Brazil Plant-Based Meat Market Trends:

Increasing Vegan Population

The trend of veganism is increasing in Brazil, and approximately 10 million Brazilians identify themselves as vegan and 40 million vegetarians as of 2023, according to a market report published in January of 2024. Additionally, there are well over 240 vegan and veggie restaurants nationwide, with causes such as Brazil's Meatless Monday movement well-backed by State governments and animal rights organizations. These numbers are indicative of Brazil's consistently growing vegan community, which is otherwise renowned for consuming large amounts of meat such as beef. Rising health awareness, coupled with increasing cardiovascular disease-related deaths, is driving demand for healthier food options like plant-based meat. This trend is shaping the Brazil plant-based meat market outlook, with growing consumer preference for nutritious, sustainable alternatives and expanding investment in plant-based protein innovation.

Growing Sustainability Concerns

Growing concerns about environmental issues such as deforestation, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and resource depletion linked to animal agriculture is driving consumers to seek more sustainable food options. For example, in July 2024, deforestation in the Brazilian Amazon grew, the first month-over-month increase since March 2023, with 666 square kilometers of forest cleared. In spite of the recent development, deforestation remains 46% below last year on a rolling 12-month basis, although severe drought and fires have exacerbated conditions. Domestic beef production in may fall by 25% by 2050 as governments and the private sector look to accelerate climate change and forest preservation measures, says a new report from Orbitas, a project of Climate Advisers. Brazil has the second-largest cattle population in the world at approximately 232 million and supplies approximately 20% of the world's beef exports, as reported by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO). The sector has expanded hugely over the past few decades but usually at the cost of significant biomes such as the Amazon Rainforest and Cerrado. With such alarming statistics, there is a change in the behavior of consumers that shows increasing demand for food systems that promote sustainability at the expense of systems that degrade critical ecosystems. Plant-based meat is considered to be a greener alternative, as it suits the values of plant-based consumers, and this is a key factor propelling the Brazil plant-based meat market growth.
