How Has The Prebiotic IngredientsMarket Size Evolved In Recent Years?
The prebiotic ingredients market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• The market size of prebiotic ingredients has seen a speedy increase in the past few years. It is projected to surge from $7.16 billion in 2024 up to $7.96 billion in 2025, demonstrating a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.2%.
The previous growth can be credited to a heightened emphasis on gut health, escalating issues related to digestive health, growing recognition of prebiotic ingredients' health advantages, increased consumer demand for natural and organic products, and a surge in demand for infant formula and baby food.
What Is The Projected Growth Of The Prebiotic Ingredients Market?
The prebiotic ingredients market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• Anticipated to gain momentum in the years to come, the market size for prebiotic ingredients is projected to climb to $11.84 billion by 2029, expanding at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 10.5%.
This growth, expected within the forecast period, is linked to factors such as consumers' growing preference for nutrient-rich foods, a surge in demand for sugar replacements, swift economic growth in evolving markets, an aging demographic, and a focus on digestive health, and official labeling and regulatory support. Foreseen trends for the forecast period involve advances in technology related to inulin and oligosaccharides development, the multifunctional attributes of prebiotic ingredients, personalized nutrition plans, collaboration with probiotics, as well as the rise in popularity of natural products and clean labels.
What Key Factors and Trends are Driving the Growth of the Prebiotic Ingredients Market?
The prebiotic ingredients market is anticipated to expand due to a surge in the demand for food and drink supplements. These supplements consist of concentrated sources of nutrients or other substances with a nutritional or physiological impact. They can be consumed in the form of food or beverages and are a major component of prebiotic ingredients. For example, a report released by Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada in March 2023 shows that the health and wellness food and beverage sector in Japan achieved retail sales of $56.4 billion in 2022. Predictions suggest a rise in this figure to $59.8 billion by 2026, implying a compound annual growth rate of 1.6%. Furthermore, the retail sales of the functional food and beverage segment reached $19.1 billion in 2022, with it expected to grow to $20.3 billion by 2026. Thus, the rising demand for food and drink supplements is fuelling the growth of the prebiotic ingredients market.
