Impact of COVID-19 on the Dairy Alternatives Market

The COVID-19 pandemic is re-shaping everything from global economies to product categories, pricing, and stock availability to consumer behavior. This crisis caused people to re-evaluate their diets because it has underlined the link between food, health, and immune responses. The COVID-19 pandemic is providing an unexpected boost for the dairy alternatives industry. Globally, medical studies show that COVID-19 has an overwhelming impact on people with underlying health conditions like diabetes, hypertension, and heart disease. From a manufacturing and distributing point of view, this industry has faced unprecedented demand from manufacturers as well as consumers, particularly for some products such as plant-based milk, cheese, and yogurts.
COVID-19's association with animal sources will result in a large population shifting from animal-based proteins to plant proteins due to various health and environmental concerns. Moreover, dairy alternatives are generated with less dependence on labor, making it less prone to staffing scarcity than red meat, which is relatively labor-intensive, encouraging the production of dairy alternatives.

As healthy diets play a crucial role in better immunity, the demand for a plant-based diet is increasing globally. Many companies in dairy alternatives have already started changing their strategies, witnessing sudden growth in demand. For instance, companies like Nestle S.A, Saputo Inc., and Danone SA are ramping up their production, discounting their plant-based alternative products to appeal to more consumers, expanding into more stores, and partnering with the stakeholders. Along with this, to further capitalize on the opportunities in the dairy alternative sector over the coming years, expansions, new product launches, diversifications, and acquisitions strategies are being implemented by leading manufacturers, such as Danone SA, Follow Your Heart, Sahmyook Foods, AXIOM Foods, Inc., Daiya Foods, Inc., and VBItes Food, among others.

The almond protein segment is estimated to command the largest share of the overall dairy alternatives market in 2020.
