With a spectacular CAGR of 24% from 2023 to 2033, FMI predicts that the global plant-based pork market could rocket to a value of US$ 1.88 billion in 2023. Additionally, by the year 2033, this industry is projected to reach a staggering US$ 16.72 billion.

The veganism movement is being fueled by the growing environmental and animal rights consciousness among a sizeable portion of the population. People are now looking for meat substitutes as a result of this trend. Many people love pork, thus it’s a popular food.

The negative impacts of pork slaughter have led to the introduction of innovative products as alternatives. Pork made from plants is one such substitute. As a result, the market is likely to have plenty of room to develop as the use of plant-based meats as an alternative grows in popularity.

The market is anticipated to be driven by growing consumer interest in plant-based diets and increased awareness of animal rights owing to numerous welfare groups. Vegan diets, in which people live vegetarian lifestyles free of animal-based foods, increasingly include plant-based meat as an essential component.

Veganism is becoming more popular among consumers for ethical and health reasons, while vegetarianism is becoming increasingly popular among customers who want to avoid animal cruelty and consume sustainable food and beverage options.

Increasing mushroom production and consumption, including that of oyster and button mushrooms, among others, is expected to also fuel market expansion in the years to come. The market is projected to rise during the projected period as a result of rising demand for goods made of plant-based ingredients such as tofu, soy, seitan, jackfruit, and others.

Overindulging in pork can result in diet-related disorders such as obesity, type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and several other malignancies. On the other hand, eating meat made from plants doesn’t result in these illnesses. Moreover, they support stronger immunity. Consumer attention is being drawn to a variety of significant considerations, including the nutritional advantages of plant-based pork and its safety when compared to traditional hog meat.

Pork products made from plants are largely taking the place of traditionally processed pork items like burgers and sausages. Pork made from plants has lower amounts of saturated fat, cholesterol, and calories than meat made from animals. They frequently have greater concentrations of micronutrients like calcium, zinc, and press.

North America led the market and generated the leading revenue share in 2022, and it is anticipated that it could continue to do so for the duration of the forecast period. Increased usage of vegetarian meat products and growing consumer awareness of the dangers of ingesting tainted meat products are both credited with driving market growth in this region. In reaction to the higher demand for plant-based foods, including plant-based meat, consumer perceptions of food sustainability and safety are likely to change even further.
