Growth of the Cheese industry
Global cheese production is rising significantly, owing to growing demand for dairy products in emerging economies such as India and China, and increasing preference for natural cheese in developed nations. The industry offers a wide range of cheese in terms of texture, flavor, and taste, and these characteristics of cheese are largely dependent on the raw material used for its manufacturing.
Cheese is used as an integral constituent in fast-food and fine dining restaurants. According to the US Dairy Export Council (USDEC), the global cheese production stood at 20.4 million tons in 2010, which rose to 23 million tons by 2015, depicting a CAGR of 2.43% between 2011 and 2015. The increasing demand for cheese from the developing nations is expected to create significant export opportunities for the developed nations such as the US. According to USDEC, the global cheese demand is expected to rise in developing nations, which will drive the cheese trade by an additional 100,000 tons, annually, by 2021. The US and Europe Union (EU) are the world’s largest producers and exporters of cheese, with the EU representing approximately 72% of the global exports. The lifting of quota limits on the production of milk in the EU will lead to an increase in the production of cheese by 660,000 metric tons by 2020, as stated by USDEC. The following infographic provides statistical insights into the US cheese production scenario, with a forecast to 2020.
Cheese contamination and product recalls
Though cheeses are considered safe for consumption there have been instances of outbreak of foodborne diseases through cheese, due to the use of contaminated milk for cheese production. The foodborne pathogens originate in the raw milk from the unhygienic farm, storage, and transport environment; and from infected animals. These pathogens colonize in the dairy plants and contaminate the dairy products.
The Listeria outbreak in February 2017 in the US is one of the instances of cheese contamination, owing to use of unpasteurized-contaminated farm milk for cheese production. Owing to this, several major cheese brands such as Sargento (US), Saputo Inc. (Canada), and Meijer (US) voluntarily recalled their cheese products which include Colby, shredded taco, pepper jack, and cheddar cheeses. Factors such as consolidation and globalization of food supply chains makes it difficult to track the contamination and makes such outbreaks more likely and widespread. This is expected to pose a major challenge in the cheese ingredients market.
