The increasing preference for healthier food options is expected to propel the growth of the evaporated goat milk market going forward. Healthier food options reflect a rising consumer inclination toward foods perceived to support overall health and well-being. Evaporated goat milk is considered a healthier alternative, as it is a nutrient-rich dairy product with lower lactose content, aligning well with the growing demand for healthier dietary choices. For instance, in June 2024, according to the International Food Information Council (IFIC), a US-based non-profit organization, 54% of Americans reported following a specific diet or eating pattern over the past year. Interest in increasing protein intake rose from 59% in 2022 to 67% in 2023 and reached 71% in 2024. Additionally, around half of consumers aim to consume more fresh foods, which are widely regarded as healthier options. Therefore, the increasing preference for healthier food options is driving the evaporated goat milk market.

The expanding lactose-intolerant population is expected to propel the growth of the evaporated goat milk market going forward. Lactose intolerance is a condition in which the body is unable to fully digest lactose, a sugar present in milk and dairy products, due to a deficiency of lactase, the enzyme responsible for breaking down lactose in the small intestine. Goat milk contains smaller lipid molecules compared to cow’s milk, making it easier to digest for individuals with sensitive or weaker digestive systems, including those who are lactose intolerant. For instance, in 2023, according to a report published by World Population Review, a US-based Census Bureau world population data source, approximately 65% of the global population is lactose intolerant, with prevalence rates ranging from 70% to 100% among East Asians, 100% among Ghanaians, 100% among South Koreans, and 98% among Vietnamese populations. Therefore, the growing lactose-intolerant population is driving the growth of the evaporated goat milk market.

For example, in August 2024, Karnlea, an Ireland-based pet nutrition company, launched Goat Milk Plus, a product formulated with prebiotics, probiotics, and postbiotics to support gut health and immune function in pets.
