Abstract

Opportunities and Key Players in Sports Nutrition
Emerging ingredients, key trends and market forecasts

Report Overview

Recent data suggests the global sports nutrition market is currently valued at between $27-32bn. The term 'sports nutrition' implies use only by individuals involved in sports, however it is no longer the exclusive domain of only professional athletes and sports people. Consumption of sports nutrition products attracts a diverse audience, from teenage girls drinking Gatorade for energy for soccer, to workers consuming sports nutrition products to take part in weekend sporting activities.

‘Opportunities and Key Players in Sports Nutrition: Emerging ingredients, key trends and market forecasts’ is a nutrition report published by Business Insights that identifies current sports nutrition and ingredient trends, and examines recent developments in evolving consumer profiles and motivations behind purchasing decisions. It also provides a unique overview of key fiscal and demographic factors impacting the EU and North American markets, with a specific focus on performance nutrition

Key Findings

Sports foods and beverages grow at CAGR of 5.3% between 2008-13. With a market value in sales of over $3.1bn forecast by 2013 sports foods and beverages will remain a significant market for sports nutrition.

Improving economies and population growth in emerging markets such as China, south-east Asia and Latin America is driving increased demand for nutritional products, and in particular sports nutrition products.

Total EU consumer spend on sports nutrition in Germany, Italy and the UK represents almost 60% of the total market. Germany leads the market, with $719m of sports nutrition expenditure in 2008, and this is forecast to increase to $783m by 2013.

The current sports nutrition market within the US was worth $3.5bn in 2008. Although the category has expanded by 4.7% (CAGR 2003-2008), Business Insights expects a slowdown to a projected growth of 3.8% over the period 2008-2013.

New Product Development. Innovation drives the sports nutrition category as consumers seek the holy grail of natural performance enhancement and brands aim to create a point of differentiation in the marketplace.
