Global Plant-Based Meat Market Segmentation
The global plant-based meat market research report includes a detailed segmentation by source, meat type, storage, distribution, and geography. Soy accounts for the largest share of plant-based meat protein sources globally, contributing approx—67% of the global plant-based meat market share. The growing health concerns associated with the consumption of animal protein-sourced foods and the adoption of flexitarian and vegetarian diets are expected to drive the consumption of soy in the global vegan market in the future. However, the demand is projected to decline during the forecast period due to the high prevalence of soy allergies.

Manufacturers are coming up with plant-based beef substitutes, which offer natural, organic, and vegan alternatives. The alternative beef market witnessed enormous growth, with over 25% YOY increase in the US in 2018 compared to 5% in the beef segment. Increased efforts to enhance consumer awareness of the environmental impact of beef consumption is driving consumers to opt for sustainable substitutes. Beef substitutes are expected to continue to drive market growth in the future. Plant-based beef is still a niche segment in the global plant-based meat market and has enormous growth opportunities in the recent future, with growing penetration and demand for plant-based substitutes.

The frozen plant-based meat market accounted for approximately 65% of the shares in 2019. Traditionally, veg and meat burgers have been available in frozen aisles; however, plant-based meat has followed suit. With the growing awareness among consumers, plant-based items from the frozen aisle are expected to grow in demand during the forecast period. Since frozen aisles in retail stores are overflowing with premium offerings, including plant-based products, they are expected to appeal to consumers.

In terms of distribution, the global plant-based meat market was dominated by supermarkets and hypermarkets, which accounted for a share of over 59% in 2019. Consumers will always prefer retail sales through these stores because of the presence of all types of grocery products under one roof. In North America, Walmart, Whole Foods Market, Costco, and Kroger are the major retailers of plant-based protein products. Retail supermarkets are increasingly incorporating vegan food and beverages, owing to the growing consumer demand.

Europe accounted for the largest plant-based meat market globally, accounting for over approx. 39% of the market revenue in 2019. One of the major factors that are driving the demand for plant-based meat, especially in the UK, is the rise of ethical and health-conscious consumer segments. This growth is partly led by the millennial generation and the emergence of the 'flexitarian' consumer. Further, significant media coverage of the impact of meat and dairy product production on global warming and resource consumption on greenhouse gases. The growth of animal welfare rights groups has gained significant traction and has caused a significant switch in consumer preferences.
