Strong Growth Anticipated in the Milk Replacers Market up to 2030
Looking ahead, the milk replacers market is expected to continue its upward trajectory, reaching $7.19 billion by 2030 with a CAGR of 9.5%.

Key trends that will shape the market include rising demand for lactose-reduced nutrition products, growing use of plant-based and blended milk replacers, increased application of milk replacers in animal diets, the expansion of powdered milk replacer products, and a stronger emphasis on nutritional consistency.

Understanding What Milk Replacers Are

The Rising Demand for Dairy Products Fuels Milk Replacers Market Growth
One of the main factors driving the growth of the milk replacers market is the increasing consumption of dairy products like butter, cheese, ice cream, yogurt, and condensed or dried milk. Population growth, shifting dietary preferences, and heightened awareness of dairy's health benefits are encouraging consumers to include more dairy in their diets. To meet this rising demand, milk replacers are used as milk substitutes, which helps stimulate market expansion. For example, in November 2024, the US Foreign Agricultural Service reported that Australian milk production is forecast to grow by 1.1% in 2025 to 8.8 million metric tons, after a 2.7% rise in 2024 to 8.7 million metric tons. This trend highlights how dairy product growth supports the demand for milk replacers.
