Description
Dairy Alternatives Market by Product (Butter, Cheese, Milk), Source (Almond, Coconut, Oat), Distribution Channel, End-Use - Global Forecast 2024-2030
The Dairy Alternatives Market size was estimated at USD 27.66 billion in 2023 and expected to reach USD 29.51 billion in 2024, at a CAGR 6.41% to reach USD 42.76 billion by 2030.
The dairy alternatives market encompasses a wide range of non-dairy products that are derived from plant-based sources and serve as substitutes for conventional dairy-based items. These products include milk, cheese, yogurt, ice cream, and other related food items made from sources such as soy, almond, coconut, oats, rice, and hemp. The primary focus is on offering consumers nutritional benefits similar to traditional dairy products while eliminating lactose and accommodating various dietary preferences such as veganism or specific allergies or intolerances. Dairy alternatives are used across multiple industries, including food & beverage manufacturing (confectionery, bakery), food service (restaurants, cafes), and retail sectors (supermarkets & grocery stores). Increasing preference for plant-based diets due to health reasons and sustainability issues associated with conventional farming practices have driven the demand for dairy-free alternatives. However, higher prices compared to conventional dairy products and cases of product recalls pose hurdles to the adoption of dairy-free alternatives. Additionally, concerns regarding nutritional adequacy and stringent regulations pertaining to the nutritional content of dairy-free products adversely affect the growth of the industry. Major companies are developing products with enhanced nutritional profiles to tackle these concerns. These products can compete with traditional dairy products in taste and health benefits. Furthermore, expanding distribution channels through online platforms has expanded the accessibility of dairy-based alternatives.
