Philippines Dairy Market Trends:

Rising Need for Nutritious and Protein-Rich Foods

The growing demand for nutritious and protein-rich foods among consumers is acting as a major growth-inducing factor. Dairy products such as milk, cheese, yogurt, and butter are increasingly favored for their health benefits, contributing significantly to market growth. According to the Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO), protein-energy malnutrition (PEM) and micronutrient deficiencies remain the leading nutritional problems in the Philippines. The general declining trend in the prevalence of underweight, stunting, and wasting among Filipino children noted in the past 10 years was countered by the increase in the prevalence rate in 1998. About 4 million (31.8%) of the preschool population were found to be underweight for age, 3 million (19.8%) adolescents and 5 million (13.2%) adults, including older persons were found to be underweight and chronically energy deficient, respectively.

Growing Urbanization and Lifestyle Changes

Rapid urbanization in the Philippines is leading to lifestyle changes, with more consumers opting for convenient and ready-to-consume dairy products. The urban population tends to have higher disposable incomes and a preference for diverse and convenient food options, including dairy. According to the Asian Development Bank, the importance of cities in national development is expected to increase as the country continues to urbanize. As of 2015, 51.2% of Filipinos were already residing in urban areas. They are spread in over 7,437 urban barangays out of the country’s then total of 42,036 barangays. Overall, 67.12% of the population in all cities throughout the country are living in urban areas. From 2010 to 2020, the total population in all 146 cities nationwide has increased by 19.27%, on average.  Along with the increase in the number of urban dwellers is the rise in the number of cities throughout the country over the years.
