A distinct proportion of the growth in sales of meat substitute products is being principally influenced by the popular flexitarian movement, wherein consumers are seeking to reduce their meat consumption. They are doing so by substituting some, but not all, of the meat and dairy in their weekly diet for plant-based alternatives. As many as 22 million UK citizens classify themselves as flexitarians, and regard it as a permanent lifestyle choice, notably popular among millennials. Furthermore, factors such as concerns regarding animal welfare, personal health, environmental interests, budget restraints, or merely disliking the taste of meat/fish have augmented the demand for meat substitute food products in Europe. In addition, the number of people adopting veganism has surpassed double-digit growth in the last decade, as a result of which the demand for ethical, affordable, and appetizing meat alternatives has increased drastically. These Europe meat substitute market trends have created a positive impact on the market growth. Moreover, as a response to the changing eating patterns and rise in consumer demand for meat substitutes across Europe, companies are investing heavily in further promoting and driving development of new and enticing meat-free products in the vegetarian category. The European region is rapidly capitalizing on this change in consumer interest by innovating meat-free products and accounting for approximately 40% of the global sales. Essentially, 70% of the market launches for new meat substitute products are European based.

Furthermore, meat alternative manufacturers witnessed an upsurge in the demand for plant-based products as a result of shortage of meat products in retail stores as well as limit on meat-based items purchased per customer. Furthermore, as a consequence of positive consumer demand, numerous start-ups and established food companies have launched an array of plant-based meat, seafood, and dairy substitutes, which exhibit new flavors, textures, and improved nutritional profile. COVID-19 is expected to further boost the demand for meat substitutes a much higher rate. An increase in awareness among people to strengthen their immune system to prevent themselves from being infected easily is compelling them to maintain a healthy lifestyle and proper diet.
