The cheese category is expected to provide opportunities for growth in the forecast period, motivated by an ongoing change in consumption patterns and evolving consumer concerns and demand. Opportunities for cheese producers are anticipated to lay primarily in the positioning they choose to adopt for their products, addressing the trends which are growing in popularity.
In some cheese categories, such as unpackaged hard cheese, COVID-19-driven price dynamics are expected to normalise after some fluctuations, and return to pre-pandemic patterns. However, unit price growth will maintain high rates in the forecast period, predominantly due to the continued struggle with domestic milk production and the recovering global supply chain.
Cheese manufacturers in the UK are expected to face challenges from the delayed implementation of full checks on EU imported foods from July 2022, postponed to the end of 2023, allowing imported products to retain lower prices for the time being. Both local and imported dairy cheese brands, however, face serious competition from the flourishing plant-based cheese segment.
