Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Health Benefits

Kefir is an excellent source of probiotics. It contains high concentrations of vitamins and minerals and is also one of the major sources of protein. It is also a good source of vitamin K, calcium, vitamin B12, biotin, enzymes, vitamin B9, and other nutritive contents necessary for proper body functioning. It comprises adequate amounts of bacteria, which aid in the proper functioning of the digestive system. Kefir helps in stimulating the immune system and lowering cholesterol levels. It also aids in controlling the level of blood sugar and reduction of body weight. Due to its health benefits, it is increasingly being used in the dairy, pharmaceuticals, and dietary supplements industry.

Restraint:

High in sugar

Kefir is high in sugar. Some of the sugar content in kefir milk is natural sugar from the fruit juice or is that it tends to be milk, though manufacturers often add sugar and other flavorings to make the drink taste sweeter. Kefir is made from fermenting milk, which contains naturally occurring sugar. The fermentation process does not remove all the sugars in it. Hence it acts as one of the restraints for market growth.

Opportunity:

Rise demand for probiotics drinks

Kefir has gained popularity in health-conscious communities, but a lot of them are vegans. The market is responding with non-dairy products to appeal to vegans. Kefir can be consumed daily by people of all age groups. Rising health concerns across the province coupled with the efficacy of probiotics in addressing health concerns are expected to be create ample opportunity for the market.

Threat:

Side Effects

Kefir can cause an allergic reaction. If people allergic are to milk, kefir is made from dairy milk as it can cause a serious, life-threatening allergic reaction. Kefir is also made from substitute “milk”, such as rice milk. Cancer patients generally have weakened immune systems and can be affected by probiotics, which are living bacteria. This means that the bacteria can spread to other parts of the body and lead to other health problems, such as infection or sepsis.

The Flavoured segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The Flavoured segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period. The growth is attributed to the, flavored kefir products have a wide range of flavors and are famous among adults and kids as well. The popularity of flavored beverages across the world mainly contributes to the growth of the segment. The increased demand for flavored drinks has necessitated manufacturers to develop kefir with novel flavors.

The Milk Kefir segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The Milk Kefir holds the highest market share, as it can be prepared easily with cow milk, goat milk, coconut milk, and other non-dairy-based milk. It is made by adding kefir grains to milk. Kefir milk has several health benefits such as it boosts immunity, fighting cancer, builds bone strength, supports digestion, improving allergies, healing skin, and improving lactose intolerance symptoms. Additionally, Kefir manufacturers are inventing products with new flavors such as watermelon and pumpkin spice which in turn makes kefir the most preferred fermented drink.

Region with highest share:

Europe is projected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period, as it is a popular drink and the consumption is also high in the European countries due to the rising health awareness is captivating the growth of the market in this province. The focus of international brands to cater to the requirements of health-conscious consumers in this region also propels the market growth. Moreover, the popularity of probiotic foods and beverages and on-the-go snacks fuels the market growth in Europe. Fermented milk originates from the Near East and subsequently became popular in Eastern and Central Europe.

Region with highest CAGR:

Asia Pacific is projected to have the highest CAGR over the forecast period. This attributes to the fact that the manufacturers have a great opportunity to expand their business due to less number of competitors in this province. Consequently, the manufacturers have started setting their kefir businesses in this region. Countries including Japan, Australia, and New Zealand are expected to propel the regional market growth as a result of increasing awareness among consumers regarding fermented milk products over the past few years.
