Analyst Opinion

The Meat Market in Cambodia is facing minimal growth due to factors such as low consumer awareness about the benefits of meat consumption, limited access to digital technologies, and traditional preferences for locally-sourced meat. Despite this, the Fresh Meat and Processed Meat sub-markets are expected to experience moderate growth due to the increasing demand for protein-rich foods and the development of new meat products. However, the Meat Substitutes sub-market is projected to grow at a slower pace due to challenges in sourcing quality ingredients and limited distribution channels.

Customer preferences:
As consumers in Cambodia become more health-conscious, there is a growing trend towards plant-based diets and alternative protein sources in the Meat Market within The Food market. This shift is influenced by cultural preferences for vegetarianism and Buddhism, as well as concerns about sustainability and animal welfare. Additionally, with a younger and more digitally savvy population, there is a growing demand for online grocery shopping and delivery services, as well as virtual cooking and nutrition classes. This reflects a larger trend towards convenience and personalized wellness options among consumers.
