Camel dairy comprises immunity-boosting antibodies that help minimize the risk of autoimmune diseases. It is a rich source of iron, copper, manganese, magnesium, sodium, and vitamins A and C. Besides this, it comprises less concentration of lactose and saturated fats. At present, there is a considerable rise in the consumption of camel dairy products on account of their health benefits and growing lactose-intolerant individuals across the UAE.
The camel dairy market is primarily driven by the rising prevalence of diabetes in the UAE. Camel milk helps in improving the lipid profile and minimizing insulin resistance. This, in confluence with the increasing health consciousness among individuals, represents another significant factor contributing to the market growth. Apart from this, manufacturers are investing in the production of value-added products, including camel milk-based ice cream, cheese and chocolates, to expand their consumer base. Moreover, governing agencies in the country are undertaking numerous initiatives to promote the consumption of camel milk and dairy products, which is positively influencing their demand. For instance, the UAE Ministry of Economy provided a value-added tax (VAT) exemption certificate to Emirates Industry for Camel Milk and Products (EICMP), a Dubai-based camel milk producer, thereby relieving the custom duty on imports.
