Customer preferences: As consumers in Nepal become more health-conscious, there has been a noticeable increase in demand for plant-based cheese substitutes. This trend is driven by a growing preference for vegetarian and vegan diets, as well as concerns over animal welfare and environmental sustainability. These shifts have also been influenced by the rise of social media and digital platforms, which have made it easier for consumers to access information about alternative dairy products and their health benefits. As a result, there has been a rise in the popularity of cheese substitutes made from ingredients such as nuts, soy, and coconut milk, catering to the changing lifestyle choices of Nepali consumers.
