According to Facts and Factors, the global cultured meat market was worth around USD 103 Million in 2020 and is expected to be worth about USD 248 Million by the end of 2026, with a CAGR of around 15.7% between 2021 and 2026.
Cultured meat is described as lab-grown meat created in a culture medium utilizing different tissue and bio-engineered techniques. In vitro meat, clean meat, and synthetic meat are all terms used to describe cultured meat. Cells from an animal are gathered and developed in an enhanced and suitable culture medium to produce cultured meat. As a result of being cultivated in an aseptic and highly regulated environment, the final meat produced is devoid of any hazardous organisms. Such lab-grown meat also offers a number of advantages over traditional meat, including being healthier and devoid of foodborne and nutrition-related disorders. Commercialization of in vitro meat production would also lower the number of animals sacrificed, as well as the amount of land, water, and energy consumed.
The growing popularity of vegetarian and vegan lifestyles is fueling the cultured meat business. Veganism has exploded in popularity in recent years, with social media playing a crucial part in this movement. As a result, non-vegetarians who have converted to veganism prefer cultured meat. Because cultured meat is generated in labs and is cell-based, it eliminates the possibility of fungal or bacterial development or illnesses spreading through the intake of cultured meat. As a result, as customers' preferences move toward clean labels and a healthy lifestyle, safer grade meat is a crucial driver driving the industry. Factory farming difficulties are thought to be solved with cultured meat. This type of meat has the potential to solve a number of environmental issues while also improving animal welfare. Consumer choice is changing toward items that are environmentally friendly and offer animal welfare, which is a significant driver driving the market over the projected period.
Future Meat Technologies secured USD 14 million in investment in October 2019 to expand its cultured meat R&D efforts and open its first cultured meat manufacturing plant. The company's activities are anticipated to commence in 2020 in Tel Aviv, with a product launch following in 2021.
