The sales of functional, probiotic foods, and beverages in recent years have risen substantially owing to higher prevalence of health awareness among consumers. Changing dietary behaviors and the increasing popularity of ready-to-eat foods have been fuelling the demand for citrus yogurt, finds Future Market Insights (FMI) in a new study.

Citrus yogurt manufacturers are increasingly leveraging the potential of their offerings as potential alternatives to ice creams and food spreads, while also focusing on strategies towards product launches and geographical expansion.

As per the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, 6 billion people globally consume milk and milk products. However, the vast base of lactose intolerant consumers will generate long term opportunities for non-dairy citrus yogurt products for years to come.
