The dairy food market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1110.15 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.4%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be linked to factors such as the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, a growing population, increased penetration of organized retail, advancements in cold chains, heightened dietary consciousness, and a surge in product launches. Major trends expected in the forecast period encompass the adoption of Internet of Things (IoT) technology, enhanced collaboration between dairy food companies and e-commerce entities, a rising demand for clean label products, the integration of robotics and automation in the dairy industry, and an increase in partnerships and acquisitions for brand expansions.
The increasing desire for local, sustainable, and organic food production is anticipated to have a positive impact on the dairy food market in the forecast period. Organic food production, including organic dairy products, places significant emphasis on consumer health, environmental preservation, and animal welfare. Consumers are increasingly concerned about the methods used in food production and are willing to pay a premium for products perceived as healthy. In Europe, there is a high rate of import, particularly for organic fruits and vegetables, due to lower production rates compared to the consumer demand for organic produce. For example, in June 2022, the Organic Trade Association, representing over 9,500 organic businesses in the U.S., reported a 2% increase in organic sales, surpassing $63 billion between 2020 and 2021. This growing demand for organic products presents substantial opportunities for dairy producers in both developed and developing countries, driving market growth in the forecast period.
The increasing development of cold chains is expected to drive the growth of the dairy food market. Cold chains refer to a specialized supply chain system designed to control and manage temperature during the storage, transportation, and distribution of temperature-sensitive products, including perishable foods, pharmaceuticals, vaccines, and chemicals. Cold chains play a crucial role in preserving product freshness, expanding geographical reach, promoting product diversity, facilitating global trade, extending shelf life, ensuring food safety compliance, and enhancing consumer convenience. For example, according to Colliers, a Canada-based professional services and investment management company, India is projected to achieve a cold storage capacity of 40.7 million metric tons by 2023, marking an 8.2% increase since 2020. Therefore, the increasing development of cold chains is a key driver for the growth of the dairy food market in the foreseeable future.
The adoption of Internet of Things (IoT) technology is on the rise for tracking dairy products and ensuring secure product handling. IoT comprises a network of interconnected devices, vehicles, or other items that continuously exchange data, providing insights into various processes or systems. This technology is utilized to monitor the ingredients used in dairy products. Internet-connected equipment in trucks and storage coolers enables the tracking of dairy items, allowing for the tagging of environmental conditions such as temperature or location. This information is crucial for ensuring safe product handling during transportation. For example, the Chinese government has implemented the National Food Quality Safety Traceability Platform, utilizing IoT technology to enhance the quality and safety of food production supply chains.
Major companies in the dairy food market are focusing on developing clean-label products to establish a competitive advantage. Clean-label products refer to food and beverage items with transparent and minimal ingredient lists, devoid of artificial additives and preservatives, aligning with consumer preferences for simplicity and natural ingredients. As an illustration, in December 2021, PlantBaby, a Hawaii-based food and beverage company, introduced Kiki Milk, a clean-label, dairy-free milk designed to meet the nutritional needs of growing children. This certified organic milk is free from artificial ingredients and additives, providing a wholesome alternative for families seeking clean-label options. Kiki Milk is crafted with organic whole food ingredients, including oats, sprouted pumpkin seeds, hemp seeds, coconut, and Aquamin, offering essential nutrients such as omega fatty acids, plant-based calcium, and protein. Additionally, it is free from GMOs, glyphosate, heavy metals, seed oils, gums, refined sugars, natural and artificial flavors, soy, and gluten, making it suitable for kids, adults, and those with sensitive stomachs.
