Customer preferences:
There has been a noticeable increase in demand for plant-based milk alternatives in Argentina's Milk Market of the Dairy Products & Eggs Market within The Food market.

Local special circumstances:
In Argentina, the Milk Market of the Dairy Products & Eggs Market within The Food market is heavily influenced by the country's strong dairy industry and its cultural preference for milk products. The government's subsidies for milk production also play a significant role, leading to a highly competitive market with a wide range of products. Additionally, the country's favorable climate and fertile land contribute to the high quality and availability of milk, making it a staple in the Argentinean diet. However, strict regulations on dairy imports limit competition from foreign companies, further strengthening the dominance of local producers in the market.
