Mordor Intelligence has published a new report on the dairy products market, offering a comprehensive analysis of trends, growth drivers, and future projections.
-- Dairy Products Market Overview
The dairy products market size is projected to grow from USD 0.97 trillion in 2025 to USD 1.24 trillion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 4.94%. Growth is driven by rising demand for functional and fortified nutrition, supportive regulations for probiotics, and government initiatives to strengthen dairy production. Premium yogurt, high-protein milk, whey ingredients, and lactose-free products are gaining traction among health-conscious consumers. However, raw milk price volatility and increasing competition from plant-based alternatives remain key challenges. To sustain margins, processors are investing in cold-chain upgrades and vertical integration, while a moderately fragmented competitive landscape continues to shape market dynamics.
Dairy Products Market Key Trends
Health-Driven Consumption Trends
Rising health awareness, especially in developed markets, is reshaping dairy demand. Consumers increasingly prefer natural, organic, low-sugar, and high-protein products, positioning yogurt as the fastest-growing segment due to digestive and wellness benefits.
Yogurt As a Growth Engine
Yogurt consumption continues to accelerate as it aligns with weight management and functional nutrition trends. Its versatility across meals and snacking occasions further strengthens its role within the evolving dairy portfolio.
Retail Channel Dominance And Shift
Supermarkets and hypermarkets remain the leading sales channels, particularly in Europe, due to their convenience, extensive product variety, and promotional offerings. Meanwhile, online retail is gaining traction in Asia-Pacific through free delivery, easy returns, and digital incentives.
Expansion of Food Service Demand
Dairy usage in restaurants, cafés, and on-trade settings is rising alongside increased dining out and food delivery. With nearly half of consumers eating out and growing reliance on food service, on-trade dairy sales are projected to grow strongly through 2025.
