Marketing Overview and Dynamics

The global vegan cheese market stood at US$ 2.7 billion in 2021. The market is projected to grow at an annual CAGR in the range of 12.6% from 2022 through 2028.

• The growing acceptance of veganism particularly among millennials has been increasing the demand for vegan products. The increasing awareness about cruelty to animals and the harmful effects on the environment resulting from dairy farming has led consumers to seek out vegan products.
• The rise in cases of lactose intolerance, and other food-related allergies in adults and children have influenced the preferences of food consumers over the last few years. According to data released by Food Intolerance Network, in 2019 around 70% of people around the globe suffered from lactose intolerance.

The inclination toward veganism and vegetarian diet among millennials is expected to boost the industry growth in the Hotel/Restaurant/Cafe (HoReCa) sector globally.

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.

Segmental Analysis

• Based on the cheese type, the mozzarella segment held the largest revenue share of over 30.0% in 2021 and is expected to maintain its lead over the forecast period.
  • Mozzarella is widely used in Italian dishes, such as pasta, pizzas, croquettes, and Caprese salad, and is available in the form of slices, cubes, shredded, and spreads. The demand for mozzarella is significantly high in countries where Italian cuisine is popular.
• Based on the source type, the cashew segment held the largest revenue share of more than 35.0% in 2021 and is expected to maintain its dominant position throughout the forecast period. Cashew-based vegan cheese contains vitamins B2 & B12 and is low in fat.
  • This makes it favorable among health-conscious consumers all over the world. Furthermore, gluten-free and cholesterol-free cashew products are gaining traction owing to their health benefits.
• Based on end-user type, the B2C segment led the global market in 2021 and accounted for a revenue share of more than 50.0%. Factors such as increased consumer disposable income levels and willingness to spend on premium products have led to a rise in the demand for plant-based products in the B2C segment. In addition, easy product availability in supermarkets and convenience stores has boosted the growth of this segment.
