Prime determinants of growth

The rise in popularity of cheese-based snacks significantly drives market demand for PDO feta cheese products. Consumers increasingly seek convenient and tasty snack options, and cheese-based snacks fulfill this desire with their rich flavors and nutritional benefits. Feta cheese, which is known for its tangy taste and crumbly texture, has become a favored ingredient in snack items such as stuffed peppers, cheese bites, and savory pastries. The surge in demand is fueled by the versatility of feta cheese, which can be easily incorporated into various snack recipes, appealing to a broad range of palates and dietary preferences. Furthermore, feta cheese is rich in essential nutrients, which significantly boosts its demand in the PDO feta cheese market. Feta cheese provides a high content of calcium that is crucial for bone health and is an excellent source of protein, which supports muscle maintenance and overall body function. Feta cheese is also lower in fat and calories compared to many other cheeses, which has made it a convenient option for those seeking healthier alternatives. 

Report Coverage & details:

Goat milk segment to maintain its leadership status throughout the forecast period.

By source, the goat milk segment held the major share of the market share in 2023, accounting for more than two-thirds of the global PDO feta cheese market, and is estimated to maintain its leadership status throughout the forecast period. Traditionally PDO feta cheese was made with 30% goat's milk and 70% sheep's milk. Unlike others, feta cheese cannot be made with 100% goat milk, due to its high lactose content. Traditional goat's milk feta cheese contains a high level of phosphorus and calcium.

Sheep milk was the fastest-growing segment of the market in 2023. The sheep's milk feta cheese is creamy, grainy, and soft in texture with a fat content of 21 g in every 100 g. It has a salty and sour flavor with a strong nutty aroma. The duration of the curing is at least three months, and the cheese is kept in a solution of brine.
