Almond milk is projected to be the fastest growing segment with the CAGR of 14.4%, owing to its high demand in developed regions such as North America, driven by the rising vegan and obese population in countries such as the U.S.

Beverage is anticipated to be the faster growing segment compared to food. Beverages such as milk shake, energy drink, fruit mixed drinks, and others, prepared from soy, almond, coconut and other dairy alternative sources, are increasingly becoming popular. Food is further categorized into spread, creamer, yogurt, tofu and others. Spread segment is expected to gain maximum growth during the forecast period 2016-2022, as these spreads have lower level of saturated fats, compared to dairy spreads. Yogurts prepared from dairy alternative sources such as almond, soy and coconut are increasingly being consumed by vegan as well as other consumers due to their high nutritional content. The yogurt segment is expected to grow at a CAGR of 14.6% during 2016-2022.

The ability of dairy alternative products to provide similar nutritional benefits as that of conventional milk and related products, is expected to promote their demand. Further, the ongoing innovations aimed at improving the taste, flavor and formulation would propel the growth of dairy alternatives market, states Bhawna Kohli, Manager Research at AMR.
