The veganism trends are rapidly rising in North America, Europe, and Asia Pacific markets. According to the Harris Poll conducted on behalf of the Vegetarian Resource Group, as of March 2019, 2% of American citizens considered themselves as vegan. Veganism was one of the top 5 searched terms on Google in 2019 in the UK and across the globe, according to Google Trends. Plant-based beverages have gained huge traction owing to shifting consumer preferences towards sustainable products, growing affiliation for animals, and rising awareness of animal protection. Moreover, a wide range of plant-based products are available across multiple retail channels including supermarket chains such as Walmart, Kroger, Lidl, and online retail platforms, among others. Increasing health concerns have compelled consumers to shift their preference to vegan foods and beverages. The vegan population is significantly increasing owing to the rising prevalence of lactose intolerance and various kinds of food allergies.
Hike in Demand for Plant-Based Functional Beverages is likely to drive the Market Growth
People are increasingly focusing on cutting dairy products from their diet owing to the growing influence of the trend of veganism and increasing prevalence of lactose intolerance. Moreover, they prefer animal-free products owing to the rising awareness regarding animal protection and affection toward them. The surging inclination toward plant-based products has encouraged innovations in the functional beverages market. According to the International Food Information Council's 2021 Food and Health Survey, more than 4 out of 10 buyers believe plant-based alternatives are healthier, even if two diets have similar ingredients and provide similar nutritional benefits. Therefore, manufacturers are increasingly developing vegan-friendly, plant-based functional beverages to cater to the emerging consumer trends, which is projected to drive the growth of the functional beverages market in the coming years.
Functional Beverages Market: Segmental Overview
Based on product type, the functional beverages market is segmented into energy drinks, sports drinks, fortified juices, functional water, and others. The fortified juices segment is projected to grow at a prominent CAGR during the forecast period. Fortified juices are enriched with minerals, probiotics, vitamins, prebiotics, and other ingredients. These juices provide high nutritional value to the consumers as they are fortified with essential nutrients. Owing to the growing awareness regarding the health benefits of consuming fortified juices, the demand for fortified juices has grown significantly in the past few years. The shifting inclination of consumers toward ready-to-drink and on-the-go functional beverages is also expected to fuel the demand for fortified juices during the forecast period.
Based on distribution channel, the functional beverages market is segmented into supermarkets & hypermarkets, convenience stores, online retail, and others. The convenience stores segment accounted for the largest share in the market. However, the online retail segment is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Convenience stores provide a large variety of products of different brands. Moreover, they are easy to reach since they are located in the vicinity of the residential areas. However, the online retail channels are gaining high consumer attention as they offer home delivery services, along with attractive offers and discounts. They also offer a wide range of products of different brands, and include customer reviews and ratings for specific products, which helps the consumers in choosing the right products for them. These factors are driving the popularity of the online retail segment.
Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Functional Beverages Market
The COVID-19 pandemic brought unprecedented challenges across the food & beverages, and nutraceuticals industries, among others. Lockdowns, border restrictions, travel restrictions, manufacturing units' shutdown, and other safety measures imposed by governments disturbed the operations of manufacturing companies. These restrictions hampered the supply chains of functional beverage manufacturers. Moreover, raw material shortage resulted in short-term financial losses for many functional beverages manufacturers due to low production volumes.
However, as the concerns related to health and fitness increased due to the outbreak, the demand for functional beverages increased dramatically as they offer specific health benefits, such as improved bone health, normal eye health and vision, cholesterol management, and improved heart health, which are beyond the regular daily intake of nutrients. Further, the manufacturers are scaling up their production due to ease in the restrictions imposed by governments, which is boosting the functional beverages market performance on the supply front.
