Meat substitute is a food that may have a taste, texture, and appearance similar to meat but does not contain meat. Nowadays, growing awareness in the population about healthy and sustainable foods has led to a rising interest in meat substitutes across the globe. The new consumer group of flexitarians, who reduce their meat consumption in their daily diet, is growing rapidly. This change in eating pattern requires new products that fulfil consumer demands of healthy and tasty products which both replace the function of meat in a dish and contribute a similar high protein nutritional value.

The factors such as rising consumer preference towards vegetarian or vegan diet across the globe, rising health concerns with consumption of meat products, and various health benefits are driving the growth of global meat substitutes market.

Frozen meat substitutes help to maintain the nutritional value of food products and retain the flavor and texture.

However, Asia Pacific market is expected to witness rapid growth during the forecast period.
