Cheese Market

Cheese Market by Type (Cheese Product and Cheese Powder), Product Type (Cheddar, Mozzarella, Parmesan, American Cheese, and Blue Cheese), Source (Animal and Plant), Nature, Distribution Channel, Application, and by Region - Global Forecast to 2026

Report Code: FB 1566 Oct, 2021, by marketsandmarkets.com

The global cheese market is estimated to reach $105.9 billion by 2026, growing at a 3.6% compound annual growth rate (CAGR). The global market size was valued $88.7 billion in 2021. The base year for estimation is 2020, and the historical data spans from 2021 to 2026.

Various factors have played a major role in driving the cheese market growth across the globe. The effects of rapid westernization have led to the rising demand for cheese in countries other than Europe and the US. A sharp increase in consumer demand for packaged meals containing cheese and rising demand from the food processing industry is also propelling the market.

Cheese products are mainly derived from dairy-based sources. However, there is an increase in trends of consuming cheese products derived from plant sources. Owing to various health-related issues such as lactose intolerance, allergenic associated with dairy-based products, among other consumers are more inclined towards plant-based food products. Furthermore, an increase in consumer shift towards vegan products are also to drive the growth of plant-based food products such as cheese.

The growth of the cheese market is brought forth through three major distribution channels- retail, food service, and food manufacturers. The foodservice industry has been severely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, where most of the fine dining and casual dining restaurants had to shut down amid the lockdowns. However, there has been steady recovery and improvement and the sales are now driven by an increase in the consumption of fast-food items, such as pasta, pizza, and burger, in quick-service restaurants (QSRs). 
 
Convenience food and ready-to-eat products are easy to cook and save preparation time. With the increasing number of working women in developed and developing countries, the demand for products, which are easy and quick to prepare while being tasty, fresh, and nutritious at the same time, continues to grow. Cheese is used in a range of ready meal products for adding characteristic flavor. Owing to the rising inclination of consumers toward cheese-flavored ready meal products, the demand for cheese is expected to grow across the globe. 

Cheese Market Dynamics

Drivers: Rising influence of western cuisines across the world

The rising influence of western cuisines, inflating disposable incomes, and introduction of a number of flavored cheese products, including pepper, garlic, red chili flakes, and oregano pickle, drives the cheese market. Although cheese is a staple in Western countries such as Europe and the US, its versatility enables it to cater to the different tastes and preferences of consumers globally.

The cuisines of Western countries are diverse, although there are common characteristics that distinguish them from those of other regions. There are hundreds of varieties of cheese and other fermented milk products used in Western cuisines. The effects of rapid westernization have led to the rising demand for cheese in countries other than Europe and the US. A sharp increase in consumer demand for packaged meals containing cheese and rising demand from the food processing industry are also propelling the market. In Asian countries, imports contributed more than 40% of overall cheese consumed in 2020. The rising demand in Asian countries, driven by rapid urbanization will drive the growth of Asian cheese market.

Restraints: Rising concern over the adverse health effects of cheese consumption

The rising consumer awareness about the ill-health effects of cheese poses a great restrain to the growth of the global cheese market. Obesity, high cholesterol levels, and heart diseases are the major conditions associated with the consumption of processed cheese. Furthermore, studies suggest that the consumption of cheddar cheese may pose an increased risk of breast cancer by increasing the production of galactose from lactose. The ripening process of cheese includes the production of a toxic alkaloid and toxic amines that bring changes to the nervous system, thereby resulting in high blood pressure, headaches, palpitations, and migraines. Rennet, preservatives, emulsifiers, and other chemical agents used in the production process of cheese can have ill effects on the body. Dairy products— especially cheese, are a major source of saturated fat in the average American diet. Saturated fats tend to raise harmful LDL cholesterol, which can boost heart disease risk. Published in the August 2016 American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, a study looked at more than 220,000 women and men in the Health Professionals Follow-Up Study, the Nurses' Health Study, and the Nurses' Health Study II, all of which explore the role of risk factors (especially diet and lifestyle) in major chronic diseases. The participants filled out food questionnaires every four years for up to 26 years. The dairy products they tracked included skim and low-fat milk, whole milk, cream, ice cream, yogurt, cottage and ricotta cheeses, cream cheese, and other cheese.

