Greece has seen the launch of many new free from dairy products in recent years, and the demand for plant-based dairy products is expected to grow over the forecast period. This demand is creating an opportunity for the development of more plant-based yoghurt products and this trend is also supported by the increased demand for products that are free from lactose – a dietary requirement that can be met by using plant-based yoghurts.
There is a general trend in Greece towards healthier choices and an increase in product ranges that cater to different health and wellness trends. When consumers purchase their groceries now, health claims are often a primary factor that consumers consider when choosing between products on the shelf.
