Plant-based protein held the largest segment in 2023 and is expected to maintain its dominance over the forecast period. The growth of this segment will be propelled by the rising consumer apprehension regarding the negative health effects associated with high animal protein diets, such as increased intake of saturated fatty acids. With companies like Beyond Meat and Impossible Foods Inc., the availability of alternative protein products is expanding to a greater number of restaurants and grocery stores, resulting in increased demand. These companies are leveraging their scale to enhance distribution and forming collaborations with retailers to drive promotions and marketing efforts.
In 2023, the retail segment accounted for the largest share of revenue in the global meat substitute market.
