Dairy snacks have numerous nutrients, such as calcium, magnesium, selenium, riboflavin, pantothenic acid, and vitamin B12 and B5. Their moderate consumption helps in reducing the risk of colorectal cancer, type 2 diabetes, and non-communicable diseases (NCDs), such as osteoporosis. Nowadays, several manufacturers are introducing new variants that aid in combating stress and anxiety and boosting mood. This, coupled with the growing awareness about their benefits, is driving the demand for dairy snacks, such as cheese, yogurt, and ice cream, across the globe.

Dairy Snacks Market Trends:

A considerable rise in the consumption of ready-to-eat (RTE) milk products on account of inflating disposable incomes and the increasing global population represents one of the key factors bolstering the growth of the market. This can also be attributed to shifting consumer preferences towards high-value products due to rapid urbanization and changing dietary patterns. Moreover, the growing awareness among individuals about the importance of adopting a healthy lifestyle is positively influencing the demand for dairy snacks like probiotic drinks. Apart from this, good nutrition plays a pivotal role in the overall growth and development of children. It also assists in protecting against infectious and chronic diseases. This, in confluence with the surging concerns among parents about their children's health, is escalating the demand for dairy snacks. Furthermore, several manufacturers are introducing fortified dairy snacks with the improved nutritional content of iron, plant sterols, and stanols. In line with this, due to the rising health consciousness among individuals, these manufacturers are offering low-calorie and lactose-free variants to cater to the diversified tastes and preferences of the consumers. This is anticipated to create a positive outlook for the market.
