With almond, soy, oat, and even pea milk saturating supermarkets, could dairy’s obsolescence be on the horizon? Taking cues from the success of hyper-real plant-based meat alternatives, Eclipse Foods has entered the dairy wars with an alt-milk that tastes even better than the original.

The proliferation of plant-based meat products at restaurants and grocery stores across the US has expanded the dining options available to vegans and vegetarians – but their appeal is not limited to those following niche diets. What’s driving more and more omnivores to gorge on meat alternatives?

Dollar cow’s milk has long been the obvious choice for Aussie dairy consumers. However, disruptors – such as The a2 Milk Company – have gained a stable foothold in the market. Charging four times the price of regular milk, a2 has become a ‘healthy’ product consumers are happy to splash out on.

Plant-based milk brand Oatly is heading on the road in 2020 with a series of experiential coffee shop pop-ups around the UK. By prioritising human interaction in its promotional strategies, Oatly is responding to a resurgent interest in physical retail from digitally-fatigued Gen Zers.
