The high growth of dairy alternatives market is mainly
attributed to increasing intolerance for animal proteins, nutritional benefits
offered by plant-based dairy products, growing investments in dairy
alternatives, and increasing vegan and vegetarian population. Moreover, growing
demand for vegan products from emerging economies- Asia-pacific, Latin America,
and Middle East and Africa expected to create lucrative opportunities for
players operating in this market. However, preference for animal-based products
and growing preference for soy and gluten-free products are expected to hamper
the adoption of dairy alternatives to some extent.
Growing Investments in Dairy Alternatives Drives the Dairy
Alternatives Market
In recent years, the alternative dairy food industry has
been witnessing investments from large operators looking to capitalize on the
veganism trend and surging demand for sustainable foods. Alongside the growing
risk profile of livestock production, well-established dairy players are
increasingly under attack. This protein diversification has the potential to
transform a food company’s core business and value proposition due to its
growth, profitability, risk exposure, and ability to compete and innovate.
The growing trend of millennials adopting flexitarian and
vegan diets signals a change in purchasing habits that is a significant shift
from that of earlier generations. Companies across the food value chain, from
producers to retailers, are already investing in these opportunities. Some
companies are hedging against or preparing for the decline of demand for animal
products by investing in other companies producing alternatives. The market has
received investment or funding from several high-profile individuals, financial
investors, and companies in the past few years. There was more investment in
the alternative proteins market in the first quarter of 2020 than in all of
2019 (Source: Good Food Institute). In 2019, U.S. plant-based meat, egg, and
dairy companies received more than $747 million in investments. This is the
most capital raised in any single year in the industry’s history.
Thus, growing venture capital investments, which is
supporting the growth of plant-based dairy product companies and increasing
focus of leading dairy product manufacturers to build up a portfolio of investments
in plant-based proteins is expected to drive the growth of the global dairy
alternatives.
