U.K. Oat Milk Market to Reach ~GBP 765 Million by 2033, Driven by Plant-Based Innovation & Premium Barista Blends
February 2026 | Phoenix Research
The U.K. Oat Milk Market is poised for significant growth, expanding from GBP 420 million in 2025 to an estimated GBP 765 million by 2033, reflecting a robust CAGR of ~7.4% during 2026–2033, according to the latest analysis by Phoenix Research.
Oat milk’s popularity in the U.K. continues to surge, fueled by rising adoption of plant-based diets, lactose intolerance awareness, and consumer preference for sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Its creamy texture, versatility in coffee, tea, and recipes, and lower environmental footprint compared to traditional dairy milk make it a favored choice among Millennials, Gen Z, and health-conscious adults.
Retail-packaged oat milk currently dominates the market, while flavored and barista-style variants are witnessing the fastest growth due to rising café consumption, premium coffee culture, and demand for fortified functional ingredients. Leading market players include Oatly, Alpro (Danone), Plenish, Minor Figures, Rude Health, and The Collective Dairy Alternative.
