According to TechSci Research report, “Halloumi Cheese Market – Global Industry Size, Share, Trends, Competition Forecast & Opportunities, 2030F”, the global Halloumi Cheese Market stood at USD 490.34 Million in 2024 and is expected to grow USD 910.55 Million by 2030 with a CAGR of 10.87% during the forecast period. The global Halloumi cheese market is experiencing steady growth, driven by increasing consumer preference for high-protein dairy products and the rising popularity of Halloumi in vegetarian and flexitarian diets. Originally from Cyprus, Halloumi has gained widespread recognition in Europe, the Middle East, and North America due to its unique grilling properties and versatility in various cuisines. The cheese’s Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) status in the European Union has further strengthened its authenticity, boosting demand across retail and foodservice channels. As consumers seek more diverse and flavorful cheese options, manufacturers are expanding their product portfolios with organic, smoked, and herb-infused Halloumi variants, enhancing its appeal in premium markets.

Several trends are shaping the global Halloumi cheese market, including the rapid growth of online sales, sustainability-focused production, and the rising influence of plant-based and hybrid cheese alternatives. The expansion of e-commerce platforms, such as Amazon, Tesco, and Walmart, has made Halloumi more accessible globally, with online sales growing at a double-digit rate. Additionally, sustainability and ethical sourcing are becoming key priorities, prompting manufacturers to invest in organic dairy farming, renewable energy use, and eco-friendly packaging. The emergence of plant-based Halloumi alternatives, made from soy, coconut, and cashew-based formulations, is also disrupting the traditional dairy segment, catering to lactose-intolerant and vegan consumers.

The future of the Halloumi cheese market remains promising, with continued innovation in flavors, sustainability practices, and alternative cheese formulations. Expanding retail distribution, especially through online channels, will play a crucial role in Halloumi’s global market penetration. The increasing adoption of ready-to-eat and convenience-focused Halloumi products, such as Halloumi fries, burgers, and frozen meal kits, will further drive consumer interest. As health-conscious and flexitarian diets continue to gain momentum, Halloumi’s high protein content and versatility will ensure its continued relevance in the global dairy industry.