In the US, certain kinds of cheese have resulted in outbreaks of food-borne gastroenteritis, food sensitivities, lactose intolerance, allergies, and high-calorie content. As per a February 2022 MDPi journal, a daily amount of 50 g of cheese (a standard serving of hard and semi-hard types) was associated with a statistically significant 10% to 14% of higher risk of Coronary Heart Disease (CHD). Consumers have now become aware of the association of these diseases with cheese. This factor is posing as a restrain for various cheese manufacturers to overcome and meet the customer demand for healthy food.

Challenges: Regulatory Influence

The stringent regulatory legislations regarding cheese are projected to be challenging for the growth of the cheese market. The demand for accurate labeling, listing the names of all the ingredients in the product, and specifying the details of the ingredients and their nutrient content is on the rise owing to the rising health concerns. Such information is especially important in the case of food products that contain various additives; for instance, cheese is prepared by adding various ingredients, such as whey, caseinate, and maltodextrin. Adhering to these labeling regulations may increase the cost of packaging and labeling, which, in turn, affects the price of the final products. This leads to low acceptance by consumers, which poses a challenge for the cheese market.

The US Government has stringent policies for the labeling of packages containing cheese products. While packaging cheese products, the label must contain the accurate process through which the cheese has been processed and manufactured, such as ‘pasteurized’, ‘processed’, or ‘blended.’ It is also necessary that any cheese made from vegetables,fruits,meat should be labeled by these items. The regulation states that there should also be a standard font size for these ingredients making it easily readable to the consumers. According to the FDA “Where the names of optional ingredients are required to appear on the label, the designations of all such ingredients should be given equal prominence. The names of the optional ingredients should appear prominently and conspicuously but should not be displayed with greater prominence than the name of the food. The word "contains" may precede the names of the optional ingredients, and when so used will not be considered as intervening printed matter between the name of food and name of optional ingredients required to be placed on the label.”

Growth Opportunities: Growth of the cheese market in emerging economies

Emerging economies such as the Asia Pacific and South America are expected to witness a stalwart rise in the demand for cheese. Cheese consumption per capita has risen rapidly in East Asia, driven by rising incomes, changes in food habits, and the spread of restaurant chains that use cheese as a key ingredient. The process of rapid urbanization in Asia, combined with the rise in household incomes and the increasing popularity of the Western lifestyle amongst the middle and high-income population, promote the cheese market. The increasing consumption of pizza and other European-style fast-foods appears as a fundamental consumer trend, particularly amongst young people. Thus, the cheese market in Asia is concentrated in large cities, where the average-high income segment of the population mainly lives. A sharp increase has been observed in consumer demand for packaged meals containing cheese. Moreover, tariff reductions and increased tariff-rate quotas have lowered cheese prices, boosting imports.

Versatile Application of Cheddar Cheese to Drive its Market Growth

Cheddar is one of the many varieties of cheese, which is off-white and has a sharp taste with a relatively hard texture than any other variety. This category of cheese is most popular in European countries. Cheddar cheese was originated in a small town called Cheddar in the Somerset region, which is in southwest England. This type of cheese is made through a process typically called cheddaring, in which curd and whey are separated using rennet enzymes. Many multinational dairy cooperatives and companies now tend to add different flavors to cheddar by adding paprika, herbs, oregano, among others.

Cheddar cheese finds application across a multitude of industries, including bakery (melted, grated, shredded), soups, sauces, & dips, ready meals, snacks & cereals, and other food applications.

Growing Fast-Food Industry Promotes the Application of Cheese Powder in Sweet & Savory Snacks

Cheese powder is widely used in sweet & savory snacks to induce the cheesy flavor in them and provide a richer mouthfeel. In the savory snacks and sweets segment, cheese powder is majorly used in Mozzarella sticks, Nachos, popcorn, puffed snacks, and chips. The most popular brands that have cheese powder snacks are Cheetos, Burritos, McCain, and Venkys. Cheese powder offers better functionality and taste over other flavors and better convenience for use in a range of snack products. Consumers are now more inclined toward fast food and on-the-go products hence, led to an increase in the demand for snacks and fast foods, which has led the companies to think innovatively and proactively while making snacks products.

Demand for Cheese-Based on-the-Go Food Products to Drive the Ready Meals Market

Cheese powder is used in ready meals to add a specific cheese flavor to the meal or enhance the existing flavor in it. Application flexibility, flavor management, ambient storage, easy handling, and extended shelf-life are some of the key benefits associated with the use of cheese powders in ready meals.

