Analyst Opinion

The Milk Market in Bulgaria has seen slow growth due to factors such as changing consumer preferences, increased competition, and government regulations. Despite this, the Dairy Products & Eggs Market within The Food market continues to grow, driven by the convenience of online services and rising health consciousness. However, the minimal growth rate is being impacted by rising production costs and fluctuating market prices.

Customer preferences:
Consumers in Bulgaria are increasingly turning to organic and natural milk products, as health and wellness trends gain traction. This is driven by growing concerns over the use of antibiotics and hormones in conventional dairy production. Additionally, the rise of lactose intolerance and veganism has led to a surge in demand for plant-based milk alternatives, such as almond and oat milk. As a result, dairy companies are diversifying their product offerings to cater to these changing consumer preferences.

Trends in the market:
In Bulgaria, the Milk Market of the Dairy Products & Eggs Market within The Food market is experiencing a shift towards organic and plant-based milk alternatives, as consumers become more health-conscious and environmentally aware. This trend is expected to continue, with a projected CAGR of 10.5% in the dairy alternatives market from 2020-2025. This presents opportunities for dairy companies to diversify their product offerings and for new players to enter the market. However, it also poses a challenge for traditional dairy producers to adapt to changing consumer preferences and maintain their market share. Additionally, the rise of e-commerce and online grocery shopping is expected to further impact the distribution channels for milk and dairy products in Bulgaria.
