Plant-based burger patty market expects $2 billion growth by 2026: report

The market for plant-based burger patties is expected to increase by $2.13 billion by 2026, according to a recent market study.

Technavio reported Wednesday that the market will increase at a compound annual growth rate of 41.1%. The two main countries that consume plant-based burgers are the U.S. and Canada, with the U.S. expected to account for 52% of the market’s growth.

Other key countries for the plant-based burger market include China, the United Kingdom and Germany.

The study credited online grocery shopping as a key reason for the projected growth.

“Due to the movement in consumer choice from offline to online purchasing, the revenue of the offline distribution channel has been steadily dropping over the last five years,” Technavio said in a statement. “In order to increase sales through the offline channel, suppliers are growing their physical locations in national and international marketplaces.”

The study cites Amazon.com Inc., Beyond Meat Inc. and Impossible Foods Inc. as a few of the major companies in the fragmented plant-based burger market.
