This makes them suitable for vegans, lactose intolerant individuals, those with dairy allergies, and/or people who simply wish to reduce their consumption of animal products.

Despite this, the market is expected to see steady growth due to increasing health consciousness and the convenience of online shopping.

Customer preferences:
As consumers become more health-conscious, there has been a growing demand for plant-based yogurt substitutes in Seychelles. This trend is driven by a combination of factors, including cultural preferences for vegetarian and vegan diets, as well as concerns about animal welfare and sustainability. Additionally, the rise of lactose intolerance and dairy allergies has also led to a greater demand for non-dairy alternatives. As a result, companies are innovating and introducing a wider range of yogurt substitutes made from ingredients like coconut, almond, and soy milk. This shift towards plant-based options is expected to continue as consumers seek healthier and more sustainable food choices.

This trend is expected to continue, with the market for yogurt substitutes projected to grow significantly in the coming years. Industry stakeholders need to adapt to this changing landscape by offering a diverse range of dairy-free options and investing in marketing and product innovation to meet the evolving consumer demand.
