A report in Globes notes that Unilever will reconsider entering the market following a feasibility study it will conduct after Strauss and Tnuva enter the market, anticipating a rise in consumption following the entry of these two big companies.
Industry sources estimate Israel’s soy milk market at NIS60m (US$13.4m) a year, in consumer prices, noting that the market has been growing by 25%-40% a year in the past three years and predicting a rise between 30-50% in 2003. Soy milk accounts for only 2-3% of Israel’s milk market.
