Fans of veganism <strong>avoid meat consumption<\/strong>, and they exclude all its dairy, animal derivatives and products from their diet. This movement first appeared in early 1980\u0384s as an expression of vegan hippies\u2019 and punks\u2019 <strong>political activism for animal rights<\/strong>. Sometimes their attitude had violent extensions, such as throwing paint and objects against people who wore furs, etc.<br \/>\n<!--more--><br \/>\nAccording to Guardian, <strong>main reasons<\/strong> for this unpredictable rise of veganism are: \u00a0the increased awareness about brutal treatment of livestock and about the climate change and the possibility of improving health through nutrition.<br \/>\nIt is also evident that the role of <strong>Internet <\/strong>and Social Media has been <img loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-2261 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dkmarketing.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/xvegan-food-pyramid-3.jpg.pagespeed.ic_.os_lZQYtYw.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"285\" height=\"192\" \/>essential for the growth of vegan foods\u2019 consumption. Many consumers <strong>search the Web<\/strong>, in order to be informed about: where and how exactly their preferable food is produced, the benefits of eating more vegetables, the effects of meat consumption and animal derivatives etc. For instance, the International Health Organization has linked processed meats (bacon, ham and so on) to cancer.<br \/>\nFurthermore, many <strong>relevant documentaries<\/strong> (such as Cowspiracy, &#8220;What The Health!,&#8221; Fork Over Knives), have informed viewers about; conditions in slaughterhouses and farms, the gradual destruction of the environment caused by industrialized livestock farming, vegetarianism etc. This has led to the augmentation of vegans\u2019 population around the world.\u00a0 Finally there is also a percentage of consumers that \u201cfollows\u201d veganism simply because it is a <strong>diet-trend<\/strong>!<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-2264 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dkmarketing.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/532423.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"216\" height=\"241\" \/>As for <strong>countries around the world<\/strong>, over the past three years there has been an increase of up to 600% in a segment of US population that is characterized as a vegan (GlobalData research), while countries such as Australia, Israel, Canada and Austria have shown an impressive boost of vegans\u2019 percentage from 2004 to 2018. In the United Kingdom, the percentage has raised by 350%, compared to a decade ago. In addition, countries such as China, entire companies like Google, many celebrities and athletes are proud supporters of the vegetarian movement!<br \/>\n<strong>This shift in eating habits worldwide has<\/strong> <strong>an impact on the world market<\/strong>. Companies have realized the profit margins created by these diet-trends are huge, so they have been adjusting their strategies to take advantage of it!<br \/>\nFor instance, Walmart which is the largest <strong>retailer <\/strong>in the world is now purchasing more vegetarian products from wholesalers than in the past, while in Britain <strong>firms <\/strong>such as Tesco and Marks &amp; Spencer have already launched new categories of vegan products.<br \/>\nAs for <strong>restaurant companies<\/strong> such as Pizza Hut and Wagamama, they have already launched a vegan menu while many start-up companies are somehow involved in veganism business.
