The A2 milk market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 9.13%, attaining US$4.92 billion by 2030, from US$3.18 billion in 2025.
A2 milk is a type of cow's milk that primarily contains the A2 variant of beta-casein proteins, as opposed to the A1 form found in conventional dairy milk, which includes both types. Recently, there has been a rise in the popularity of A2 casein-only cows that have been selectively bred. A2 beta-casein protein is known for its quick digestion into amino acids, which enhances overall health and increases the nutritional value of cow's milk. Additionally, it is rich in essential minerals such as calcium, phosphorus, and potassium, which are vital for maintaining healthy bones and teeth, supporting muscle strength, regulating blood pressure, and ensuring overall nutritional health. The growth of the A2 milk market is driven by several factors, including a rising number of health-conscious consumers and the gastrointestinal issues that some individuals experience when consuming regular milk. Many people who struggle with milk digestion and bloating prefer A2 milk due to its easier digestibility. Research has shown that A2 milk may lead to fewer symptoms of lactose intolerance, which is expected to further boost market growth during the forecast period. However, challenges such as limited awareness about A2 milk in developing regions, potential risks associated with its consumption, and its higher price compared to regular milk may hinder market expansion.
