Evaporated Goat Milk Market Report 2025

The evaporated goat milk market size has grown steadily in recent years. It will grow from $5.9 billion in 2024 to $6.05 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 2.6%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to a rise in health consciousness, culinary uses and recipes, alternatives to cow's milk, cultural preferences, dairy-free and vegan trends, and nutritional benefits for children.

The evaporated goat milk market size is expected to see steady growth in the next few years. It will grow to $6.91 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.4%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to functional and fortified varieties, global increase in goat milk production, rise in specialty diets, focus on local and artisanal products, government support for dairy alternatives. Major trends in the forecast period include product innovation and flavor variations, clean label and natural positioning, availability in retail channels, sustainability and ethical farming, allergen-friendly attributes, and globalization of goat milk products.

The anticipated growth of the evaporated goat milk market is driven by the increasing population of individuals with lactose intolerance. Lactose intolerance is a condition where the body is incapable of fully digesting 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's milk, with smaller lipid molecules compared to cow's milk, is easier to digest for individuals with weak digestive systems, such as those who are lactose intolerant. As of 2023, a report from the World Population Review indicates that approximately 65% of the global population is lactose intolerant, with the highest prevalence observed in East Asians (70-100%), Ghanaians (100%), South Koreans (100%), and Vietnamese (98%). Hence, the increasing lactose-intolerant population is a driving factor for the growth of the evaporated goat milk market.

The growing preference for healthier food options is anticipated to drive the expansion of the evaporated goat milk market in the coming years. Healthier food options reflect a shift in consumer choices toward foods perceived to enhance overall health and wellness. Evaporated goat milk serves as a nutritious alternative, offering lower lactose content and rich nutrients, which align with this trend. For example, in January 2023, a report by the Plant Based Foods Association, a U.S.-based food and beverage organization, highlighted that plant-based food sales saw 6.6% growth in 2022, up from 5.9% in 2021, alongside a 10% increase in average retail prices. Consequently, the rising demand for healthier food options is supporting the growth of the evaporated goat milk market.

The anticipated growth of the evaporated goat milk market is expected to be propelled by the rise in disposable income. Disposable income is the total amount of money available to an individual or household for spending and saving after tax deductions. Increasing disposable incomes typically lead to heightened demand for a variety of higher-quality and health-oriented products. This trend is likely to have a positive impact on the evaporated goat milk market, encouraging innovation, expanding the market, and enhancing consumer accessibility. For instance, in 2023, according to Trading Economics, a Japan-based economic indicator, disposable income in Japan increased from 412.82 JPY thousand ($3,014.64) in March 2022 to 463.91 JPY thousand ($3,387.76) in February 2023. Therefore, the rise in disposable income is a key driver for the evaporated goat milk market.

Leading companies in the evaporated goat milk market are concentrating on innovative products, like milk powder, to extend shelf life, enhance nutritional benefits, and meet the rising consumer demand for convenient, healthy dairy alternatives. Milk powder is made by evaporating the water content from milk, creating a fine, dry powder that retains the nutritional benefits of fresh milk. For example, in August 2024, Karnlea, an Ireland-based pet nutrition company, introduced Goat Milk Plus, a product enriched with prebiotics, probiotics, and postbiotics to support gut health and boost the immune system in pets. According to Karnlea, this new formula not only provides essential nutrients but also promotes overall health and strengthens immunity in pets.

Evaporated goat milk is a variety of milk subjected to heating to eliminate a significant portion of its water content, resulting in a concentrated, creamy milk product. In this process, fresh goat milk undergoes heating until approximately 60% of the water content is evaporated, producing a thicker, creamier texture and a more robust flavor compared to regular goat milk. It finds applications in baking confections, pouring over cereals, as a beverage, and in various recipes requiring milk.

The primary categories of evaporated goat milk are skimmed evaporated milk and whole evaporated milk. Skimmed evaporated milk is crafted by partially removing the water content from milk, and it is commonly employed in diverse food preparations such as dairy drinks, desserts, ice cream, cheese, baby foods, and dietary supplements. Major applications include its use in infant food, dairy products, bakeries, confectionery, among others. These products are made available through different distribution channels, including both online and offline platforms.
