Galacto-oligosaccharide Market Summary
The global galacto-oligosaccharide market size was estimated at USD 906.8 million in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 2,080.8 million by 2033, and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 9.7% from 2025 to 2033. The increasing usage of galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS) in infant nutrition, functional foods, and dietary supplements is driving market growth.
Growing consumer awareness about gut health, rising demand for prebiotics, expanding applications in animal feed and cosmetics, and the development of symbiotic products are contributing to the market's steady expansion.
Galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS) are a type of prebiotic, which are non-digestible food components that selectively stimulate the growth and activity of beneficial microorganisms in the gut. GOS specifically is made from lactose and is considered one of the most studied and widely used prebiotics, with applications spanning from food and beverages to dietary supplements and animal feed. The growing demand for GOS is primarily driven by increasing consumer interest in gut health, immunity, and overall well-being, alongside advancements in manufacturing technologies that enhance its production.
According to the International Probiotic Association report on the 2024 Prebiotics Ingredients Market, growing consumer awareness of gut health and understanding of prebiotics are driving GOS demand. Rising chronic diseases like obesity (1 in 8 people globally in 2022) and heart conditions (620 million cases in 2023) encourage the adoption of functional ingredients.
