MARKET OVERVIEW

Creamy non-dairy fats are the main ingredients in non-dairy creams derived from hydrogenated vegetable oils. Manufacturers in the creamy non-dairy fat industry use premium fat substitutes made from hydrogenated vegetable oils for creamy non-dairy applications. The availability of a wide range of greases with different melting points provides a range of fat substitutes depending on the desired application. Hydrogenated vegetable oil is mainly used in the food industry, followed by the cosmetics and personal care industry and the pharmaceutical industry. Globally, the Non-Dairy Creamer market is expanding with the rising vegan population and the prevalence of lactose tolerance worldwide. Today, almost 70% of the world population is lactose intolerant, and therefore the demand for fatty ingredients of plant origin is expected to increase during the forecast period. A traditional dairy creamer is used in the preparation of beverages and contains lactose as its prime ingredient. The non-dairy creamer market counterpart comes in as a lactose-free substance and is considered as an alternative to dairy products such as milk or fresh cream. The variety of uses for non-dairy creamers includes as a staple part of the diet for people suffering from lactose intolerance and for vegetarians that prefer plant-based products as opposed to animal-derived products. The fundamental ingredient found in non-dairy creamers is vegetable oil. These provide taste and texture similar to dairy products.

Over the past two years, milk prices have fluctuated, causing uncertainty in dairy product prices, ultimately benefiting non-dairy cream manufacturers. Non-dairy cream is made with vegetable oil or products like soy, almond, and coconut as a basis, thus aligning with emerging trends. Although the increase in disposable income in developing countries has offered important market opportunities, the awareness and penetration of non-dairy cream in these countries are comparatively lower than in developed countries. As awareness of lactose intolerance and adoption of veganism is still low in these countries, the result is slow growth in the Non-Dairy Creamer market. The household usage of non-dairy creams is less due to a lack of awareness associated with them. The surge in demand for natural products compared to artificial foods is likely to propel the demand and revenue in the global non-dairy creamer market in some areas. Negative perceptions of certain products can affect the Non-Dairy Creamer Market. Although not proven, some believe that non-dairy creams eventually create health problems for people who would otherwise be healthy. The production of several food products that rely on non-dairy creams is promoting business demand.
