The COVID-19 pandemic has offered some respite to the market as people around the world have taken an unprecedented interest in cooking at home. Hence, the demand for vegan food products has significantly increased during this period. For instance, the plant-based food trade in the U.S. reached USD 7.0 billion in 2020, increasing from USD 5.0 billion in 2019. This scenario is likely to keep the market prospects upbeat.

Shifting consumer food preferences and evolving trends in the food and beverage industry are driving the demand for vegan cheese across the globe. The rising cases of lactose intolerance and other food-related allergies among children and adults have changed the food preferences of consumers in recent years. According to the data provided by the Food Intolerance Network, in 2019, around 70% of the population of the world suffered from lactose intolerance.

The inclination toward veganism and vegetarian diet among millennials is expected to boost the industry growth in the Hotel/Restaurant/Café (HoReCa) sector. For instance, in Saudi Arabia, vegan restaurants were established across the region for promoting a healthy lifestyle.

In addition, the growing awareness regarding animal cruelty and global concerns over carbon footprint due to the animal-based diet has encouraged consumers to opt for plant-based products. Furthermore, apart from meat, the vegan population avoids all types of animal-derived products, including cheese, milk, cream, yogurt, and even honey, which will support the market growth.
