The Peptide CDMO (Pharmaceutical) Market Size is valued at 2.5 Bn in 2024 and is predicted to reach 6.6 Bn by the year 2034 at a 10.4% CAGR during the forecast period for 2025-2034.
Peptides are bioactive molecules that bind to specific cell surface receptors, such as G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) or ion channels, where they trigger intracellular effects. Peptides have characteristics like safety, high specificity, and targeted drug delivery which are expected to create the future potential of expanding peptide therapeutics business. Increasing clinical demand for peptides favours the business of CDMOs.
Major driving factors of the peptide CDMO (pharmaceutical) market are the growing clinical applications of peptides, advancements in medical technologies, surging investments by pharma companies in peptides to develop drug therapies, increasing cases of chronic diseases, and a growing number of health-conscious people. Several drug-developing industries outsource their peptide production operations to CDMOs (contract research, development, and manufacturing organizations) to achieve better operational efficiency and flexibility, which is projected to propel the growth of the peptide CDMO (pharmaceutical) market in the coming years. However, the high cost of outsourced services and the need for specialized expertise for peptide production may restrict market growth during the projected period.
The peptide CDMO (pharmaceutical) market is segmented based on the scale of operation, method used, applications, synthesis types, and region. The scale of operation segment comprises preclinical/clinical and commercial. By method used, the market is classified into chemical synthesis method and non-chemical synthesis method. The market is segmented into peptide supplements, peptide vaccines, peptides as radio-theranostic agents, cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs), affinity ligands, and protein mimics based on applications. The market is divided into LPPS (liquid-phase peptide synthesis), SPPS (solid-phase peptide synthesis), and mixed-phase synthesis types. The SPPS segment is expected to dominate this market over the forecast period. Region-wise, the market is studied across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, the Middle East, and Africa.

InsightAce Analytic follows a standard and comprehensive market research methodology focused on offering the most accurate and precise market insights. The methods followed for all our market research studies include three significant steps – primary research, secondary research, and data modeling and analysis - to derive the current market size and forecast it over the forecast period. In this study, these three steps were used iteratively to generate valid data points (minimum deviation), which were cross-validated through multiple approaches mentioned below in the data modeling section.
Through secondary research methods, information on the market under study, its peer, and the parent market was collected. This information was then entered into data models. The resulted data points and insights were then validated by primary participants.
Based on additional insights from these primary participants, more directional efforts were put into doing secondary research and optimize data models. This process was repeated till all data models used in the study produced similar results (with minimum deviation). This way, this iterative process was able to generate the most accurate market numbers and qualitative insights.
Secondary research
The secondary research sources that are typically mentioned to include, but are not limited to:
The paid sources for secondary research like Factiva, OneSource, Hoovers, and Statista
Primary Research:
Primary research involves telephonic interviews, e-mail interactions, as well as face-to-face interviews for each market, category, segment, and subsegment across geographies
The contributors who typically take part in such a course include, but are not limited to:
Data Modeling and Analysis:
In the iterative process (mentioned above), data models received inputs from primary as well as secondary sources. But analysts working on these models were the key. They used their extensive knowledge and experience about industry and topic to make changes and fine-tuning these models as per the product/service under study.
The standard data models used while studying this market were the top-down and bottom-up approaches and the company shares analysis model. However, other methods were also used along with these – which were specific to the industry and product/service under study.
