Increasing demand for food and infant-grade lactose, as well as a growing pharmaceutical industry in developing countries, contributed to lactose market expansion. Demand for infant formula has increased significantly, particularly in industrialized countries such as the United States and major European countries. China, which has historically been one of the greatest single consumers of infant formula, has long relied on imports. Because of the melamine controversy in 2008, there was a greater desire for imported baby formula brands. However, China has changed its focus to homegrown brands, promoting the country's major domestic producers. China Feihe and Inner Mongolia Yili Industrial Group Co. are two market leaders in the Chinese infant formula business. Due to increased demand for its infant formula brands in China, China Feihe had a 38% growth in sales from 2019 to 2020.

The expansion of the lactose market was aided by the decreasing breastfeeding rates globally. The rise in the working population and the availability of breast milk substitutes are mostly to blame for the decline in breastfeeding rates. One of the important elements driving up demand for infant formula in emerging nations such as China is the decreased breastfeeding rate in both developed and developing countries. As a result, some market participants are concentrating their efforts on manufacturing infant formula that is as near to breast milk as feasible. As a result, demand for infant-grade lactose is increasing. Similarly, with sustained economic expansion and urbanization around the world, breastfeeding rates in wealthy countries such as the United States, Germany, and Japan are likely to stay low, increasing demand for infant milk formula. As a result, demand for infant-grade lactose increased, supporting market development.

In 2021, Asia-Pacific region is expected to have the biggest share of the lactose market. The increasing manufacturing of infant formula in the region, as well as the growing pharmaceutical industry in Asian countries such as China and India, are some of the factors driving Asia Pacific's dominance in 2021. Furthermore, strategic expansion efforts by major competitors in the market to meet rising demand are fueling market growth. For example, Olam Food Ingredients announced an investment plan for a new dairy processing factory in Tokoroa, New Zealand, in September 2021. The new factory will improve the company's production network by producing high-value dairy ingredients such as lactose.
