Increasing consumer awareness about gut health and the benefits of probiotics is boosting demand for functional dairy products like yogurt, kefir, and fermented cheeses. Starter cultures enriched with probiotics or tailored for functional benefits are seeing significant growth.
Also, there is a strong trend toward starter cultures clean-label products. Dairy producers are demanding starter cultures that are free from GMOs, artificial additives, and preservatives, reflecting consumer preferences for natural and organic food products.
