Concerns about the health impact of nitrates found in processed red meat have pushed many manufacturers to try and reduce the nitrate content in their products. A study in 2022 by the French Agency for Food, Environmental and Occupational Health & Safety (Anses) confirmed that there was an associated increased risk of developing colorectal cancers if exposed to nitrates, including those found in charcuterie.
Frozen processed meat products have seen sharp price rises in 2022 which has put further pressure on volume sales, with consumers suffering from a general increase in the cost of living. These price rises are partly due to the effects of Russia’s war in Ukraine combined with rising production costs all of which has made the situation very difficult for meat farmers.
Meat and seafood substitutes continues to see dynamic growth in 2022 in retail volume terms, with demand from French consumers continuing to rise at a rapid pace. Nonetheless, the pace of growth is showing signs of slowing compared to the highs seen in recent years, although this is largely due to growth coming from a higher base.
