Opportunities In Whey Products And Lactose: Market Growth And New Product Development In Sports And Infant Nutrition-Aarkstore Enterprise
Undoubtedly the functional benefits of certain Whey Products (in particular concentrates and isolates) are driving renewed interest and market momentum. But less-hyped areas should not be forgotten: use in Animal Feed and in human food use as a food (as opposed functional) ingredient will fuel demand. Lactose' use as a relatively cost effective, low glycemic index, carbohydrate source should not be overlooked either as this category will see greater volume growth in the future than overall Whey Products.
Functional applications will be at the forefront of shaping the future direction of Whey Products however, with markets like Sports Nutrition, Seniors' Nutrition and Nutritional Management creating demand for higher quality, value-added Whey Products in the future. Certain Whey Products, particularly concentrates and isolates (WPI) are potentially well placed to take advantage of these developments.
But growth will not just happen by itself – there are significant problems to overcome. First, much greater scientific substantiation of product benefits is required to establish efficacy and to pass regulatory hurdles, particularly in Europe. Beyond that marketers must also ensure the marketing messages have high integrity and accurately represent product benefits as misleading marketing has the potential to undermine the market. The potential for growth is there, but successful targeting requires carefully constructed strategies to be followed.

Highlights from this report
Global production volumes for Whey Products in 2008 were over 3.2 million metric tonnes, and over 0.9 million metric tonnes for Lactose. Europe is the dominant region in global Whey Products and lactose production, accounting for more than 50% of total production in both markets in 2008.
Functional uses for Whey Products are the hot area of the market due to the potential for Whey Products to leverage their excellent nutrition profiles (in particular their amino acid and protein profiles) into high quality nutrition for consumers.
Product markets which offer a role for Whey Products as a functional ingredient include Infant Nutrition, Sports Nutrition & Body Composition, and Immunity & Gut Health products, Weight Management and Satiety and Nutritional (disease) Management.
Issues that require addressing for growth in the market to continue include; the need to maintain product integrity and to market these products responsibly, the need to tackle head-on consumer mistrust of functional foods and the need to mitigate, as far as possible, price fluctuations.
Key market issues addressed
The key challenge for Whey Products remains how can ingredients suppliers and manufacturers maximize their potential? To achieve this a key aim will need to be taking the more refined Whey Products beyond specialist markets like Sports Nutrition and into the mass market.
Achieving widespread distribution will require careful marketing approaches. In common with all functional foods marketers must take care to ensure that products have demonstrable benefits and that marketing messages are clear and accurately portray product benefits.
Furthermore, consumer mistrust of marketing messages also needs directly tackling. In 2008 around 77% of Europeans and 67% of American s did not feel that "nutritional claims on food and drinks were trustworthy". This is a massive barrier which needs to be overcome for growth to continue in functional applications of Whey Products.
Competition between suppliers of Whey Products is likely to be intense in the future. For suppliers this means that establishing effective whey processing capabilities now is important. For manufacturers this means that more, better, Whey Products will become available in the future for them to use in product development.
Whey Products also need to establish their credentials compared to other high nutritional value ingredients (such as soy proteins) in consumers' minds. This needs to be achieved in a manner which does not bombard consumers with claims and counter-claims for different ingredients, as this runs the risk of alienating consumers from functional foods altogether.

Answer by Daniel ben Yeshia
Often at the local health food stores. But often you will find that online prices are cheaper than retail. For example look here:
http://ezpricematch.com/brand.asp?brand=180
And if you do find a cheaper price than theirs they will beat that price by 5%.
