Additionally, the plant-based movement, popularized by campaigns such as Meatless Monday, has further integrated soy milk into everyday diets. Major cities like Los Angeles and New York have seen a surge in vegan cafes and restaurants offering soy milk as a standard option, reflecting the growing demand. Retail innovation, including single-serve soy milk cartons and shelf-stable varieties, has catered to urban and health-conscious consumers, further expanding its market share. The prevalence of soy milk has also been bolstered by the influence of social media and celebrity endorsements that promote plant-based lifestyles.
