Vegan Egg Market - Global Industry Size, Share, Trends, Opportunity, and Forecast, 2018-2028F

Global vegan egg market is expected to be driven by rising awareness about food-borne illnesses

The Global vegan egg market is expected to be driven by rising awareness about food-borne illnesses. Furthermore, growing rising demand from an expanding vegan population is expected to fuel the growth of the vegan egg market.

One of the primary factors driving the market growth is the fact that many people are unable to eat eggs due to religious reasons, but they crave the taste. They can satisfy their taste buds by eating scrambled eggs or vegetarian omelets (no animal torture or flesh involved). For the same reason, many people turn to vegetarian eggs. Furthermore, the demand for vegan egg substitutes is driven by a number of factors, some of which are more important to consumers and others of which are more important to food manufacturers.

However, ingredients made from plants have less of an environmental impact. Eat Just claims that compared to 'traditional animal sources,' its vegan liquid eggs consume 98 percent less water, 86 percent less land, and have a 93 percent lower carbon footprint. According to Simply Eggless, a different vegan egg manufacturer, their lupin bean-based eggs use 95% less water and have a 90% lower carbon footprint than their animal-based counterparts.

Rising Occurrence of Chronic Lifestyle Diseases Drive the Vegan Egg Sales

The vegan egg industry is also progressing due to growing public awareness of a variety of food-borne illnesses that are communicable, such as the salmonella bacterium, which is prevalent in chicken and is frequently transferred to eggs. A study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association looked into whether consuming dietary cholesterol from eggs increased the risk of cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality. The eating of whole eggs is related with a higher risk of cardiovascular disease, cancer, and all-cause death, according to another sizable prospective study. Each additional 300 mg of dietary cholesterol consumed each day was linked to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease by 16%, an increased risk of all-cause mortality by 19%, and an increased risk of cancer mortality by 24%. In contrast to chicken eggs, which include 186 mg of cholesterol per whole egg, vegan eggs are normally cholesterol-free. People prefer vegan eggs in their day-to-day life in order to reduce their cholesterol intake, which is a significant factor driving the market for vegan egg.

Growing Consumer Preference for Vegan Food Aids the Market Expansion.

The growing demand for vegan processed foods is propelling the vegan egg market forward. Owing to that, rising allergenicity, increased environmental sustainability awareness, and the trend of consumers toward vegan diets are all factors driving the market growth. As more people are switching to plant-based diets, a growing number of companies are developing egg substitutes. For instance, in 2021, the American plant-based company Crafty Counter introduced 'Wundereggs,' ready-to-eat vegan boiled eggs that are cholesterol-free and have approximately the same amount of saturated fat as a normal egg.. Meanwhile, YO-Egg, an Israeli startup, has developed hyper-realistic plant-based fried eggs. JUST Egg is also a recognized and popular player in vegan liquid egg alternatives. Thus, increasing demand for vegan products and consumer start shifting from poultry products in favor of plant-based alternatives, such as vegan eggs, these trends have contributed to the market expansion during the forecast period..

Despite the fact that lockdowns and shelter-at-home measures have had little impact on the market, sales are expected to increase throughout the assessment period as the vegan population grows.

As the demand for plant-based foods grows, the company began investing in order to expand the business and strengthen their market positioning. As a result of this, vegan eggs will also see growth in the market. In order to fulfil the growing demand, major market players are focusing on developing new products and expanding their product lines.

Zero Egg has invested more thanUSD6 million ahead of 2022 to capitalize on this trend, hiring nine full-time team members in the United States, including key roles in marketing, communications, culinary, operations, and sales. Zero Egg has replaced over a million ordinary eggs in less than a year and is on track to replace more than 1.5 billion in five years, shattering the massive egg industry.
