South America Plant Protein Market - Forecasts from 2020 to 2025
South America plant protein market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 7.98% till 2025. The preference of individuals is shifting increasingly towards the plant protein-rich foods and premium protein products, which is being facilitated by the rising awareness of the health benefits they are able to provide, thus pushing the plant protein products to gain traction among the population.
