Government Initiatives to Promote Consumption of Meat Alternative Products Fuel South & Central America Meat Substitute Ingredients Market
Government bodies across various countries are promoting the consumption of plant-based meat owing to the rising environmental concerns and health benefits offered by these products. Additionally, the governments are actively investing in R&D and new product launches of plant-based meat products.
The Biomes Program was established to provide funding for studies using natural species found in the Amazon and Cerrado biomes, with the goal of providing inputs for the industry of alternative proteins. By comprehending the possible applications of these biomes' natural species in the industry, we can expand the chances for local producing communities to make additional income. Furthermore, national inputs will be delivered to the industry, and these species will be valued higher than deforested ones. GFI Brazil signed for seven research projects in 2022 and foresees financing six more in 2023. The Biomes Program will provide 19 projects with more than US$ 1.2 million in funding overall.
Brazil's plant-based protein market is already more developed, and it is expanding. More than 80 new products were introduced to the market in 2022, a figure that suggests the years of industry growth have improved the selection of plant-based goods available to Brazilian consumers. With the collaborative and ongoing efforts of research institutions and universities, as well as advantageous regulatory policies and government incentives, the current standard of excellence is achievable.
These measures aim to enhance public health while reducing GHG emissions significantly. Such recommendations and the influence by government agencies further boost the demand for alternative meat products. Thus, the continuous investment and support by various government bodies are expected to offer lucrative growth opportunities to the market during the forecast period.
South & Central America Meat Substitute Ingredients Market Overview
A shift in consumer lifestyle and dietary patterns in South & Central America is a major factor driving the growth of the meat substitute ingredients market. The rising population and continuous economic improvements in Brazil and Argentina aid in boosting the market share in the region. Implementing a vegetarian diet in daily life can help reduce cholesterol levels, thereby protecting consumers against several diseases, including cardiovascular diseases and cancer. According to World Bank data, Brazil was home to 8% of the world’s vegetarian population in 2020. Thus, the elevated per capita spending on meat substitute products is driving the growth of the meat substitute ingredients market in South & Central America.
The positive impact of a vegan and vegetarian diet on the environment is one of the significant reasons propelling the region's per capita spending on meat substitute products. According to an online study conducted by Mapa Veg in September 2022, Sao Paulo had a significant percentage of self-described vegetarians, vegans, and supporters in Brazil, with more than 4.2 thousand respondents. With ~2,000 inhabitants, Rio de Janeiro had the second-largest population. Thus, the demand for plant-based meat products is increasing with a rising inclination toward vegan and vegetarian diets. These factors influence the food manufacturers to invest in meat substitute products which boost the demand for meat substitute ingredients such as textured soy protein, pea protein, tofu, seitan, and tempeh.
