The demand for pea protein as a source to remain high during the forecast period
The market for pea proteins as a source of meat substitutes is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The growth in this market is due to the high nutritious value of pea protein. Furthermore, pea offers the benefits of process stability, emulsion stability, and extrusion stability. Key players in the global meat substitutes market are focusing on the production of pea protein-based meat substitutes due to their nutrition value and health benefits, as well as the adoption of this protein by major plant-based manufacturers. In addition, companies such as Beyond Meat (US) are investing and expanding in the pea protein segment, as it has a high nutritious value and is allergy-free.
The textured segment is estimated to dominate the meat substitutes market due to the increase in acceptance of dry soy chunks for burger patties
The textured segment, by type, is projected to be the fastest-growing segment and account for a maximum market share during the forecast period. This is due to the low prices associated with textured protein. Textured protein is generally used as a meat substitute, or sometimes as a meat extender, with protein concentration between 50%-70%. It has a texture similar to ground beef. Hence, it is a perfect meat substitute for spaghetti sauces, hamburgers, and tacos. Due to these factors, the segment is projected to dominate the market.
The solid segment is estimated to dominate the meat substitutes market due to the increase in consumption by food manufacturers
The solid segment, by form, is projected to dominate the global meat substitutes market during the forecast period. This is due to the high consumption of solid meat substitutes in powder and chunks forms. Solid meat substitutes also help to increase the shelf life of products, which help food manufacturers to buy solid meat substitutes at a wholesale level. This reduces the cost of raw materials. These factors have been driving the growth of this segment for the past few years.

With the increase in demand for plant-based meat, North America is estimated to dominate the meat substitutes market in 2019
The change in lifestyle and increase in buying power of consumers have led to a rise in demand for meat substitutes. The growth of the region is due to the increase in sales of plant-based meat products in North America and the rise in acceptance of convenience foods among consumers due to their hectic lifestyles. In addition, consumers in the region are adopting a flexitarian lifestyle and are incorporating plant-based foods in their daily routine diets. In Canada, plant-based meat is a relatively emerging area, wherein consumers are willing to add plant-based foods to their diet due to the health concerns related to the consumption of animal protein products.
In recent years, the rise in innovation in plant-based meat products has also been witnessed in the US. These factors are also projected to drive the market growth. Major companies of this region, such as Cargill (US) and ADM (US), are increasingly focusing on investing in innovations to provide better products to their customers.
