Which major factors have contributed to the expansion of the reduced lactose whey market?
The growing popularity of plant-based diets is expected to propel the growth of the reduced-lactose whey market going forward. A plant-based diet typically refers to a dietary pattern that emphasizes foods derived from plants such as fruits, vegetables, grains, nuts, seeds, and legumes, while minimizing or excluding animal products. The increasing popularity of plant-based diets is growing due to awareness of environmental sustainability, health benefits, and ethical considerations regarding animal welfare. Reduced lactose whey is incorporated into plant-based diets as a source of high-quality protein, providing a dairy-free option for individuals seeking to supplement their plant-based eating with additional protein while minimizing lactose intake. For instance, in January 2023, according to the Plant Based Foods Association (PBFA), a US-based trade association representing the interests of plant-based food companies, plant-based foods saw a sales growth of 6.6% in 2022, marking an increase from 5.9% in 2021. Moreover, plant-based creamer, the third-largest category after milk and meat, saw a 24% rise in revenue and a 12% increase in sales volume. Therefore, the growing popularity of plant-based diets is driving the growth of the reduced-lactose whey market.
