Non-dairy creamer market is projected to grow at 4.8% volume CAGR through 2028

Nearly 2 million metric tons of non-dairy creamers were consumed in 2018 totaling a market value worth US$ 2.3 billion. According to FMI’s latest study, fat-free, plant-based and organic are being received positively by consumers, encouraging manufacturers to experiment. These insights are according to a new research study by Future Market Insights (FMI).

The consumption of non-dairy creamer is expected to grow at 5% y-o-y in 2019. Key driving factors include,

Increasing prevalence of lactose intolerance condition across the globe

Growing use of non-dairy creamers as a substitute for milk or cream

Non-dairy products’ labeling lacks FDA classification

“The market for dairy products witnessed a strong competition from non-dairy alternatives in the past decade against the backdrop of increasing population of lactose intolerants. Consumer sentiments for health have led them to distinguish between their purchase of dairy and non-dairy products. In addition, non-dairy brands are leveraging the health consciousness of consumers to communicate the health benefits of non-dairy products. However, without FDA classification, consumers will remain bemused during their purchase, thereby impacting the future market growth,” says FMI.

Powdered Non-dairy Creamers Top Selling Category

The FMI study finds that powdered non-dairy creamer consumption remained higher in 2018 and accounted for over 78% of the total non-dairy creamer consumption. While the status-quo is expected to continue in the future, demand for liquid non-dairy creamer is expected to grow at 5% in 2019.

Manufacturers in the field of non-dairy creamer market have introduced several packaging and preservation technology advances to increase the shelf life and deliver a high-quality product to consumers.

Conventional Non-dairy Creamers Continue to Hold Higher Market Share

As per FMI valuation, the non-dairy creamer market is witnessing a gradual penetration of the ‘organic trend’. The study finds that consumption of conventional non-dairy creamers equaled nearly 94% of demand in 2018.

The projected rise in the consumption of organic non-dairy creamers can be attributed to consumer sentiments for natural or organic ingredients in the non-dairy products. However, a strong brand image created by non-dairy creamer manufacturers will continue to fuel the consumption of conventional non-dairy creamers in the future.

The non-dairy creamer marketplace has witnessed expanding product portfolio wherein manufacturers are shifting to introduce flavored non-dairy creamers. The business strategy is led by manufacturers’ awareness regarding increasing consumer palate for different flavors in non-dairy products.

The FMI study finds that French vanilla, chocolate, coconut, hazelnut and other flavors collectively accounted for over 55% of the total non-dairy creamer consumption in 2018. Original/unflavored non-dairy creamers accounted for the remaining 45% of the consumption.
