The U.S. retail market for plant-based foods, 2018-2021
Event description
This webinar will provide an overview of newly-released sales data and insights for plant-based foods in the U.S. retail market, using custom plant-based categories created by GFI and the Plant Based Foods Association by refining standard SPINS categories.
The webinar will cover:
- Category insights for overall plant-based foods, plant-based meat, eggs, milk, other dairy, meals, baked goods, and more, further segmented by protein source, format, and product type.
- Consumer demographic information, as well as purchase dynamics for plant-based food categories, including household penetration, repeat rates, and dollar sales per trip and per buyer.
- Plant-based vs. animal-based category sales and growth.
- Perspectives on the growth of plant-based foods during Covid-19 and what it means for the future of plant-based performance at retail.
Note: Due to the custom nature of these categories, the presented data will not align with standard SPINS categories.
