Market Overview:
The GCC cheese market is expected to exhibit robust growth during 2021-2026. Keeping in mind the uncertainties of COVID-19, we are continuously tracking and evaluating the direct as well as the indirect influence of the pandemic. These insights are included in the report as a major market contributor.
Cheese is a dairy product made by coagulating the protein casein in milk. Its variety is determined by the origin of pasteurization, butterfat, protein, milk, mold, bacteria, aging, and processing. It has a longer shelf life than milk and other milk products and it is an excellent source of proteins, calcium, fats, phosphorus, and other essential nutrients. As a result, it is widely consumed across the GCC region.
The rapid growth in population, in confluence with the rising number of individuals who are adopting healthy eating habits, is propelling the growth of the cheese market in the GCC region. Moreover, various manufacturers are introducing a variety of products, including processed cheese slices, cheddar cheese in cans and tubs, and cream cheese in jars. However, the lockdown restrictions imposed by the governing agencies of different countries in the region are promoting the adoption of social distancing measures due to the sudden outbreak of coronavirus disease (COVID-19). This has influenced the market growth, but it is anticipated to recover once lockdown relaxations are provided.
