Market Overview
The global dairy market is projected to grow with a CAGR of 5% over the forecast period (2021 - 2026).
- In 2018, the global milk output was valued at 843 million tons, an increase of 2.2% from the value registered in 2017. This increase can be primarily attributed to production expansions in India, Turkey, the European Union, Pakistan, the United States, and Argentina. However, this factor was partially offset by a decline in milk output, especially in China and Ukraine.

The global market is primarily dominated by the milk segment, followed by butter and cheese segments. The yogurt and dairy desserts segments are expected to be the fastest-growing segments across the world.
- Globally, in 2018, the export of butter increased by 7.5%, mainly contributed by countries, like New Zealand, the United States, and India. However, in the European Union, there was a decline in the demand for butter.

Competitive Landscape
Dairy is an important part of food. It is essential in, both, food service and packaged good categories, whether as an end product (such as milk or yoghurt) or as a critical input for products, such as cheese pizza. Given its intrinsic presence, dairy is a microcosm of the food industry, with the preferences of dairy consumers largely influenced by the same trends affecting the food sector. The dairy market is considerably large, with the presence of numerous companies. Due to the dynamic and staple nature of the market, it is highly competitive. Furthermore, there is high scope for the entry of new companies, as entry barriers are not well developed. Changing consumer behavior, competition, and trade action are impacting the growth of dairy companies. Research in a representative sample of the global dairy companies revealed 3% decline in cumulative return on invested capital (ROIC), from around 9.5% in 2008 to 6.5% in 2017.
