Emerging Trends Shaping the Drinking Yogurt Industry
Companies in the drinking yogurt sector are increasingly innovating by introducing functional dairy beverages fortified with probiotics to meet the rising consumer interest in gut health and overall wellness. These probiotic-enhanced yogurts provide live beneficial bacteria that support digestion, enhance the gut microbiome, and contribute to immune and metabolic health.

For example, in August 2025, Danone Activia-a France-based leader in dairy and functional foods-unveiled its Activia Proactive drinkable yogurt line. This new product contains billions of live probiotics, 3 grams of prebiotic fiber, and 10 grams of protein per serving, while reducing sugar content by approximately 25% and streamlining the ingredient list. Available in flavors such as Vanilla, Strawberry, Mixed Berry, and Peach Mango, the product is packaged in convenient multipacks designed to appeal to modern health-conscious consumers.
