Analyst Opinion

The Dairy Products & Eggs Market in Iraq is experiencing minimal growth due to factors such as limited access to technology, low health awareness, and cultural preferences for traditional dairy products. However, increasing availability of milk substitutes and growing demand for healthier options could drive future growth.

With the growing health-consciousness among consumers in Iraq, there is a noticeable shift towards organic and natural dairy products and eggs. This trend is driven by the increasing awareness about the benefits of consuming chemical-free products. Moreover, there is a growing demand for plant-based alternatives to traditional dairy products, as more individuals are adopting vegan and vegetarian diets. This shift is also influenced by cultural and religious factors, as dairy is not a staple in many Iraqi diets.
