Vegan market grows in Brazil

What is the difference between vegetarianism and veganism?

You've certainly heard about veganism, but the movement is still the target of criticism, doubts and prejudice – generally due to lack of knowledge. The differences between vegetarianism and veganism go far beyond diet, and the Curto will explain it to you in detail. Come with us!

Without a doubt, the growth in the number of Brazilians who want avoid meat and animal products have caused socioeconomic impacts with the emergence of specialized markets for this public. Establishments were created that sell products ranging from food to clothing, including cosmetics, hygiene products, pharmaceuticals and various items produced without any ingredients of animal origin.

For food market, the forecast is for constant growth and opportunities. According to research by SkyQuest, the sector is expected to exceed US$34 billion by 2028 due to the increase in the vegan population and, consequently, demand. In South America alone, the growth estimate should be even higher, with 11,45% expected by 2028.
