Summary • Canada is the largest exporter of pulses in the world, with exports valued at

C$2.77 billion in 2013. Of that total, C$280.8 million or 10% is exported to the European Union (EU), which is primarily comprised of lentils and kidney beans.

• Over 64% of Canada’s total kidney bean exports are destined for the EU. • The EU is a key market for pulse products; it is the second-largest importer of pulses in

the world behind India. The EU imported C$1.14 billion of pulses from external trading partners in 2013, with 22.5% of that total coming from Canada.

• Further, if new product launches are an indication of interest in pulse products, the EU market is offering burgeoning opportunities for exporters.

• Over the January 2010 to January 2014 review period, a total of 3,593 new products were launched in the EU that utilized some sort of pulse ingredient. The number of launches has grown each year, almost doubling from 2012 to 2013. As well, the new products launched within the first seven months of 2014 are already more than what was recorded in all of 2012.

• Pulse ingredients are used across a huge spectrum of food products in the EU, and this versatility presents many opportunities for Canadian exporters to supply this growing market.

Launch Totals

• A total of 3,593 new products were launched in the European Union over the January 2010 to July 2014 period that utilized pulse ingredients.

• Of these, 40% were totally new products, and 40% were new varieties/range extensions, suggesting a burgeoning interest in using and incorporating pulse ingredients.

• The EU countries that recorded the most new pulse products were the United Kingdom (with 1,014 products, or 28% of the total launches), France (766 or 21%), Germany (392 or 11%), Spain (348 or 10%), and Italy (207 or 6%).

• The countries with the fewest new products were Hungary, with just 16 new products over the review period, and Greece with 20.

• Of the 3,593 products, 35% contained chickpea ingredients, 34% contained pea ingredients, 25% contained bean ingredients, and 14% contained lentil ingredients. The number of products falling under these ingredient categories as a proportion of total launches has remained relatively constant in each year of the review period.

– *Note: the percentages for each ingredient category will add to more than 100%, as products can contain more than one of these ingredients.

• Chickpea was overwhelmingly the top-most pulse ingredient used by the new launches, appearing in just over 26% of the total products.

• White beans, black beans, and red and green lentils were also among the top 10, although with far less occurrences.

• The remaining ingredients found within the top 10 were not pulses in their whole form, but rather, processed pulse ingredients such as flour, and fractions such as fibre, protein and starch, which are used in a variety of final products.

0. Overview of Products with Pulse Ingredients

The use of pulse ingredients is widespread across manufacturers in the EU – the top 10 companies launching products with pulse ingredients over the review period only accounted for 845 of the total 3,593 launches, or 24%. Beyond the top 10, most companies accounted for less than 1% of the total launches, suggesting the diversity of use for pulse ingredients.

Of the total new products, 59% were launched under a brand name, while 41% were private label. However, private labels are growing their pulse-ingredient products at a faster rate - from 2010 to 2013, private label launches increased by a compound annual growth rate of 49%, compared to 37% for branded.

A total of 1,223 new products were launched in the EU using pea ingredients over the Jan 2010-July 2014 review period. New varieties/range extensions were the most common launch type overall (41% of the total launches) having surged ahead in 2012 and 2013 – perhaps suggesting an increased effort to incorporate pea ingredients within existing product lines.

The top 5 pea ingredients were pea protein (31% of the launches), pea fibre (26%), pea starch (18%), pea flour (10%), and yellow split pea and pea protein hydrolysate, which tied for fifth place with 7% each. It appears that peas are largely used for their fractions, rather than in their whole state.

The use of pea-based ingredients has been actively promoted by major pea processors in the EU, including Roquette (France), Cosucra-Groupe Warcoing (Belgium) and Emsland (Germany).

Conclusion • The EU is the world’s second-largest pulse importer, and a growing market for new

products with pulse ingredients that saw 3,593 launches over the January 2010 to July 2014 review period.

• Since Canada is the largest international exporter of pulses but currently represents just 22% of EU imports, there may be opportunities to further supply this market.

• Key countries of note are the UK and France, which were the top two EU countries in terms of new product launches overall, as well as within each of the 4 pulse ingredient categories analyzed here.

• Chickpeas appear to be the most prominently used pulse ingredient among new products in the EU, possibly due to their versatile use in whole form and an already established presence on the market. Chickpeas appear in a range of popular products from spreads and vegetable dishes to meat substitutes.

• In terms of launch type, the total number of completely new products was almost equal to the total number of new varieties/range extensions (1,441 and 1,437 respectively). This presents opportunities for Canadian manufacturers to export new and unique offerings, but also to supply pulse ingredients that can be incorporated into new formulations of existing product lines within the EU. 59
