What are the major drivers contributing to the growth of the synthetic food market?
The growing demand for alternative protein sources is expected to propel the growth of the synthetic food market going forward. Alternative protein sources are made from plants, animals, or fermentation-produced cells. The increasing demand for protein has resulted in rapid innovations devised by the food industry in categories such as alternative proteins such as lab-grown meat, plant-based meat, single-cell proteins from yeast or algae, and edible insects. Therefore, alternative protein sources and synthetic food are part of the more significant trend toward developing sustainable and healthy diets. For instance, in August 2022, according to the National Research Council Canada, a Canada-based government research organization, the need for alternative proteins in Canada, including plant-based proteins, was anticipated to expand by 14% annually by 2024 and by 2054, the overall protein demand is expected to double to 943.5 million metric tons. Therefore, the growing demand for alternative protein sources is driving the growth of the synthetic food market.
