The rise of flexitarian and vegan diets, coupled with concerns over animal welfare and environmental impact, are significant factors driving this growth. Industry stakeholders are responding by expanding their product offerings and investing in innovative plant-based technologies, positioning themselves for a competitive edge in the evolving market.
