In 2020, Swedish oat milk "OATLY" became a big hit in China, and the healthy and eco-friendly qualities of plant-based milk became well established among young people. Plantag is a leader in the market, as it offers milk made from plant-based ingredients such as pistachio and sesame, has fashionable pastel-colored bottles, and has begun selling its products widely in convenience stores and other outlets.
In addition, China has long been a country where soymilk is more popular than cow's milk, and there seems to have been little resistance to plant-based milk. Since oatmeal has become a staple breakfast for middle-aged and older consumers, it is likely that middle-aged and older consumers are also purchasing plant-based milk at convenience stores, despite the fact that this product appeals to young people.
