Aspartame Market By Product Form (Powder, Granular), By End user (Food and beverages, Pharmaceuticals, Table Top Sweeteners), By Sales Channel (Offline, Online): Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2021-2031
The global aspartame market size was valued at $375.5 million in 2021 and is projected to reach $561.7 million by 2031, registering a CAGR of 3.9% from 2022 to 2031.
Aspartame is a high-intensity sweetener that is used to enhance the sweetness perception during intake. It is around 200 times sweeter than sugar. It is used in many foods and beverages because it is much sweeter than sugar, so much less of it can be used to give the same level of sweetness. Aspartame is frequently used in recipes that don't call for a lot of heat, as a tabletop sweetener, and as a sweetener in prepared foods and beverages (since heat breaks down aspartame). Some medications contain it as a flavor as well.
Some of the key causes of the rising incidences of weight gain and obesity, which have drawn consumers' attention to their sugar intake and sugar levels, are people's lack of physical activity and rising consumer affluence. More than 1 billion people worldwide are obese, including 650 million adults, 340 million adolescents, and 39 million children, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). These numbers are still rising. By 2025, the WHO predicts that 167 million adults and children will lose some of their health due to being overweight or obese. The majority of the world's population lives in nations where obesity is a leading cause of early death.
Processed food is consumed on the go and has a longer shelf life as compared to unprocessed food. These kinds of meals are also becoming more popular nowadays owing to the convenience they offer; some of them are ready to eat. Additionally, the availability of processed food has grown over time, which has changed how people eat. UNICEF reports that in 2019–2020, processed food consumption among school-aged teenagers was 42% daily carbonated sugary drink consumption and 46% weekly fast-food consumption. In addition, 77% of the distribution of processed foods worldwide is controlled by about 100 large businesses. Packaged processed food/ready-to-eat processed foods are extremely convenient, less time-consuming, and cost-efficient, and fewer efforts are required for meal preparation. These benefits have increased the demand for processed food, particularly among the working population and students. The increased demand for processed packaged foods is driving the need for sweeteners by food manufacturing companies to carry on the production of processed food. The rising preference for processed food is expected to fuel the growth of the global aspartame market.
Customers can choose from a range of artificial sweeteners in the main aspartame market. The rising demand for natural and organic food products has motivated the players to conduct research and develop natural stevia and leaves-based sweeteners. For their food and beverages, people nowadays prefer low-calorie sweeteners manufactured from organic plants. It is projected that this factor will lower the market's potential for revenue. Artificial sweeteners have drawn criticism for their potential negative effects on health. Experts believe that aspartame may eventually damage genes and cause cancer. The proportionate use of aspartame is supported by numerous regulatory bodies, including the WHO and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), among others.
Globally, consumers are becoming more health-conscious and moving toward healthier lifestyles. Today, people are spending more on products with more advantages due to greater purchasing power and an emphasis on aesthetics. For people to reach the required nutritional level and stay healthy, there is a high need for supplements and nutraceutical products. Important manufacturers are attempting to profit from the new health fads by putting aspartame in supplements to give them a better flavor. The demand for aspartame is anticipated to rise in the near future due to rising supplement intake. For instance, according to the Ministry of Finance India, Indian pharmaceutical exports achieved 24% growth in FY21. Cumulative FDI in the pharma sector crossed the $20 billion mark by September 2022. Such a rise in the pharmaceutical industry is expected to boost the growth of the aspartame market.
