Condensed Milk Market

Global Condensed Milk Market Size (2024 to 2032)

The size of the global condensed milk market is expected to be worth USD 7.93 billion in 2024 and grow at a CAGR of 3.5% from 2024 to 2032 to achieve USD 10.44 billion by 2032. The wide application of condensed milk in desserts and confectionery is likely to lead the market boom in the future. 

Condensed milk is basically a form of milk produced by the evaporation of moisture from milk. This ratio removes approximately 60% of the water from the total volume of milk. Condensed milk is rich, thick, and provides the same nutritional benefits. Condensed milk has numerous applications, including food, beverage, bakery, and confectionery. The milk evaporation process helps to increase the shelf life of condensed milk. Germany, France, and Switzerland are critical manufacturing points for sweetened condensed milk worldwide. Condensed milk is closely related to the dairy markets, generating notable returns, and is supposed to record steady growth over the forecast period.

MARKET DRIVERS

The global condensed milk market is expected to record growth over the outlook period as demand for processed dairy products increases and the confectionery industry grows.

Furthermore, the growing demand for culinary products, such as tea, coffee, and desserts, is supposed to accelerate market growth. In addition, concentrated milk is one of the main ingredients in desserts such as cakes and ice cream due to its thick texture and sweet flavor. Therefore, an increase in dessert demand is assumed to have a positive impact on market growth during the prediction period. Quality and longevity are the main consumer preferences and drive the purchase of food and beverages. The long useful life indicates that the consumption of the product has been extended. As a result, consumers tend to buy products in bulk and store them for future use. This purchasing activity is expected to drive the sale of condensed milk. The product lasts for more than a year after the printed expiration date, if opened, for approximately 3 weeks after opening. This is one of the main characteristics of condensed milk and it is presumed to lead the market. As awareness continues to spread through campaigns and social media, there is a growing demand for dairy-free alternatives to all possible foods.

Also, the lactose intolerance group has been buying these products at a very high rate, keeping in mind that desserts can be enjoyed without fear like ordinary people. People with a sustainable mindset also prefer vegan breakfast products and figurative products because they do not guarantee any animal abuse at the time of production. Therefore, due to the multiple benefits of consuming non-dairy products, the vegan concentrated milk market is anticipated to show significant growth in the future. The effect has become evident as vegetable dairy exports increase worldwide. Condensed milk gives the rich dessert a smooth and creamy texture, making the end product tasty and sweet. Similar applications, such as fruit toppings and savory toppings, are expected to increase consumption of the product, thereby promoting market growth over the estimated period. Condensed milk has impressive nutritional value when consumed in the correct amount. This product contains around 60 calories per tablespoon, making it ideal for weight-focused consumers. It also contains essential vitamins and minerals like calcium, potassium, magnesium, and vitamin A that promote bone health. As awareness of the benefits of a product increases, demand for the product is deemed to increase in the coming years. R&D processing of condensed milk by evaporation, drying, and treatment at ultra-high temperatures is envisioned to open the way for the market during the forecast period.

MARKET RESTRAINTS

The demand for mortgage foods can hinder the growth of condensed milk, which is sweetened primarily for use in multipurpose food applications.

Furthermore, as the purchasing power of consumers increases, their propensity to consume healthy foods has increased. Growth in the healthy drinks and beverages market is expected to limit the market for the next seven years. Furthermore, the quality of the milk used in production and seasonal fluctuations in sales can have a negative impact on the market.

In 2023, Europe dominated only the condensed milk market, with a total share of 38.0%. Most global sales have been driven by Germany and Poland, with improved dairy production in these countries. Additionally, sweetened condensed milk is primarily used in morning beverages such as tea and coffee to reduce the bitter taste of coffee beans and tea leaves.

The demand for condensed milk products for use in desserts and confectionery is increasing not only in Canada but also in the United States.
