What have been the primary factors driving the lettuce seeds market’s growth?
The growing number of vegan consumers is expected to propel the growth of the lettuce seeds market going forward. Vegan consumers are individuals who abstain from all animal products, including food, clothing, and cosmetics, for ethical, health, or environmental reasons. The growing number of vegan consumers is driven by health consciousness, environmental concerns, ethical animal treatment, and increased plant-based options. Lettuce seeds are primarily grown to produce fresh lettuce, a common ingredient in vegan salads, wraps, and sandwiches. The seeds can also be pressed to extract lettuce seed oil used in vegan cooking or dressings. Additionally, lettuce seeds are sometimes used in teas or supplements for nutritional benefits, including antioxidants and essential fatty acids. For instance, in April 2024, according to the Finder.com Comparison UK Ltd, a UK-based financial comparison company, around 6.4% of UK adults, or approximately 3.4 million people, plan to follow a vegan diet in 2025, including 2.1% who are currently vegan, while 4.3% (2.3 million) intend to switch from a non-vegan to a vegan diet, and 11% (6.1 million), including 5% currently vegetarian, are planning to adopt a vegetarian diet. Therefore, the growing number of vegan consumers is driving the growth of the lettuce seeds market.
