According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Lactose-Free Food market is accounted to grow at a CAGR of 7.2% during the forecast period. Some of the key factors influencing the market growth are increasing awareness & availability of lactose-free food products, and the rising number of lactose intolerance patients. However, the high price of lactose-free products and stiff competition from dairy alternatives such as cereals and nuts are hindering the market growth.

Lactose is a natural sugar found in milk and milk products, which is made up of glucose and galactose. The main motto for the production of lactose-free food products is to provide complete nutritional benefits for lactose intolerant people by preparing the products with no to minor amounts of lactose. These products help people with poor digestion levels.

Based on application, the dairy products segment is expected to have a significant market growth during the predicted period due to the rise in self-diagnosed cases of lactose intolerance.

By geography, Europe is estimated to hold a significant market throughout the forecast period. The growth is attributed to various factors. One of the important factors for the rising growth of lactose-free foods is the growing lactose intolerance among consumers. Moreover, consumers in European countries are opting for a vegan diet, which is expected to stimulate the growth of the market during the forecast period.
