The global vegan food market is accelerating rapidly due to the growing consciousness of consumers about the health benefits, environmental sustainability issues, and animal welfare issues associated with vegan food. In addition, there has been a notable interest in plant-based diets. The recent emphasis on clean-label products has influenced consumers in their growing interest in knowing what they are consuming. Notably, innovations in food technology, including precision fermentation and 3D printing, are enabling more plant-based foods to mimic the taste and texture of animal products. Organizations are implementing different strategies to benefit from the increasing demand for Vegan Foods. They are constantly making investments in research and development, innovations, etc.

For example, on May 6, 2024, Impossible Foods kicked off its major marketing campaign featuring a new brand rebranded to concentrate on its products and added to its line, with items like chicken tenders and hot dogs. With this strategic move, the company is trying to reach the flexitarian market (those who occasionally, or intermittently, eat meat). Further, companies are also seeing an uptick in collaborations between well-known brands and startup plant-based brands. For instance, on March 6, 2024, Oscar Mayer collaborated with The NotCo company via Kraft Heinz to create and sell plant-based hot dogs and sausages to appeal to vegan and flexitarian consumers.

Environmental rules and regulations for Vegan Foods worldwide

There are various regulations governing Vegan foods reflecting diverse priorities and stages of development.

Japan

The Japanese government has established a policy to focus on developing alternative meat-related food techniques to improve the global environment, food problems, and national health.

Article 2-2 of the Japanese Agricultural Standards Act (JAS Act) states, "Agricultural products, forest products, animal products, and fisheries products and goods manufactured or processed as raw materials or ingredients (excluding those listed in the preceding item) are prescribed by the Cabinet Order"

On February 24, 2022, "Textured Soy Protein Products" was established in the JAS 0019 and added to the Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries list, indicating certification technology standards and inspection methods, which defined the requirements for "soy meat products" and "prepared soy meat products."

According to Food Labelling Standards, the label on retail processed foods must contain “general names,” and general names cannot refer to ingredients not included in processed foods.

United States

In the United States, alternative foods have entered the major markets due to the rising animal welfare debates and positive perceptions of vegetables, depicting the higher market growth in the country.

In January 2020, 12 states passed laws restricting the use of terms such as “meat” in cultured meat products, but a clear labelling system created by FSIS has been reported to prohibit state laws restricting the term “meat” for cultured meat.

Article 402 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C) considers food additives to be poor if they contain unsafe food additives within the meaning of Article 409 of the Act and additives are considered poor even if they are manufactured, packaged, or stored under unhealthy conditions.

On May 31, 2021, Texas approved a bill banning companies producing food from insect, plant, or cell culture, such as alternative meat and cell culture, from using the term "meat" in product labels in the future.

European Union

In Europe, plant-based alternative foods, plant-based meat, cultured meat, and milk products have been listed according to the naming regulations.

The product may be subjected to a safety assessment by EFSA to determine its impact on human health in accordance with section 11 of NFR 23.

According to the EU's Novel Foods Regulation, applications for approval of cultured meat are made through an e-submission system operated by the European Commission and the minimum requirements for approval consist of information on the product ID, production processing, configuration data and specifications, proposed uses, and expected product intake.

India

In India, Food quality and hygiene are monitored by the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI), which comes under the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare. It has further listed down healthcare regulations and compliances over the years to ensure food safety in India.

According to the report, the impact of Vegan Foods has been identified to be high for the Asia-Pacific area. Some of how this impact has been felt include:

The vegan food sector in the Asia-Pacific (APAC) markets is booming because more people are becoming health-conscious. Many Asian cuisines by default are plant-based; therefore, moving to vegan diets should be easy and appealing. Moreover, plant-based products are also now available, such as plant-based dim sum and regional specialties, which meet local palates. With the rise of e-commerce platforms, many Asian countries have also benefited from an array of vegan products, helping to create a better consumer experience. Organizations in the Region are trying various approaches to advancing plant-based innovation through things such as mergers, acquisitions, partnerships, etc. In addition, ProVeg Asia-Pacific has been very supportive of plant-based innovation through initiatives such as the Food Innovation Challenge, encouraging students across 16 countries to identify sustainable, healthy vegan food solutions.
