Cultured Meat Market size is expected to cross USD 20 billion by 2032, according to a new research report by Global Market Insights Inc.
The study claims that the increasing popularity of cruelty-free alternatives to animal-based meat products will enhance the adoption rate of clean meat over the next ten years. According to a survey conducted and commissioned by OpinionWay and the Goof Food Institute (GFI) on 4096 participants from Germany, France, Italy, and Spain, over 60% of the residents from all four nations think that substitutes for conventional animal agriculture need to be introduced.
An increasing number of companies focusing on capitalizing on this trend and manufacturing products that can indeed compete with traditional meat on taste and price to provide sustainable options will aid the expansion of the cultivated meat market worldwide. For instance, in May 2021, Memphis Meats rebranded itself as Upside Foods and introduced its first consumer product, cultured chicken. Furthermore, the proliferation of e-commerce as a potential sales channel for food products will create a robust growth outlook for the industry in the foreseeable future.
Based on the source, the cultured meat market share from seafood segment is anticipated to amass a valuation of USD 6.5 billion by 2032, attributed to its rich nutritional composition and delicious taste. In addition, an increased emphasis on advancing aquaculture sustainability and reducing fishing pressure on oceans will augment the demand for cultivated seafood.

Besides, the ongoing replacement of traditional meat and meat products with eco-friendly and cruelty-free alternatives will positively influence the industry dynamics.
