What Drivers Are Propelling the Growth of Alternative Protein Market Forward?
The surge in preference for proteins derived from plants is anticipated to drive the expansion of the alternative protein market in the future. Plant-based proteins, as the name suggests, come from plant sources unlike traditional proteins which are animal-based. These proteins can be found in a variety of plant foods and are a popular choice among individuals who adhere to vegetarian, vegan, or plant-based lifestyles. They are employed in alternative protein products to replace conventional animal proteins, providing an eco-friendly, humane choice. Plus, compared to animal proteins, plant-based proteins come with several advantages including lower saturated fat levels, high fibre content, lesser environmental footprint, and ethical reasons. For instance, figures from the Good Food Institute, an American non-profit institute, from April 2023 reveal that global retail sales of plant-based meats and seafood in 2022 stood at $6.1 billion. This equates to an 8% revenue growth and a 5% weight increase. The combined sales of plant-based milk, cheese, and yogurt globally also reached an impressive $21.6 billion, reflecting a 7% increase from the previous year's total. Consequently, the rising preference for plant-based proteins is triggering the expansion of the alternative protein market.