Due to the hectic schedules and busy lifestyles of consumers, especially the millennial population, there has been an increased demand for on-the-go ready meals, which can be consumed immediately. Adding a specific cheese note or flavor to such ready meals gives it a Western taste and nature, enhancing the products’ value and appearance. Food manufacturers across the globe are capitalizing on this trend and investing in R&D to come up with innovative cheese-based ready meals that can cater to the growing demand.

Sauces, dressings, dips, and condiments are estimated to dominate the cheese market, with a value of USD 141.2 million in 2021; it is projected to reach USD 190.0 million by 2026, at a CAGR of 6.1% during the forecast period.

Cheese powder imparts an enhanced cheese flavor to sauces, dressings, dips, and condiments. This can be done with the use of a single flavor cheese or a mix of more than one cheese flavors. The use of cheese powder also offers better taste, convenience, and functionality in recipes where high-temperature cooking is required. Sauces made using cheese powder are widely consumed with pasta, vegetables, pizza, and casseroles. They are also used as dressings on salads, vegetables, fish, and other meat products. Dips and condiments made from cheese powder are normally consumed with vegetables, wings, and fried snacks.

With the rapidly rising demand for fast food in the Asia Pacific, the demand for cheese powder in sauces, dressings, dips, and condiments is likely to grow at the highest rate, in this region, during the forecasted period.

The process of estimating the size of the cheese market was a comprehensive one, involving four major activities. Firstly, an exhaustive secondary research phase was conducted to collect information on the market, peer market, and parent market. This phase was aimed at gathering as much information as possible about the cheese market and the broader industry within which it operates. The next step was to validate the findings, assumptions, and sizing obtained from the secondary research with industry experts across the value chain through primary research. This phase involved reaching out to experts in the industry to get their opinions and insights, which helped to verify the accuracy and reliability of the information gathered. Both the top-down and bottom-up approaches were employed to estimate the complete market size. The top-down approach involved analyzing the overall market size and then breaking it down into sub-segments, while the bottom-up approach involved estimating the market size of individual segments and then adding them up to arrive at the total market size. Finally, market breakdown and data triangulation were used to estimate the market size of segments and sub-segments. This involved analyzing the data obtained from the primary and secondary research and cross-checking it to ensure consistency and accuracy. By using these techniques, the size of the cheese market was estimated with a high level of confidence, providing valuable insights into the industry's current and future prospects.

Cheese Market Secondary Research

In the secondary research process, various secondary sources, such as Hoovers, Bloomberg BusinessWeek, and Dun & Bradstreet, were referred to, to identify and collect information for this study. These secondary sources included annual reports, press releases & investor presentations of companies, white papers, certified publications, articles by recognized authors, gold & silver standard websites, regulatory bodies, trade directories, and databases.

Cheese Market Primary Research

The market comprises several stakeholders, such as raw material suppliers, processors, end-product manufacturers, and regulatory organizations in the supply chain. The demand side of the market is characterized by the presence of manufacturing companies and government organizations, service-providing company officials, government and research organizations, and research officers. The supply side is characterized by the presence of key CEOs and vice presidents, marketing directors, product innovation directors and related key executives from manufacturing companies and organizations operating in the market, and manufacturing and marketing companies.

Cheese Market Size Estimation

Both the top-down and bottom-up approaches were used to estimate and validate the total size of the market. These approaches were also used extensively to estimate the size of various subsegments in the market. The research methodology used to estimate the market size includes the following details:

  • The key players were identified through extensive secondary research.
  • The COVID-19 impact on market size of cheese was determined through primary and secondary research.
  • All percentage share splits and breakdowns were determined using secondary sources and verified through primary sources.
  • All the possible parameters that affect the market covered in this research study were accounted for, viewed in extensive detail, verified through primary research, and analyzed to obtain the final quantitative and qualitative data.

Data Triangulation

After arriving at the overall market size from the estimation process described above, the total market was split into several segments. To complete the overall market engineering process and arrive at the exact statistics for all segments, the data triangulation and market breakdown procedures were employed, wherever applicable. The data was triangulated by studying various factors and trends from both the demand and supply sides. In addition, the market size was validated using both top-down and bottom-up approaches. It was then verified through primary interviews. Hence, three approaches were adopted—top-down approach, bottom-up approach, and the one involving expert interviews. Only when the values arrived at from the three points match, the data is assumed to be correct.
