# Vegan Deli Meats Quorn Released a New Line of Vegan Deli Meat Slices By Madison Mackay | Published 2018-01-11 | Eco Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vegan-deli-meat-slices References: [plantbasednews.org](https://www.plantbasednews.org/post/quorn-launches-new-vegan-deli-lines-consumer-demand) & [livekindly.co](https://www.livekindly.co/quorn-vegan-deli-slices/) Well-known vegetarian brand [Quorn](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/quorn-1) is looking to expand its vegan options by adding easy vegan deli meat slices to the menu. Since this company mostly offers vegetarian options, having some new fresh vegan items for sale is very exciting for the vegan community. So far this company's vegan options have all been [frozen](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/quorn-frozen-products), so these deli slices will be the brand's first refrigerated vegan product. 'Smoky Ham Free Slices' and 'Chicken Free Slices' are the two new products in the line of meatless sandwich meats. Both are five-grain fillets, completely gluten-free, low in saturated fat and high in protein. These vegan deli meat slices are available at most major UK grocery stores, and will be coming to stores in the US early 2018. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.0/10 - Popularity: 41% | Activity: 42% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Refrigerated Vegan Products:** With Quorn's new line of vegan deli meat slices, there is potential for more innovation in the refrigerated vegan food industry. - **Meatless Sandwich Meats:** The introduction of Quorn's 'Smoky Ham Free Slices' and 'Chicken Free Slices' highlights a trend towards healthier and more sustainable meat alternatives for sandwiches and other lunch foods. - **Expansion of Vegan Options:** Quorn's new vegan deli meat slices reflect a growing trend among food companies to expand their vegan product offerings and cater to the needs and preferences of the vegan community. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Vegetarian and Vegan Food:** The rise of Quorn's vegan deli meat slices points to a potential shift towards more innovative and diversified vegetarian and vegan food options. - **Health and Wellness:** As consumers become increasingly health-conscious, there is a growing market opportunity for companies offering healthy and nutritious meat alternatives like Quorn's vegan deli slices. - **Grocery Stores:** With major UK grocers already carrying Quorn's vegan deli meat slices and the product set to hit US stores shortly, there is scope for further innovation in the grocery industry as more retailers respond to the growing demand for vegan options. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Vegan-Friendly Sandwich Toppers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cured-meat-style-slices.md) - [Meat-Free Deli Proteins](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/quorn-1.md) - [Veggie-Forward Deli Slices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/plant-provisions.md) - [Versatile Vegan Ham Products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vegan-ham-spicker-type-meat-sausage.md) - [Soy Protein Luncheon Meats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luncheon-meat.md) - [Easy-to-Prepare Plant-Based Foods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/quorn-product.md) - [Shelf-Stable Vegan Salamis](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vegan-deli-meats.md) - [Vegan Luncheon Meat Products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/food-brand-anew.md) - [Pre-Flavored Tofu Slices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tofu-slices.md)
