Plant-Based Yogurt Market to Reach USD 12.3 Billion by 2032 at 13.54% CAGR Driven by Demand for Dairy Alternatives

The Plant-Based Yogurt Market is projected to grow from USD 4.45 Billion in 2024 to USD 12.3 Billion by 2032 at a CAGR of 13.54%, driven by demand for dairy-free, vegan alternatives, nutritional innovation, and sustainability concerns among health-conscious consumers.
Published 17 July 2025

The Plant-Based Yogurt Market is expected to be worth 3.92 billion (USD) by 2023. The Plant Based Yogurt Type Products Market Industry is predicted to increase from 4.45 (USD Billion) in 2024 to 12.3 (USD billion) in 2032. The CAGR (growth rate) for plant-based yogurt-type products is predicted to be around 13.54% between 2024 and 2032.

This surge is largely fueled by the rising demand for dairy alternatives, driven by dietary restrictions, environmental concerns, and the growing popularity of vegan and flexitarian lifestyles.

The Shift Toward Dairy-Free Living

In recent years, there has been a significant consumer shift away from traditional dairy products, particularly among those with lactose intolerance, dairy allergies, or ethical concerns regarding animal agriculture. Plant-based yogurts, made from ingredients such as almonds, coconuts, soy, oats, and cashews, have emerged as a compelling alternative, offering both taste and nutrition without the downsides of dairy.

Consumers are increasingly scrutinizing food labels and seeking out products that are free from animal-derived ingredients, hormones, and antibiotics. The rise in plant-based yogurt is a direct reflection of this changing mindset, where health, transparency, and sustainability intersect.

Nutritional Innovation and Product Diversity

One of the key drivers of market growth is the rapid innovation in formulation and flavor development. Early plant-based yogurts often faced criticism for texture and taste inconsistencies. However, recent advancements in food technology have led to significant improvements in creaminess, nutritional content, and flavor profiles.

Manufacturers are now offering high-protein, low-sugar, probiotic-rich options that rival — and in some cases surpass — traditional yogurts. From Greek-style coconut yogurt to oat-based options fortified with calcium and vitamin D, the category has expanded to meet a wide range of consumer needs and dietary goals.

Changing Consumer Lifestyles Fuel Market Momentum

The modern consumer is more informed and intentional than ever before. Millennials and Gen Z, in particular, are driving the demand for plant-based alternatives due to their concerns about animal welfare, environmental sustainability, and long-term health. These generations are also more experimental with food choices and are willing to try new plant-based products — including yogurt — as long as they meet expectations for taste, texture, and nutritional value.

In addition to full-time vegans and vegetarians, the rise of the “flexitarian” — consumers who reduce their meat and dairy intake without fully eliminating it — is playing a significant role in fueling demand. For these consumers, plant-based yogurt provides a convenient, delicious, and nutritious snack or breakfast option that aligns with their values and lifestyle.

Retail Expansion and Growing Accessibility

Retailers are also capitalizing on the plant-based trend by expanding shelf space and increasing the variety of non-dairy yogurt options. Supermarkets, health food stores, and even convenience stores are now stocking multiple brands and flavors, making plant-based yogurts more accessible to mainstream consumers.

Moreover, e-commerce platforms and direct-to-consumer brands are helping niche and emerging plant-based yogurt producers reach global markets, contributing further to the sector’s growth. With online grocery shopping becoming increasingly common, plant-based yogurt brands are leveraging digital channels for consumer education, subscription models, and personalized product recommendations.

Regional Trends and Market Leaders

While North America and Europe currently dominate the plant-based yogurt market due to high levels of health awareness and early adoption of vegan lifestyles, the Asia-Pacific region is quickly catching up. Rising incomes, urbanization, and a growing middle class are fueling demand for premium, health-oriented food products, including plant-based dairy alternatives.

Leading brands such as Silk, Alpro, Kite Hill, So Delicious, Chobani, and Oatly are playing pivotal roles in shaping the market. These companies are investing in R&D, marketing, and partnerships to strengthen their foothold and meet the growing demand for innovative plant-based yogurt products.

Sustainability and Environmental Impact

Another critical factor contributing to the popularity of plant-based yogurt is its lower environmental footprint compared to dairy-based counterparts. Producing plant-based yogurt requires less water, land, and energy and generates fewer greenhouse gas emissions. As climate change awareness grows, eco-conscious consumers are turning to plant-based options as a way to reduce their personal environmental impact.

Brands are also aligning with sustainability goals by using recyclable packaging, sourcing organic ingredients, and promoting zero-waste initiatives — values that deeply resonate with today’s conscious consumers.
