PROSPECTS AND OPPORTUNITIES
Plant-based dairy is expected to register relatively stable performance over the forecast period
With an increasing quantity of tariff-free fresh milk from New Zealand entering Taiwan since January 2025, interest in plant-based dairy may decline in favour of more affordable fresh milk options.
Foodservice is expected to see declining demand for oat milk
Looking ahead, plant-based milk is expected to continue underperforming in the foodservice channel. Previously, foodservice played a significant role as a retail channel for oat milk in Taiwan, with many cafés incorporating well-known oat milk brands into their lattes.
Soy milk likely to see ongoing premiumisation in the coming years
Traditionally, soy milk has been viewed in Taiwan as an affordable and nutritious drink, particularly popular among older adults who often regard it as an affordable alternative to cow’s milk. Consequently, modern grocery outlets, such as convenience stores and supermarkets, have been dominated by well-known brands such as Uni-President, Kuang Chuan, and I-Mei, all of which offer reasonably priced products.
