Global Milk Powder Market is valued approximately at USD 30.2 billion in 2019 and is anticipated to grow with a healthy growth rate of more than 4.4% over the forecast period 2020-2026. Due to COVID-19 pandemic, the market has been facing the decline in consumption of dairy products because of temporary shutdown of hotels, restaurants and road side tea stalls etc. Milk powder is produced by dehydration of milk and stored without substantial loss of quality due to a low water activity that hampers microbial metabolism, preferably for a significant amount of time. Milk powder is obtained mainly by roller drying and spray drying methods and used as an ingredient for wide range of applications such as confectionaries, infant formulas, bakeries, and nutritional foods. Due to the presence of low moisture content powdered milk has a longer shelf-life and can be stored at ambient temperatures as well as transported to remote locations without proper cold chain infrastructure. The changes in eating habits and busy lifestyle, high nutritional value and growth of retail network in emerging economies are the few factors responsible for growth of the market over the forecast period. Moreover, increase in use of milk powder in infant foods and the presence of several nutrients such as vitamin C, vitamin B12, thiamin, and high amounts of protein, driving the growth of this market. Furthermore, introduction of innovative products and other strategic alliance by various market player will create a lucrative demand for this market.
