The success of the Danish organic model through the example of the plant based trend

Denmark is positioning itself at the forefront of the plant-based food agenda. With new resources, policies, and collaborative partnerships, Denmark aims to develop competitive advantages for its food companies in the plant-based sector. The agricultural sector has increased production of high-quality protein-rich plant crops, while Denmark’s strengths in organic production and clean label make it a potential leader in the plant-based food market. Other initiatives, such as a new public fund, a state-controlled climate label, and the release of new dietary guidelines promoting a healthy and climate-friendly diet, further contribute to the growth of the plant based food market in Denmark. Hospital kitchens and public procurement agreements are also driving the adoption of organic and plant-based meals, resulting in reduced costs, lower food waste, and improved quality.
