DUBLIN, May 10, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Global Lactose-free Food market 2016-2020" report to their offering.

The global lactose-free food market to grow at a CAGR of 11.21% during the period 2016-2020

Global Lactose-Free Food Market 2016-2020 has been prepared based on an in-depth market analysis with inputs from industry experts. The report covers the market landscape and its growth prospects over the coming years. The report also includes a discussion of the key vendors operating in this market.

Lactose-free foods are designed to cater to individuals who are lactose intolerant. These products are formulated with reduced lactose content or zero lactose content to provide consumers with the nutritional benefits of the product without any negative reactions. Lactose-free food can be segmented into three types: lactose-free dairy, lactose-free milk formula, and lactose-free ice cream. With the increase in awareness among consumers of the health benefits of these products, the sales of lactose-free food have increased.

The market is experiencing the development of lactose-free ice cream. Ice cream manufacturers have formulated lactose-free ice cream products to attract lactose intolerant consumers. Increased promotional and marketing initiatives is another trend in the market. Lactose-free food vendors aim to build a loyal customer base for their products by advertising lactose-free food as an ideal dairy alternative for lactose intolerant consumers.

According to the report, the rising level of lactose intolerance contributed significantly to the growth of the global lactose-free food market. Consumers are currently more actively interested in consuming healthier foods and dairy alternative drinks to help with digestive health disorders. Also, an increase in problems pertaining to digestion is adding to the demand for lactose-free food products in the market.

Further, the report states that educating consumers about lactose-free products is a challenge in the market. Consumers are unaware of the benefits of lactose-free products and need to be made aware that lactose-free products have the same beneficial nutrients as normal dairy products.
