Market Overview

Cultured meat, also known as cultivated meat, is animal meat that is produced by cultivating animal cells in laboratory conditions. Different kinds of techniques including cell culture media, scaffold-based techniques, and others are used to grow cultured meat. In cultured meat, conventional meat's nutritional and sensory profiles are replicated and are grown by harvesting cells from animal tissues in the culture media for proliferation and growth.

According to Ken Research Analysis, the Global Cultured Meat Market is expected to record a positive CAGR of ~25% during the forecast period (2022-2030) and is expected to reach nearly US$ 2,000 million by 2030, owing to the increasing number of investments for research and development of cultured meat along with rising inclination towards environmental sustainability and animal welfare.

Growing consumers’ preference for nutritional diets along with increasing innovation in cellular techniques to produce cultured meat are anticipated to propel the growth of the Global Cultured Meat Market during the forecast period.

The rising number of investments by big giants like Cargill, Tyson, and others in cultured meat and the increased focus of manufacturers on producing slaughter-free meat to fulfill consumers’ demand for animal protein is likely to propel the growth of the Global Cultured Meat Market.

The global Cultured Meat Market faces challenges due to the high production cost and consumer skepticism towards lab-based meat products.

The production cost for cultured meat is comparatively higher than that of conventional meat as cultured meat requires a growth medium to stimulate cell growth, which adds to the cost of the production and may hinder the growth of the market. However, intensive research and development are going on to reduce the cost of production. In addition, cultured meat is a new concept in the market, and skepticism of consumers toward lab-based meat products is also expected to restrict the growth of the market.

The COVID-19 pandemic positively impacted the Cultured Meat Market owing to the increased demand for nutritional products including meat products. Moreover, consumers are shifting towards nutritional diets or protein-rich diets to lead a healthier lifestyle, which is expected to increase the demand for animal products including cultured meat. Lab-based meat gained more attraction among consumers during the pandemic to scale up the healthy diet, which has benefitted the growth of the Global Cultured Meat Market.
