Future Market Insights

Increasing consciousness about good health and immunity have transformed the energy drinks market from a niche market to a mainstream success. Moreover, consumers' penchant to experiment compels them to experiment with different flavor combinations, enabling vendors to maximize their product sales.

PUNE, INDIA / ACCESSWIRE / June 10, 2020 / The global energy drinks market is slated to embark on a positive growth trajectory, expanding at a healthy CAGR between 2020 and 2030. Consumption of energy drinks has significantly augmented since the beginning of the 21st century as they enhance physical performance during any strenuous outdoor activity, most particularly during sports.

Imbued with caffeine and other dietary supplements, energy drinks have been a staple amongst adolescents and young adults. Moreover, preference for vegan and natural products is prompting consumers to opt for healthier beverages, augmenting the energy drinks market significantly. Energy drinks with fruit concentrates are especially popular, attributed to the presence of antioxidants.

Since the COVID-19 pandemic unfolded itself, there has been an increase in the general level of maintaining physical and mental fitness among people across the world. Remaining fit is directly proportional to the development of a robust immune system. For this, consumption of a healthy diet is very essential.

There is a perception amongst consumers that consumption of energy drinks helps achieve this objective due to the presence of antioxidants and other energy boosters. Consequently, sales have peaked in the U.S and Western Europe. Tapping into this trend, vendors are exploring opportunities to introduce immunity-boosting energy drinks, especially in the ready-to-drink (RTD) category.

"Increasing awareness about excessive sugar consumption leading to multifarious health problems has prompted people to switch to healthier food and beverage options. The perceived notion that energy drinks contain comparatively less sugar than conventional soft drinks is augmenting their consumption, prompting manufacturers to introduce different flavors and formulations to appeal to individual taste buds," infers a prominent analyst at FMI.
