Although many consumers have reduced discretionary expenditures in response to the unfavorable economic environment during COVID-19, industry revenue still increased in 2020 as consumers sought convenient and nutritious foods to manage weight and supplement diets. So, industry-wide revenue has increased at a CAGR of 3.1% over the past five years – including an estimated 1.7% increase in the current year – and is expected to total $6.1 billion in 2023, while profit decreased to 5.7%.
