In Brazil, the Convenience Food Market within The Food market is experiencing a rise in demand for healthier and more sustainable options. This trend is influenced by the growing awareness of the impact of food choices on personal health and the environment. Additionally, there has been a shift towards plant-based and locally sourced convenience foods, driven by cultural preferences and demographic shifts towards more health-conscious and environmentally conscious consumers. This has led to the emergence of new brands and products that cater to these preferences and lifestyles.
