What’s Trending in the Meat & Poultry Sector for 2025?

HALAL MARKET GROWTH

Halal meat is central to global trade, with rising imports in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Indonesia fueled by growing demand and expanding trade. As the halal market is set to exceed $5.81 trillion by 2032, innovations in certification and traceability are key. Emerging players like Brazil, Ukraine, and Turkey offer suppliers access to vital markets. Gulfood 2025 will spotlight these trends, placing your business at the heart of halal sector growth.

ALTERNATIVE PROTEIN INNOVATION

Alternative proteins are reshaping the industry as demand grows for sustainable, plant-based, and lab-grown options. With the plant-based protein market expanding at 12.4% annually and breakthroughs in fermentation, the potential is vast. Gulfood 2025 will feature innovators from the US, Brazil, and Japan, driving these changes and redefining food production.

DIGITALISATION & TRACEBILITY SURGE

Technology is reshaping meat production and distribution. Advanced traceability systems are helping brands meet growing demand for transparency and food safety.

READY-TO-EAT EXPANSION

Ready-to-eat (RTE) meals are booming as convenience drives consumer choices. The UAE imports 96% of its RTE food from India, China, and the EU, with rising demand in the US, Nigeria, and Kenya. From gluten-free to halal-certified options, the sector is diversifying rapidly. Gulfood 2025 connects you with the suppliers shaping this global growth.

FROZEN FOOD BOOM

The frozen food sector is booming, with the Middle East and Africa driving 7% of global launches last year. Rising demand for frozen meat, seafood, and ready-to-cook meals is fueling innovation from China, Norway, and Brazil. Gulfood 2025 is your gateway to this growing market.
