According to The Green Revolution report, carried out by the innovation consultancy Lantern, in Spain, green flexitarian, vegetarian or vegan diets have grown by 27% in recent years and one in ten Spanish people follows one of these diets today, motivated by a concern for animals and sustainability. The organic sector has also increased its popularity for the same reasons. Spain is Europe’s largest organic farming producer and has doubled its sales in the last five years.

Increase in halal products

Another of the rising trends seen in the food industry is that of halal products; these will be given visibility in the Halal Foods space, which will occupy 400 m2 within Alimentaria Trends. The presence of products with Halal certification (allowed under Islamic law) has a good reception in the international market; Therefore, Alimentaria 2020 will also offer cooking shows and the 3rd edition of the Halal Congress.

At present, at Mercabarna (Barcelona’s wholesalers ’market), 62% of the lamb and 56% of the beef come from animals are slaughtered according to the precepts of Islam. Forecasts indicate that the halal food and beverage sector will continue to grow without interruption around the world with 1.8 billion Muslims worldwide, a figure that will reach 2.2 billion by 2030. Of these, more than 60% are currently under 30 years of age.
