Meat Extracts Market Drivers and Opportunities

Rising Demand for Meat Extracts as Flavor Enhancers to Favor Market

Over the past few years, meat production and consumption have increased significantly with the rise in global population, increase in the number of mid-income families, and rising demand for high-protein, affordable food. Poultry meat is one of the major drivers of the growth of the meat industry as it is an affordable source of protein, and it is considered healthier than other meats such as beef and pork. According to the Organization of Economic Co-operation and Development and the Food and Agriculture Organization statistics, global meat production is expected to reach 373 million tons by 2030. Moreover, the per capita meat consumption across the globe is expected to reach 43.7 kg rwt (expressed in retail weight).
