The global vegan cheese market continues to expand as plant-based eating gains widespread acceptance. Valued at USD 3.85 billion in 2025, the market is projected to grow from USD 4.19 billion in 2026 to nearly USD 9.07 billion by 2035, registering a CAGR of 8.95% during the forecast period from 2025 to 2035.

This growth is largely driven by rising demand for plant-based foods and a strong shift toward ethical and sustainable consumption. Improvements in taste, texture, and product variety are further accelerating adoption across both vegan and flexitarian consumers.

As dietary preferences evolve, vegan cheese is becoming an increasingly important segment within the global alternative dairy market.
