Customer preferences: The growing health consciousness in Central America is leading to a rise in demand for organic and plant-based dairy alternatives, such as almond milk and coconut yogurt.

These trends present opportunities for industry players to diversify their product offerings and cater to changing consumer preferences. However, it may also pose challenges for traditional dairy and egg producers who may need to adapt their operations to meet these evolving market demands.
