North America Sour Cream Market Analysis
The North American sour cream market is forecasted to grow at a CAGR of 3.5% during the forecast period (2022- 2027).
The sudden outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has led to the implementation of strict lockdowns across several nations resulting in slight disruptions in the import and export activities of Sour Cream. Nevertheless, the pandemic has had a positive impact on the dairy industry. With consumers now focusing on dairy products, the demand for dairy is stabilizing at a higher level than pre-pandemic. For instance, According to Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, Sour Cream had a 17% increase, with sales up 26% during COVID compared to 2019. Sour cream contains beneficial bacteria, which support digestive health, thus, rising in demand. Increased demand for low-fat sour cream, convenient packaging format, consumption of toppings, organic whipped cream, and low-fat cream has fueled the sour cream market growth.
Due to the rising lactose-intolerant and vegan population in the country, there is an increase in the demand for non-dairy sour creams. The region has witnessed an increasing demand for sour cream with clean label claims, such as gluten-free and fat-free. These demands are supported by manufacturers focusing on introducing innovative products, thereby driving the growth of the market studied.
