Red meat sales keep declining in America. But, plant-based alternatives to meat keep getting hotter and hotter. So, if you’re selling frozen food online, make sure to include beef alternatives!

Check out my previous article on why frozen food is a hot choice to sell online. 

Vegans on the Rise

Many more people are choosing to go vegan.

• 6% of America’s population is vegan, a sharp increase from 1% in 2014.
• Vegans don’t eat any food made from animals. They also reject any food that animals produce.
• The majority of vegans are between the ages of 18 and 35.
  • This generation also purchases the most food online.

Why Frozen Beef Alternatives?

Vegans have plenty of choices for protein. But sometimes, they want a plant-based option that looks and tastes like beef, without the cruelty.

So, they turn to popular frozen meat alternatives.

• Meat alternative sales worldwide grew 42 percent from 2010 to 2016 (Reuters).
• Globally, meat alternatives reached over $4 billion USD in sales as of 2016.
  • And Business Insider predicts that this segment will be worth over $5.2 billion by 2020.

Vegans appreciate the convenience of these hot-selling frozen beef alternatives. And you’ll appreciate their popularity when you sell food online! Read on for six popular choices to sell from reliable vegan brands.
