What is Cheese?

Cheese is a dairy product derived from milk, produced through the coagulation of the milk protein casein. It involves the fermentation of milk using specific bacteria and the addition of rennet, which causes the milk to curdle and separate into curds and whey. The curds are then processed, pressed, and aged to develop a wide variety of textures and flavors. Cheese can be made from the milk of cows, goats, sheep, and other mammals, and it exists in numerous forms such as hard, soft, fresh, aged, and mold-ripened. The characteristics of cheese are influenced by factors including the type of milk used, the processing methods, aging duration, and the presence of added ingredients such as herbs or spices. As a high-protein food source rich in calcium and essential nutrients, cheese holds significant culinary and cultural importance in many parts of the world, forming a staple in numerous global cuisines.

Market Trend and Drivers of Cheese:

The global cheese market is experiencing significant growth, driven by a combination of evolving dietary patterns, rising disposable incomes, and the increasing demand for protein-rich and convenient food products. Urbanization and lifestyle shifts are contributing to the popularity of fast food and ready-to-eat meals, many of which incorporate cheese as a key ingredient, thereby propelling market expansion. In addition, consumer awareness of the nutritional benefits of cheese, including its high calcium and protein content, supports its consumption across all age groups. The rise of Western food habits in developing regions, particularly in Asia-Pacific and Latin America, further fuels demand. Product innovation and the introduction of flavored, organic, and specialty cheese varieties also enhance market appeal. Furthermore, growth in foodservice sectors such as fast-casual restaurants and quick-service chains amplifies cheese usage. Strategic marketing, expansion of cold chain logistics, and increasing availability of international cheese varieties in retail channels continue to shape market dynamics and drive sustained growth.
