Oat Milk Manufacturer Expansions

'Oatly' is Opening Several New Production Plants for Its Milk

— December 10, 2021 — Business
'Oatly,' the popular oat milk manufacturer, has rapidly grown in popularity in recent years. Modern trends have increased the demand for Oatly's signature oat milk, and the supply chain shortages caused by CoViD-19 have made it difficult for Oatly to satisfy this demand. While Oatly already has several production facilities across the world, such as in Utah and Sweden, these facilities cannot adequately satisfy the global demand for Oatly.

Due to his, Oatly is expanding its range of production facilities to include China, Singapore, and Utah. These facilities will place a level of relief on the global alternative milk supply chain and allow more consumers across the globe to have easy access to Oatly products. Consumers in recent years have been growing more and more partial to alternative milk products, and Oatly's immediate need for expansion reflects this growth.
