Description

The Global Condensed Or Evaporated Milk Market was valued at USD 7.5 billion in 2024 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 4.6% to reach USD 11.7 billion by 2034. The rising popularity of shelf-stable dairy products, especially in regions with limited refrigeration access, is driving this growth.

Demand stems largely from household use and the food service sector, including bakeries, cafes, and dessert outlets.

Additionally, shifting food trends have sparked renewed interest in recipes incorporating condensed milk, especially across Asia-Pacific and Latin America, fueled by the growth of convenience foods and ready-to-eat desserts. Innovations such as new flavors, low-sugar options, and plant-based or lactose-free alternatives are broadening the product's appeal. Enhanced packaging solutions and expanded online retail availability are improving access and convenience, supporting steady market expansion amid competition from fresh and non-dairy milk products. The market remains robust as modern and traditional diets evolve in both developed and emerging regions.

In 2024, sweetened condensed milk accounted for a 35.2% share, valued at USD 2.6 billion. This segment continues to thrive due to focused marketing efforts and product innovation that align with consumer preferences. While unflavored condensed milk retains significant popularity for cooking applications, flavored variants-such as those with chocolate, caramel, or vanilla-are gaining traction, especially among younger consumers seeking indulgent treats.

The canned packaging segment held a 31.5% share in 2024 and is projected to grow at a 4% CAGR, expanding its consumer reach. Although cans remain the dominant packaging choice for evaporated milk due to their durability and ability to maintain product freshness, their heavier weight and higher production costs mean growth is steady rather than rapid. Meanwhile, Tetra Pak cartons using aseptic technology are becoming more popular because they are lightweight, recyclable, and preserve milk without refrigeration, appealing to environmentally conscious consumers.

Europe Condensed or Evaporated Milk Market held a 34.3% share in 2024. Regional consumption patterns and culinary traditions heavily influence market dynamics. The European market maintains steady demand driven by the widespread use of evaporated milk in cooking and processed foods. North America represents a mature market with steady growth, largely fueled by the baking and convenience food sectors. In contrast, the Asia-Pacific region is experiencing rapid expansion, propelled by urbanization, changing eating habits, and increased demand for Western-style desserts and beverages that use these dairy products.

Additionally, partnerships with food service providers and retailers help broaden market reach.
