Market Dynamics
• The growing demand for meat coupled with rising population and consumer preferences towards meat products is resulting in over slaughtering and depletion of animal sources. This is resulting in rise of sustainability as a key purchasing factor particularly among millennial and GenX population. Consumer concern towards environment and animal welfare are driving the demand for meat substitutes. Furthermore, stringent regulations laid by several state and federal governments towards raising and slaughtering of meat animals is boosting the growth of plant-based meat market. On demand side, the growing outbreak of food borne diseases particularly due to animal meat and milk products is motivating consumers towards healthy plant based alternatives, thus boosting the growth of plant-based meat products. The growth of the market is also attributable to the health benefits associated with plant derived diets. The growing trend of veganism and vegetarianism is providing immense growth potential to the market in future. According to The VeganSociety, vegan population in U.K. increased from 150,000 in 2014 to 600,000 in 2018.

According to the United States Department of Agriculture, production of soybeans in the U.S. increased from 3.04 billion bushels in 2012 to 4.54 billion bushels in 2018.
