South Korea Frozen Yoghurt Market to Grow at a CAGR of 3.50% During 2026-2035, Aided by Growing Consumer Preference for Healthier Dessert Options

A growing focus on health and wellness is significantly propelling the South Korea frozen yoghurt market expansion. Consumer awareness of the health benefits of yoghurt is driving a shift towards frozen yoghurt as a perceived healthier alternative to traditional ice cream. This trend has led to a surge in demand for frozen yoghurt products, particularly among urban demographics with a strong health consciousness.

The diversification of frozen yoghurt applications by food and beverage companies like PepsiCo (NASDAQ: PEP) is a significant driver of market expansion. Beyond its traditional function as a standalone dessert, frozen yoghurt is increasingly incorporated as a key ingredient in various culinary creations. This includes baked goods, beverages, and even savoury dishes.

The market is experiencing steady growth, driven by the increasing adoption of Western dietary trends and the country's robust food and beverage industry. To cater to evolving consumer preferences, brands are actively innovating with flavours, toppings, and flavour combinations, fostering a dynamic and competitive market environment.

The rising trend of fitness in South Korea has also contributed to the increased demand for frozen yoghurt. Its high protein content makes it a popular choice among athletes and fitness enthusiasts, further driving the growth of the market.

The burgeoning vegan movement and the increasing popularity of plant-based diets have fuelled a growing interest in frozen yoghurt as a viable dairy alternative. The introduction of dairy-free frozen yoghurts formulated with almond milk, coconut milk, and other plant-based substitutes has allowed the market to cater to the expanding vegan consumer base. This development has demonstrably contributed to the growth of the market.
