Meat Substitutes Market Worth $5.81 Billion by 2022
USAgNet - 09/18/2018

The global meat substitutes market size is expected to reach $5.81 billion by 2022, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is expected to witness a healthy CAGR of 7.5% during the forecast period. Growing preference for vegan diet coupled with rising health awareness is expected to fuel market demand in the near future.

Soy-based meat substitutes led the global market in the past. Wheat-based raw materials are expected to register the highest CAGR from 2015 to 2022, followed by mycoprotein and soy-based meat substitutes. Textured Vegetable Protein (TVP) is the most popular meat substitute, which led the market. However, wheat-based meat substitutes, such as seitan, are expected to experience the maximum CAGR through 2022.

Among the multiple applications, seitan is presumed to witness the fastest growth over the forecast period. The Asia Pacific and Central & South America regions are slated to see strong demand over the next seven years. Europe has been the dominant market for meat substitutes and is presumed to maintain the trend over the forecast years.

On the other hand, regulations and directives related to meat substitute composition and specifications are anticipated to impact the market growth to some extent. Variations and complexities in the regional rules are presumed to have a negative impact on the global, as well as regional markets. However, regulations issued by agencies, such as FDA and FSIS, are anticipated to play a vital role in shaping the global meat substitutes market over the forecast period.

Further key findings from the report suggest:

- Europe emerged as the largest market and generated revenue of $1.40 billion in 2014. It is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of 7.5% over the forecast period

- Wheat-based protein is forecast to reach $308.3 million by 2022 with a CAGR of 9.9% from 2015 to 2022

- Seitan is anticipated to emerge as the fastest-growing segment and is likely to register a CAGR of 10.2% over the forecast years

Industry rivalry is bound to remain medium over the forecast period owing to a handful of market participants. Some of the market participants are Amy's Kitchen, Inc.; Beyond Meat; Vbites Foods Ltd.; Blue Chip Group; MorningStar Farms; Cauldron Foods; and MGP Ingredients, Inc.
