British Population Adopted Veganism during COVID-19 Pandemic

The rising trend of switching to dairy alternatives was further accelerated during the outbreak of COVID-19. People were forced to stay indoors as the government imposed stringent restrictions regarding social distancing and even announced lockdowns. This resulted in people making healthy living and food choices. Many people switched to vegan and vegetarian diets during the COVID-19 outbreak. For instance, according to an article published by IFT in June 2020, 25% of the British population aged between 21-30 years stated that the COVID-19 pandemic has turned vegan diets to be more tempting. Around 37% of the British population responded that the COVID-19 outbreak has encouraged them to add more nutrients and supplements to their diet that support the immune system. Therefore, this is anticipated to boost this market even during the pandemic.

The lactose intolerant population is growing globally, and therefore the market is propelling on this basis. Besides the intolerant part, the perception among people that lactose-free items are better for human health is driving the demand for dairy alternatives. For example, according to the National Institutes of Health, around 68% of the total world population has inherited lactose mal-absorption. Furthermore, 70%-100% of East Asian adults are lactose intolerant, and most of this condition is found among adults overall. Additionally, the production of certain dairy products has substantial environmental bearings, which lead to harmful results such as soil impurity, air pollution, water infiltration, and extensive damage to biodiversity. This is anticipated to boost the dairy alternatives market growth in the foreseeable future.

Regional Insights

Asia Pacific to Ace the Market Backed by Rising Lactose-Intolerant Cases

The dairy alternatives market share in the Asia Pacific region was held at USD 10.13 billion in 2020. The market is primarily driven by the maximum reported cases regarding lactose intolerance. Moreover, the rising awareness among people for making the right food choices and healthy lifestyle choices has resulted in a major shift from dairy to non-dairy milk-based items. As several nations in the Asia Pacific region are yet developing, these dairy alternatives are cost-effective for daily utilization in several households.

North America holds the second largest market share globally. The people in this region are well informed about the negative traits of using dairy products and are aware of environmental depletion. Moreover, people are sensitive to animal cruelty and therefore are shifting towards veganism rapidly. However, only 1 million North American people, i.e., 0.5% of the total population, follow a purely vegan-based lifestyle.
