Vegan food refers to meals and ingredients that do not contain any animal products or by-products. Vegans avoid not only meat, poultry, and fish but also dairy products, eggs, honey, and other substances derived from animals. Vegan diets focus on plant-based foods such as fruits, vegetables, grains, nuts, seeds, and legumes. The reasons people choose veganism vary and can include health concerns, ethical considerations regarding animal rights and welfare, and environmental reasons.
The global vegan food market expansion is bolstered by the growing awareness regarding animal health as well as cruelty in the food industry, which has led to a significant shift towards plant-based food products. The growing popularity of the vegan diet and the emerging trend of following veganism have resulted in an accelerated demand for vegan food. For instance, the World Animal Organisation estimates that nearly 88 million individuals in the world are vegans.

The rising shift towards whole foods
There is a notable shift towards plant-based foods that utilise basic, whole-food ingredients like mushrooms, walnuts, tempeh, and legumes. This trend is driven by consumers' wariness of processed foods and a desire for natural, transparently sourced options.
Innovation in Plant-Based Seafood
Vegan seafood is poised for significant growth in upcoming years, with innovations in plant-based versions of shrimp, crab, fish, and lobster increasing. Advancements in technology are helping to overcome challenges related to mimicking the textures of these products, with a variety of brands introducing innovative options.
Increasing Promotion of Vegan Lifestyle on Social Media
High-profile endorsements from celebrities have helped push the vegan movement into the mainstream. Influential figures in entertainment, sports, and music have backed vegan products and initiatives, contributing to the broader acceptance of plant-based diets.
Emphasis on Sustainability and Regenerative Agriculture
Sustainability remains a critical trend, with a focus on water conservation, stewardship in food production, and the use of entire food parts to reduce waste. Regenerative agriculture is also gaining attention for its potential to improve soil health and support environmental sustainability.
The market is primarily being driven by the growing preference for plant-based foods that focus on basic, whole ingredients like mushrooms, walnuts, tempeh, and legumes. This movement is fuelled by a consumer drive towards more natural and transparently sourced options, moving away from processed foods. Mushrooms, recognised for their versatility and nutritional value, are emerging as a key ingredient across various food and beverage sectors.
In the West, a rising proportion of the population has stopped consuming meat, and as a result is embracing alternative food, such as vegan products. Further, the rising awareness of the benefits of consuming these products has played a key role in the adoption of vegan food, thereby facilitating the market growth. In the coming years, the rising adoption of a vegan diet in emerging regions and product diversification are expected to propel the growth of the vegan food market forward.

The increasing demand for vegan dairy products and meat substitutes due to health concerns and animal welfare is expected to propel the vegan food market
Dairy alternatives, including products like plant-based milk, cheese, and yoghurt, have seen substantial growth, driven by consumer demand for lactose-free options and concerns about the dairy sector’s environmental impact. Soy and almond milk have been leaders in this category, with almond milk experiencing rapid popularity growth due to its lower calorie content and the perception of being a healthier option.
Meat substitutes have also become increasingly popular, especially in developed regions such as North America and Europe, where health consciousness and ethical concerns regarding animal welfare have led to a surge in vegan populations.
