Dairy products is performing well in Laos in 2023, benefiting from its reputation being a key source of nutrition and the status of baby food as essential for all households with babies and infants. However, the industry is facing some challenges in terms of local production, with imported dairy products being far more common.
In 2023, many products within the dairy industry remain popular among consumers. However, these products are predominantly imported due to the challenges faced by local producers, including technology limitations, lack of know-how, high investment costs, difficulties in branding, and pricing issues.
Most of the dairy products sold in Laos are packaged in folding cartons or plastic bottles. There are many imported brands that are widely available in Laos.
Most dairy products in Laos are imported, meaning prices are being impacted by both the rising cost of fuel and oil and the depreciation of the Lao kip against the US dollar and Thai Baht. Most dairy products have increased by up to 40% in comparison with prior to the pandemic.
Dairy distributors in Laos continue to face a number of logistical issues, with many roads throughout the country being poorly maintained. Poor road infrastructure even impacts major cities such as Vientiane, with the rising ownership of vehicles putting pressure on many roads.
Over the forecast period, Laos is expected to see increased demand for dairy products, especially in the hospitality sector. The rising number of café openings and the influx of clients, guests, and meetings in hotels indicate a potential surge in demand for dairy items like milk, yoghurt, butter, and cheese.
