Cheese is expected to develop at a stable pace in both volume and value terms over the forecast period despite its high degree of maturity. Sweden has among the highest per capita consumption of cheese in Western Europe and according to the Swedish National Food Association, almost 60% of consumers in Sweden eat full-fat cheese at least once a week.
Plant-based cheese is set to grow in popularity over the forecast period, but it is unlikely to present a significant threat to dairy cheese. Plant-based cheese is the least developed plant-based category within dairy and as such has a lot of room for growth, but none of the major players have yet introduced a plant-based cheese option (aside from Finish Valio (Oddlygood) in 2019).
Private label cheese lost share to branded alternatives during the pandemic, underpinning the shift towards more premium alternatives. Private label has gained share in most dairy categories, but it has struggled to maintain its share in cheese, especially in packaged hard cheese and soft cheese where the premiumisation trend is particularly strong.
