The Global Camel Dairy Market is projected to expand from a valuation of USD 15.56 Billion in 2025 to USD 25.87 Billion by 2031, registering a CAGR of 8.84%. This sector includes a specialized range of nutrient-rich products such as raw and pasteurized milk, fermented kefir, soft cheese, and milk powder, which are prized for their high digestibility and nutritional resemblance to human milk. Growth in this market is primarily driven by the increasing global incidence of lactose intolerance and bovine milk allergies, which encourages consumers to seek hypoallergenic alternatives with superior health profiles. Furthermore, the sustained demand for functional foods containing insulin-like proteins for diabetes management provides a lasting economic foundation, distinguishing this market from temporary dietary fads.

Largest MarketMiddle East & Africa

Despite these positive growth indicators, the industry confronts significant obstacles due to the lack of sophisticated cold-chain infrastructure in key production areas, which severely limits shelf life and export potential. Data from the Food and Agriculture Organization indicates that while Kenya achieved an annual camel milk production of approximately 1.165 million metric tonnes in 2024, a large percentage of this volume was lost to post-harvest inefficiencies. Consequently, the inability to consistently collect, process, and transport this perishable commodity from scattered herds to international retail sectors remains a critical barrier preventing broader global market expansion.

Market Driver

Government-led strategies to standardize and commercialize camel farming are fundamentally altering supply dynamics, particularly in the Middle East where state investments are shifting operations from traditional herding to high-tech industrial dairying. These initiatives aim to monetize vast indigenous herds by implementing mechanized milking, genetic improvements, and strict quality control protocols to guarantee safety and consistency. For example, the Saudi Press Agency reported in August 2025 that Sawani, a company owned by the Public Investment Fund, launched a model farm with a monthly production capacity of 500,000 liters, using advanced technology to secure supply for local and international retail. This industrial scaling is essential for overcoming the fragmentation that has historically limited the sector, as camel milk currently represents only about 0.4 percent of global milk production according to SBS News in 2025.

Concurrently, the growing use of camel milk in managing diabetes and chronic health conditions is stimulating premium product development and cross-border trade. Consumers are increasingly embracing camel dairy as a functional food due to its low glycemic index and insulin-like properties, generating strong demand in non-producing regions like East Asia. This therapeutic appeal has encouraged the creation of export-friendly value-added formats such as milk powders and infant formulas. As noted by Asia Food & Beverages in March 2024, the demand for therapeutic nutrition has risen so sharply that the major UAE brand Camelicious now exports two-thirds of its milk powder to China, demonstrating how functional health claims are justifying premium pricing and facilitating market expansion.

Market Challenge

The lack of adequate temperature-controlled logistics in primary production zones serves as a critical impediment to the commercial scaling of the global camel dairy market. Since camel herds are typically situated in remote, arid environments characterized by high temperatures, raw milk requires immediate cooling to preserve its quality and safety standards. However, the scarcity of reliable cold storage facilities and refrigerated transport networks causes a vast amount of milk to spoil rapidly before it can reach processing centers. This logistical disconnect effectively isolates rural producers from higher-value urban or international retail markets, forcing the majority of trade to remain within low-margin, informal channels where value addition is minimal.

Consequently, this infrastructure gap leads to substantial economic losses and supply inconsistencies. According to the Food and Agriculture Organization, approximately 50 percent of the total camel milk produced in Kenya during 2024 was lost as waste due to these post-harvest inefficiencies. Such extensive losses significantly reduce the volume of product available for global export, thereby preventing the industry from meeting the growing international demand for camel dairy products.

Market Trends

The market is witnessing a significant shift toward flavored and probiotic-fortified beverages, moving consumer perception from strictly medicinal use to premium lifestyle consumption. Producers are increasingly masking the naturally saline taste of camel dairy with culinary infusions to attract a broader, non-therapeutic demographic. This strategy of gourmet innovation is highlighted by the Saudi Press Agency's August 2024 report, which noted that the Public Investment Fund-owned brand Noug received the 'Superior Taste Award 2024' from the International Taste Institute for its lavender-infused camel milk and Shaqra pepper cheese, confirming the commercial viability of these value-added formulations.

At the same time, the widespread adoption of freeze-drying technology for shelf-stable powder is revolutionizing inventory management and market reach by bypassing cold-chain limitations. Unlike conventional spray drying, lyophilization preserves the integrity of heat-sensitive bioactive compounds, allowing manufacturers to stockpile large volumes during peak lactation periods without the risk of spoilage. This technological integration supports industrial-scale processing in emerging dairy hubs, enabling them to stabilize supply for global distribution. For instance, DairyNews.today reported in July 2024 that a specialized facility in the Turkestan region has produced over 200 tons of dry camel milk since opening, utilizing automated filtration and drying equipment to consistently supply export markets such as China and Hong Kong.
