Manufacturers are offering their products on various online platforms including company-owned portals and e-retailers to cater to the requirements of a huge customer base in an attempt to expand product visibility, especially in emerging markets. Additionally, the growing rate of digitalization has impacted the penetration of brain health supplements, particularly in developing countries. For instance, in September 2020, Loblaw Companies Ltd. announced an investment of USD 75 million in Maple Corporation, a leading virtual care provider in Canada, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Shoppers Drug Mart Inc. The move was aimed at providing people in the country with the convenience and security of a digitally connected healthcare network.

Growing demand for multi-functional drugs that serve the purpose of performance enhancement, antidepressants, and energy boosters along with enhancing attention, visual perception, and others for esports professionals and gamers is expected to drive the demand for these supplements.
