Dynamics

Increasing Dairy Allergies Among Global Consumers

Dairy allergies are one of the most common types of food allergies. People with dairy allergies may acquire mild to severe symptoms upon consumption of milk and milk products related to cows and other animals. Hives, stomach and vomiting are some of the short-term symptoms commonly seen in people with dairy allergy. Very rarely dairy allergy leads to a life-threatening reaction such as anaphylaxis.

Lactose intolerance is one of the major problems associated with dairy products. According to the National Library of Medicine March 2023, approximately 65 percent of the human population has a reduced ability to digest lactose after infancy. People with lactose intolerance may experience abdominal pain, bloating, flatulence, nausea, and diarrhoea beginning 30 minutes to 2 hours after dairy consumption.

With the increasing prevalence of dairy allergies and lactose intolerance, the demand for non-dairy products is increasing rapidly at the global level. People are actively adopting non-dairy products such as beverages, bakery products and others. Non-dairy creamer is used as a major ingredient in various end-use industries to produce multiple dairy-free products.

New Product Launches with Various Flavors

The increasing demand for non-dairy creamers is expanding the market growth with the launch of various flavoured products. For instance, in August 2022, Coffee Mate, a brand of Nestle, announced the launch of its first-ever plant-based creamers into the market. The product is available in two different flavours, including French vanilla and caramel. The product is widely accepted by non-dairy people and offers a great buttery taste with rich flavor.

Manufacturing is using exotic and natural ingredients to produce these products. For instance, in February 2023, THIS PKN, a dairy-free brand of Livestock, which is a sustainable foods company, launched its new plant-based creamers into the market. The company expanded their offering with the introduction of vegan creamer made from pecan milk. The product is available in two varieties including original and vanilla.

High Cost of the Product

The high cost of non-dairy creamers compared to dairy creamers is one of the major restraints for the market. The raw materials such as almonds, coconut and cashews are used in the production of non-dairy creamers. These raw materials are from plant-based sources and are of high cost compared to that of animal-based milk.

The high cost of raw materials directly influences the final price of the product. Intense processes are needed to derive milk and oils from these raw materials. The increased manufacturing costs also play a crucial role in the high costs of the final product compared to conventional dairy products. The high price may limit the product's reach to the price sensitive customers, hindering the market growth.
