Dry Whey - Europe

Released on March 12, 2026

European prices for dry whey increased across the range this reporting period. 
Demand is strong in the region, but contacts report rising shipping costs are 
negatively impacting demand from purchasers in other regions. Spot loads of dry 
whey are available, but inventories are somewhat snug. Milk output is strong in 
Europe, allowing cheesemakers to run busy schedules and leaving plenty of whey 
for drying. Dry whey production is steady but limited somewhat as drying 
schedules are focused on whey protein concentrates.
