specifically water. This growing application in the pharmaceutical industry may act as a driver for the Nigeria starch processing market.
Restraint
Ineffective agronomic practices and inefficient management of production resources
The demand for starch-based crops and their products is growing quickly. However, the sub-population region is increasing geometrically, and current food production is insufficient to meet their needs. Nigeria is currently the world's greatest cassava grower. However, the trend in yield performance (output per hectare) is still negative. This low yield can be attributed to poor agronomic techniques and improper production resource management. In sub-Saharan Africa [SSA], inadequate management of agricultural areas has continually hampered sustainable food production. Despite more than 60% of Nigeria's population working in agriculture, this has significantly contributed to the agricultural sector's poor performance and inefficient use of productive resources.
Ineffective agronomic techniques and ineffective resource management will be key inhibitors for the Nigeria starch processing market.
Opportunity
Availability of affordable raw materials for the starch manufactures
The agricultural cultivation of plants with a high starch content, such as potatoes, wheat, corn (maize), cassava, and rice, serves as the primary supply of raw materials for synthesizing starch. The choice of raw material will rely on the possibilities for agricultural production in the production locations. Nigeria produces the most starch crops, and many acres are cultivated there. Because of this, starch manufacturers may readily get the highest production raw materials at reasonable costs. This easily accessible and reasonably priced natural resource gives producers many opportunities, such as obtaining more starch from fewer investments and spending the remaining investment on research and product development.
This region's abundance of raw materials is the primary factor driving opportunities for starch manufacturers to grow in the market.
Challenge
Limited starch processing mills and manufactures
The majority of the world's cassava is produced in Nigeria. Despite being the world's greatest producer of cassava, Nigeria lacks the factories and industries necessary to process and turn the root vegetable into industrial raw materials; as a result, it is primarily consumed locally as fufu or gari. As a result of the majority of them providing certain essential infrastructures for the day-to-day functioning of their plants, which drives up the cost of production, the government's attempt to support local starch processors is negligible. There are challenges for the starch makers due to inadequate processing facilities and deterioration of raw materials due to the high production costs and limited government support.
Recent Developments
In July 2022, Golden Agri Inputs Ltd, a subsidiary under the Agro-Allied Division of Flour Mills of Nigeria Plc (FMN), launched a Maize and Soybean Value Chain Development Programme for farmers called YALWA (Abundance) in Kaduna State following an official MoU signing ceremony with the State Government.
In May 2022, The Greenhills Cassava Farmstead team launched the second scheme at Ihunbo Ogun, State Nigeria. The Ihunbo farm is a 50-hectare farmland with a Certificate of Occupancy from the Ogun State Government.
