The cultured meat market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $0.19 billion in 2023 to $0.23 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 19.9%. The growth observed in the historical period can be ascribed to the emphasis on sustainable food production practices, heightened awareness about animal welfare issues, the drive towards resource efficiency, increased demand for protein alternatives, and substantial investments and funding in these areas

The cultured meat market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $0.46 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 18.8%. Anticipated growth in the forecast period stems from the implementation of cost reduction strategies, the continuing expansion of the global population, diversification in product offerings, and deeper integration of culinary aspects. Significant trends expected during this period encompass technological advancements, increased investment and funding, a wider range of cultured meat products, and a heightened focus on environmental and ethical considerations.

The anticipated rise in meat consumption is poised to drive the growth of the meat market in the future. Meat, encompassing the flesh and other edible components of animals, particularly domesticated ones such as cattle, swine, and sheep, serves as a valuable food source. It is rich in protein and contains essential vitamins and minerals, including selenium, niacin, and vitamin B12. The global trend towards increased meat consumption is driven by its nutritional benefits. For example, reports from Sentient Media, a US-based non-profit media organization, revealed that the average American consumes 224.6 pounds of meat annually, including varieties such as cattle, pigs, broilers, and turkey. These consumption figures are expected to rise in the coming years. Additionally, an article published in February 2021 by The Culinary Institute of America, a US-based institution for food and wine education, indicated that the average adult male American consumes 75% more protein than necessary, while the average adult female American consumes 50%, with a focus on protein-rich foods such as meat, fish, poultry, eggs, and dairy. Consequently, the upward trajectory in meat consumption plays a pivotal role in propelling the growth of the meat market.

The burgeoning need for protein-rich food is poised to drive the growth trajectory of the cultured meat market in the foreseeable future. Protein-rich foods, essential for the body's growth, repair, and overall health, have garnered increased demand. Cultured meat emerges as a sustainable and efficient protein source, employing cell-based technology to cultivate meat, eliminating the reliance on traditional livestock farming. For example, as indicated by a report from the government of Canada in August 2022, the global demand for total protein is forecasted to surge to 943.5 million metric tons by 2054. Consequently, this escalating appetite for protein-rich food is a significant driving force behind the burgeoning cultured meat market.

Key players in the cultured meat market are actively innovating by introducing novel products such as cultivated fish balls to gain a competitive advantage. Cultivated fish balls are typically produced using cellular agriculture or cultured meat technology. For instance, in August 2022, Umami Bioworks, a Singapore-based cultivated seafood company, unveiled the cultivated fish ball laksa. These fish balls are crafted from cultivated fish cells and fortified with plant proteins to elevate their texture and consistency. Umami Meats specializes in creating sustainable alternatives for endangered fish species, employing a proprietary, non-GMO process that generates fish muscle, fat, and connective tissue from a single stem cell. Through their cultivation method, the company produces seafood devoid of mercury, antibiotics, microplastics, and other ocean pollutants, presenting consumers with a sustainable and healthier dietary choice.

Key players within the cultured meat market are forging strategic alliances to bolster their market presence and drive product innovation. These partnerships facilitate rapid advancements, expanded distribution channels, and knowledge sharing, fueling the creation and commercialization of sustainable and scalable cultured meat offerings. For instance, Aleph Farms, an Israel-based cellular agriculture firm, joined forces with BRF S.A., a Brazilian food processing company, in March 2021 to introduce lab-grown meat products to the Brazilian market. Through this collaboration, Aleph Farms and BRF will collaborate on developing and manufacturing cultured meat utilizing Aleph's patented BioFarm production platforms, aiming to introduce cultivated beef products in Brazil. This partnership underscores Aleph Farms' strategy to integrate into established ecosystems and expedite the expansion of cultured meat production, capitalizing on BRF's expertise and infrastructure in one of the world's largest beef markets. The collaboration aligns with BRF's 2030 Vision initiative, focusing on reducing environmental impact and showcasing its dedication to innovation and sustainability within the food industry.

In January 2022, Upside Foods, a food technology firm based in the US, completed the acquisition of Cultured Decadence for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition significantly broadens Upside Foods' offerings within cultivated meat and seafood. By integrating Cultured Decadence's exclusive technology and specialized knowledge, Upside Foods aims to expedite the creation and launch of various sustainable and ethical seafood products. This move underscores Upside's unwavering dedication to innovation within the cultivated meat industry. Cultured Decadence, a US company focused on cellular aquaculture, specializes in utilizing cell culture and tissue engineering methodologies to craft crustacean products.
