Description

China Dairy Alternatives Market Summary

The China dairy alternatives market size was estimated at USD 6.00 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 19.16 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 13.8% from 2025 to 2033. The market growth is attributed to the shifting consumer preferences toward plant-based nutrition and wellness.

Increasing awareness of lactose intolerance, prevalent among a significant portion of the Asian population, has led to rising demand for dairy-free products such as soy, almond, oat, and rice milk.

Rapid urbanization in China is expected to drive market growth. In 2024, the National Bureau of Statistics reported that China's urbanization ratio-the percentage of the population living in urban areas-reached 67%. This represents an over one percentage point increase per year, sustained for the past 45 years.

Additionally, consumers are becoming more informed about their choices as disposable income rises. They are increasingly willing to spend on premium dairy alternatives that offer perceived health benefits, sustainability, and ethical sourcing. The growing influence of Western dietary habits, social media advocacy for plant-based living, and the entry of international brands into the Chinese retail market further bolsters this trend.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
