Global Oat Milk Market Statistics, Outlook and Regional Analysis 2025-2033

The global oat milk market size was valued at USD 717.8 Million in 2024, and it is expected to reach USD 1,845.6 Million by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 11.1% from 2025 to 2033.

Self-service oat milk dispensers are gaining popularity in institutional settings across the U.S. These devices, when integrated into colleges, universities, and hospitals, improve convenience and sustainability while also meeting the rising need for accessible plant-based beverage alternatives in everyday settings. For example, in August 2024, Califia Farms announced the acquisition of Uproot Inc., a self-serve dairy alternative dispenser brand. The U.S. oat, almond, and coconut milk manufacturer plans to incorporate its own product range into Uproot Inc.’s dispenser unit, which is currently present in more than 150 U.S. colleges, universities, and hospitals. 

Moreover, organic oat milk in sheet form is redefining sustainable packaging by drastically lowering waste and weight. This new technique is consistent with eco-conscious consumer preferences, emphasizing minimal environmental effects while providing a convenient and lightweight alternative to typical liquid dairy-free products. For instance, in August 2024, Milkadamia unveiled the launch of flat pack of organic oat milk, its latest addition to the dairy-free products portfolio. The new product highlights the combination of innovation with sustainability through a 2D-printing process, making oat milk sheets that cut packaging waste drastically by 94% and weight by 85%. Furthermore, oat milk manufacturers are concentrating on enhancing product formulations to meet the growing demand for sustainable and health-conscious alternatives. In keeping with this, they are aiming to meet high nutritional standards while also lowering the environmental impact of their goods. Additionally, the increasing usage of oat milk in plant-based diets creates huge economic prospects for producers. Consumers are increasingly choosing fortified oat milk with extra vitamins and minerals over typical dairy products due to its health advantages. For example, the market for fortified oat milk in North America is increasing, owing to major companies, such as Oatly AB, Chobani, and Califia Farms LLC. These firms are producing unique oat milk variants, such as barista mixes and chocolate-flavored alternatives, to meet changing customer expectations for nutrient-dense, adaptable, and environmentally friendly beverages in both the retail and food service sectors.
