Saudi Arabia Dairy Alternatives Market Trends
The consumption of non-dairy alternatives is increasing in Saudi Arabia due to concerns for animals and sustainability, prevalence of lactose intolerance, and changing dietary habits
- Non-dairy butter is majorly consumed among all dairy alternatives across the country. The key motivations for consumers to adopt non-dairy butter are concerns for animals or sustainability and changes in dietary habits. Thus, the per capita consumption of non-dairy butter experienced an increase of 2.21% in 2022 compared to 2021.
- The growing prevalence of lactose intolerance is another reason consumers switch to dairy alternatives. For example, in Saudi Arabia, more than 30% of the population has lactose intolerance. One out of every three people in Saudi Arabia is aware of lactose intolerance disorder and its related factors.
- The per capita consumption of plant-based is expected to increase by 6.21% in 2023-2024 due to the increasing prevalence of milk allergies, which is driving the demand for plant-based milk worldwide. For example, soy milk is a rich source of vitamins, proteins, and potassium and has a lower calorie content than cow's milk. Due to its high nutrient content, it is considered an ideal substitute for dairy products.
- The increasing demand for non-dairy yogurt is being led by millennials with busy lifestyles, promoting the consumption of ready-to-eat, on-the-go snacks. Companies are introducing different variants in terms of flavors and health claims to cater to the changing tastes and preferences of consumers.
