The stringent regulations in the production of food and feed formulations, along with 
environmental damage caused by harmful gas leakage can restrict the entry of new players. 
Moreover, the high use of acid in end-use applications, specifically in pharmaceutical and 
functional food, can facilitate new competitors with several opportunities. Therefore, it can 
reduce the threat of new entrants. 
Under the application segment, the food and beverage application are the significant revenue 
contributor to the industry, accounting for 83%. It is led by the wide usage of glutamic acid as

the flavor of salad dressings, canned vegetables, carbohydrate-based snacks, processed dairy 
goods, and meat. 
In addition, the worldwide rising popularity of ready-to-drink beverages, and convenience food 
is projected to proliferate the industry growth. The increased requirement for such products is 
expected to improve living standards and economic development in developing countries such 
as China and India. Along with this, the rising popularity of energy drinks is projected to result 
into the industry propulsion.
