Margarine Market Summary

Introduction and Market Overview

Margarine, a butter substitute made from vegetable oils, caters to health-conscious consumers, with 520 million people globally affected by cardiovascular diseases driving demand for low-cholesterol alternatives. The rise of plant-based diets, with over 800 million vegans worldwide in 2023, boosts demand for margarine as a vegan-friendly spread. Margarine’s cost-effectiveness, amid 2023 global food price fluctuations, makes it a preferred choice in emerging markets over butter. The global baking industry, growing 6% in 2023, relies on margarine for its versatility in pastries and breads. Urbanization and changing dietary habits further support market growth, particularly in developing regions. The global margarine market is estimated at USD 2.0-4.0 billion in 2025, with a CAGR of 2%-5% through 2030, driven by health trends, veganism, and baking applications.
