Factors Affecting the Growth of the Oat Milk Industry:


  • Rising Health Consciousness


Oat milk has been fully embraced by consumers who perceive it to be healthy because it is lactose-free, has low saturated fat and offers fiber content. There is still a surge of consumers looking to oat milk for the benefits of a plant-based diet more generally and sustainable eating habits. There are also fitness individuals and health-conscious consumers who are exploring oat milk in response to amenities and retail, which has seen oat milk grow like most dairy alternatives. Brands are also adding fortified versions of their oat milk products offering vitamins and and/or mineral to attract functional food buyers. This trend is reflective of a bigger functional food movement that is becoming increasingly appealing to consumers who want function without sacrificing taste or convenience.


  • Sustainability Driving Demand


Environmental issues are driving oat milk adoption because oat milk uses less energy, land, and water compared to dairy production. Eco-minded consumers are aware of carbon footprint related to their purchases, and oat milk is a sustainable choice because it has a lower carbon footprint when compared to other beverages, including dairy. Brands are promoting that they source ingredients sustainably and package with sustainability in mind to meet what consumers want. Oat milk is an increasingly popular choice given not only its sustainability, but it also meets the definition of a circular economy, upcycling a byproduct of oat flour, and companies have gone further than that by fostering local green initiatives. This trend has affected purchasing decisions, and retailers and food service are adding oat milk options to meet the demand for sustainable alternatives. Sustainability is no longer a trend; it is a significant purchase choice factor in the plant-based beverage space.


  • Café Culture Influence


Specialty coffee shops have taken oat milk into the mainstream, as baristas appreciate its creamy consistency and neutral flavor. And coffee shops around the world are offering oat milk as a default alternative to milk, and in turn are facilitating a shift in consumer behaviors beyond our stores. There has also been much social media buzz surrounding oat milk lattes and artisanal coffee beverages, particularly among younger consumers. This out-of-home demand for oat milk has impacted grocery sales as consumers are trying to replicate the café experience at home. The connection between foodservice trends and growth in grocery store sales demonstrate oat milk's cultural relevance and its place as a staple in the plant-based movement.
