Butter consumption in the US is projected to increase steadily from 6.54 pounds in 2024 to 6.84 pounds in 2028. Compared to 2023, where consumption stood at 6.46 pounds, these forecasts reflect a consistent upward trend. Year-over-year growth shows marginal increases, with the most substantial increment happening between 2024 and 2025. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) for this five-year period suggests a moderate average annual growth in butter consumption.
Future trends to watch for include potential shifts in consumer preferences toward health-conscious alternatives, which could affect butter demand. Additionally, changes in dairy industry regulations and economic factors like inflation could further influence future consumption patterns.
