With 23% of UK consumers identifying as flexitarian2 (primarily eating plant-based with occasional inclusion of meat), and 40% of British consumers demanding plant-based options3, the market for plant-based alternatives continues to grow. And with conversations about the planet only intensifying, it doesn’t stop there. Consumers are also looking for sustainable alternatives to mainstream foods.
