Moving to the next level in plant based protein.
Cleaning up label, strengthening sustainability & delivering more diverse offerings.
Europe’s plant-based food sales up 22% since 2020 as category hits €5.7 billion market value. Food Matters Live 3/04/23
According to a new GFI report, within the plant-based meat category, unit sales grew by 21% between 2020 and 2022, in comparison to traditional meat unit sales which went down by 8% during the same period.
Investment into plant-based meat startups is ramping up, while innovation is accelerating among companies as manufacturers focus on addressing consumers’ needs.
Today’s plant-based protein has moved to the next level, and its not as simple as just offering a product out in the market.
Formulating plant based products is a bumpy road as consumers want improved texture and taste with less additives and more variety.
Sustainability is a crucial component underpinning the plant-based trend.
Apart from improved taste, consumers are increasingly asking for clean label credentials, traceability of the product supply chain, nutrition & environmental impact of the products they consume.
