Market Segmentation

“A2 Milk Market Report and Forecast 2024-2032” offers a detailed analysis of the market based on the following segments:

Market Breakup by Form

  • Liquid
  • Powder

Market Breakup by Packaging Type

  • Carton
  • Bottles
  • Others

Market Breakup by Distribution Channel

  • Hypermarkets and Supermarkets
  • Grocery and Convenience Stores
  • Online 
  • Others

Market Breakup by Region

  • North America
  • Europe
  • Asia Pacific
  • Latin America
  • Middle East and Africa

The liquid segment is expected to continue its dominance in the market

The liquid segment accounts for the majority of A2 milk market share and is likely to lead in the  forecast period as well. The growing sales of packaged liquid milk can be attributed to its nutritional benefits, cost-effectiveness, and convenience. The natural flavour and soothing taste of liquid A2 milk as well as the growing trend of regular supply of fresh liquid milk, especially in developed countries, is likely to be a major driving factor in the market. The sales of liquid A2 milk are estimated to be further propelled by the growing awareness about the various health benefits offered by the product. Meanwhile, powdered A2 milk is anticipated to gain significant traction in the forecast period owing to the high shelf life of the product and its convenience of usage.

Milk carton is widely preferred owing to its convenience and economically and ecologically balanced nature

Cartons are easy to handle, open, and pour, making them user-friendly for a wide range of consumers, including families with children. The packaging is designed for easy storage in refrigerators and is often equipped with features like screw caps or spouts for resealing, which aids in maintaining freshness after opening. Cartons can effectively protect milk from light and air, two factors that can degrade the nutritional quality and flavour of milk. The cost-effectiveness and sustainable benefits offered by the packaging type add to the A2 milk market demand.

Meanwhile, bottled milk, particularly in glass bottles, is often associated with higher quality and freshness. Consumers may perceive bottled milk as being closer to the source and less processed compared to carton-packaged milk and this perception is especially strong for glass-bottled milk, which is frequently linked with premium quality products.

As per the A2 milk market analysis, the Asia Pacific accounts for a significant market share.
