In North America, increasing awareness about the health benefits of yogurt, especially among young adults has been a reason to include the food as part of main meals. The production of yogurt involves fermentation of milk, wherein friendly bacteria act on milk to convert milk into curds. Consumption of yogurt boosts immunity, helps combat diarrhea and constipation, and provides calcium as well.
Due to increased consumption of the product, distribution channels have also expanded operations for the product to be available across departmental stores, supermarkets, and hypermarkets among others. Consumption of yogurt is also a fad among weight watchers as a healthy food option. Due to these reasons, the North America yogurt market will be on a growth trajectory displaying double-digit growth rate in the coming years.
