Global Hemp Milk Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report By Source (Organic and Conventional), By Type (Sweetened and Unsweetened), By Distribution Channel, By Packaging, By Regional Outlook and Forecast, 2024 - 2031

The Global Hemp Milk Market size is expected to reach $1.5 billion by 2031, rising at a market growth of 15.1% CAGR during the forecast period. In the year 2023, the market attained a volume of 59,108.2 tonnes, experiencing a growth of 17.7% (2020-2023).

North America, particularly the United States and Canada, has seen a strong demand for plant-based beverages, including hemp milk, driven by increasing consumer awareness about health, sustainability, and alternative dietary preferences. The popularity of vegan, dairy-free, and gluten-free diets has significantly contributed to the rise of hemp milk in this region. Furthermore, North America boasts a well-established retail infrastructure, with widespread availability of hemp milk in supermarkets, health food stores, and online platforms. Thus, the North America region witnessed 42% revenue share in the hemp milk market in 2023. In terms of volume, the North America region is expected to utilize 57,025.7 tonnes of hemp milk by the year 2031.

The increasing awareness about the health benefits of hemp milk has been a significant driver for its market growth. Hemp milk is rich in essential nutrients like omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals, making it a valuable alternative for health-conscious consumers. With rising health issues like heart disease and high cholesterol, many people are turning to plant-based options such as hemp milk for its heart-healthy properties. Additionally, Lactose intolerance is a major driver for the increased demand for dairy alternatives, including hemp milk. An estimated 65% of the global population experiences some form of lactose intolerance, with higher prevalence rates in Asia, Africa, and Latin America. This condition has led many people to seek milk alternatives that do not contain lactose, and hemp milk has emerged as a popular choice. Thus, the high number of lactose-intolerant people worldwide drives the market's growth.

However, one key restraint limiting the widespread adoption of hemp milk is the high cost of production. Hemp milk is made by blending water with hemp seeds, which are relatively more expensive than the raw materials used to produce traditional milk or other plant-based alternatives like soy or almond milk. Hence, the high cost of production and pricing challenges are hindering the market's growth.
