Binggrae released a dairy-free version of its iconic banana flavored milk.

The milk uses almond and soy for vegan consumers and those who cannot consume dairy products.

The product was certified by Korea Agency of Vegan Certification and Services.

The company released the new product in line with the potential growth in the vegan milk market.

The vegan milk market grew from 8.3 billion won ($6.4 million) in 2016 to 43.1 billion won in 2020, according to data from Korea Agro-Fisheries & Food Trade Corporation. The market is expected to grow to 66.8 billion won by 2025.

“We developed the product so that consumers can fully enjoy the vegan beverage,” said Binggrae spokesperson. “We hope it can receive as much love as our iconic original banana flavored milk.”
