Processed Meat Market Outlook 2025-2034: Key Trends, Growth Drivers, and Market Share

"How Are the key drivers contributing to the expansion of the processed meat market?
The processed meat market is projected to grow due to the rising consumption of diverse processed food items. Processed food pertains to food products that have been frozen, canned, cooked, packed, or nutritionally altered through methods such as fortification, preservation, or preparation. The appeal of processed meat lies in its enhanced taste, lower chance of meat-related infections, extended shelf life, and portability. To illustrate, data from the United States Department of Agriculture, a US federal agency, in September 2023 stated that the total value of processed food exports from the US was $36.61 billion, a 6.63% increase from $34.19 billion in 2021. In the same year, Canada's exports of processed food products amounted to $12.23 billion, while Mexico's reached $5.86 billion. Thus, the escalating consumption of varying processed foods is anticipated to fuel the processed meat market's expansion.

What are the emerging trends shaping the future of the processed meat market?
One trend that is rapidly gaining traction in the processed meat industry is the rise of plant-based meats. These are food products derived from plant sources that are intended to serve as an alternative to meats derived from animals, including steaks, sausages, burgers, fillets, bacon, nuggets, and a vast array of other popular dishes. For instance, Beyond Meat, a business based in the United States that focuses on creating plant-based meat substitutes that closely resemble the taste and texture of actual meat, introduced its latest product, Sun Sausage, in July 2024. This marked their first plant-based product that does not attempt to mimic the flavors of beef, pork, or chicken. This unique protein product, which is intended to be incorporated into a variety of food dishes, includes wholesome ingredients such as spinach, bell peppers, brown rice, and red lentils. Sun Sausage comes in three unique flavors - Pineapple Jalapeno, Pesto, and Cajun - and is exclusively available at Sprouts Farmers Markets nationwide.
