Stay ahead with our updated market reports featuring the latest on tariffs, trade flows, and supply chain transformations.

What Will the Kefir Industry Market Size Be by 2025?
The kefir market has witnessed a robust expansion in the past few years. An increase from $2.49 billion in 2024 to $2.62 billion in 2025, marking a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.3% is projected. Factors contributing to this historical growth include heightened awareness about probiotic and fermented foods, growing curiosity about gut health and digestive wellness, burgeoning demand for organic and functional food items, shifting consumer inclination towards dairy substitutes, and the escalating trend of health-oriented lifestyle and eating habits.

What's the Long-Term Growth Forecast for the Kefir Market Size Through 2029?
In the upcoming years, a significant expansion is anticipated in the kefir market, which is projected to reach $3.25 billion by 2029, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.6%. This progress in the forecasted period can be due to the widespread online retail channels for kefir, an increase in lactose intolerance and dairy sensitivities, studies on additional health advantages of kefir apart from digestive health, and the demand for ready-to-drink kefir products and its inclusion in functional food and beverage recipes. The key trends for the forecast period include non-dairy and plant-based kefir, flavour innovations and blends, Do-it-Yourself kefir kits and home fermentation, packaging upgrades for increased shelf life, and the introduction of kefir-infused snacks and drinks.

What Are the Key Growth Drivers Fueling the Kefir Market Expansion?
The Kefir market is set to expand following the rising popularity of functional beverages, which are non-alcoholic drinks enhanced with nutritional elements such as herbs, vitamins, minerals, and amino acids, often with additional raw fruit or vegetables. This growth in the Kefir market is fuelled by increasing demand for drinks rich in nutrients, sugar-free products, and non-dairy items. For example, data from Circana LLC, an American media firm, revealed that in March 2024, total sales of sports drinks hit $4.89 billion, marking a 9.4% jump for the 52 weeks leading up to December 2023. Thus, the growing desire for functional beverages is a major catalyst for the Kefir market's expansion.

What Are the Key Trends Driving Kefir Market Growth?
Leading business entities in the kefir market are prioritizing innovation as a means to deliver products with finer textures and more subtle flavors, such as drinkable and spoonable formats. Drinkable kefir is a liquid variant for immediate consumption, while the spoonable type is denser and typically eaten with a spoon, akin to yogurt. An exemplar of such innovation was noted in September 2024, when India's Activia, a key player in the rapidly moving consumer goods sector, unveiled new product lines of spoonable and drinkable kefir, specifically designed to improve gut health. The new line of kefir offers natural, strawberry and raspberry flavors with two options of consumption and includes 16 live culture strains for enhancement of digestive health. This calcium-enriched kefir, designed for a seamless texture and gentle taste, serves an easy and pleasant way to maintain gut health.
