The global dairy market — valued at over $900 billion and set to exceed $1 trillion by 2027 — is undergoing rapid change, fueled by shifting consumer tastes, health-driven demand, and sustainability imperatives. With the GCC importing over 70% of its dairy needs and plant-based alternatives growing at 40% year-on-year, the UAE stands as a key trade hub, re-exporting dairy across MENA and Africa.
