In 2024, Bahrain import trend for pea flour showed a steady increase, driven by rising consumer demand for plant-based protein alternatives. Imports of pea flour into Bahrain grew consistently throughout the year, reflecting a shift towards healthier and sustainable food choices in the market.

Bahrain`s pea flour market is benefitting from the shift toward plant-based and gluten-free diets. Pea flour, milled from yellow peas, is a high-protein, high-fiber alternative to traditional flours and is used in pasta, bakery products, snacks, and sauces. Its ability to improve nutritional content while maintaining texture makes it valuable in both conventional and functional foods. The local food industry is increasingly exploring pea flour to meet the demand for healthier alternatives and innovative food products.
Bahrains pea flour market is gaining traction, primarily driven by the increasing awareness of gluten-free and plant-based alternatives. The demand from the food and beverage sector for ingredients rich in protein and dietary fiber has contributed to the steady rise in consumption of pea flour. The market is also supported by consumer interest in ethnic and health-conscious recipes, where pea flour is a staple. Food processors in Bahrain are incorporating pea flour in baked goods, snack items, and meat analogs, further strengthening the market outlook.
Pea flour, although gaining recognition in plant-based and gluten-free baking, faces several barriers in Bahrain. Traditional baking habits and a strong preference for wheat-based products restrict demand. Imported pea flour remains expensive due to shipping and customs duties, and local production is virtually nonexistent. The absence of food manufacturers using pea flour at scale further limits awareness and market penetration.
Pea flour is gaining traction as a gluten-free and protein-rich alternative in the food industry. Investment potential lies in import-export trade, packaging innovation, and developing local brands offering ready-to-use flour mixes targeting health-conscious consumers.
Bahrains food security strategies include promoting alternative flours such as pea flour to enhance dietary diversity. Policies provide incentives for local milling and processing operations while enforcing food safety standards to ensure quality and market competitiveness.

Export potential enables firms to identify high-growth global markets with greater confidence by combining advanced trade intelligence with a structured quantitative methodology. The framework analyzes emerging demand trends and country-level import patterns while integrating macroeconomic and trade datasets such as GDP and population forecasts, bilateral import–export flows, tariff structures, elasticity differentials between developed and developing economies, geographic distance, and import demand projections. Using weighted trade values from 2020–2024 as the base period to project country-to-country export potential for 2030, these inputs are operationalized through calculated drivers such as gravity model parameters, tariff impact factors, and projected GDP per-capita growth. Through an analysis of hidden potentials, demand hotspots, and market conditions that are most favorable to success, this method enables firms to focus on target countries, maximize returns, and global expansion with data, backed by accuracy.
By factoring in the projected importer demand gap that is currently unmet and could be potential opportunity, it identifies the potential for the Exporter (Country) among 190 countries, against the general trade analysis, which identifies the biggest importer or exporter.
