New York, Sept. 19, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Rising environment concerns globally, reduction in meat consumption, growing health concerns, and changing dietary patterns are key factors contributing to high CAGR of Meat Substitutes during the forecast period.
According to the current analysis of Reports and Data, the global Meat Substitutes market was valued at USD 4,471.7 Million in 2018 and is expected to reach USD 7,694.0 Million by the year 2026, at a CAGR of 7.0%. These products are analogs which have meat-like texture but are healthy and cholesterol-free. The meat substitutes market is primarily driven by the increasing preference for plant-based products and vegan diet. Also, the rich nutritive profile of these products is expected to fuel the market demand, globally. Shifting consumer interest from animal products is major due to rising concern about animal welfare, personal health, and sustainability. The intake of animal protein results in high cholesterol level, fat, and calories, that increase the risk of cardiac disease, obesity, high blood sugar level.
Regulations and initiatives by agencies, such as FDA and FSIS, related to product composition and specifications are also expected to influence growth in the meat substitutes market. The major challenge faced is the availability of substitute products and high perishability rate of Tofu and tofu-based products. The high cost of processing cost involved in the production of alternatives has led to a high price of the substitute products, such as Tofu and tempeh and this is expected to hinder the industrial growth.
Europe dominated the meat substitutes market in 2018 with a share of 32.6%. Growing adoption of vegan diet in the region is a key factor influencing market growth. Moreover, increasing availability of these products is also likely to have a positive impact on the market. For instance, in 2019, McDonald's introduced a new product: Big Vegan TS, which includes vegan burger across Germany. Though some countries in European such as France, Portugal and Switzerland have not yet witnessed the adoption of ‘fake meat’ on a large scale, countries including Britain and Sweden have consumed nearly twice as many meat alternatives in 2018 as compared to the U.S.
