Food Premix Market Forecasts to 2028 – Global Analysis By Form (Powder and Liquid), By Type (Vitamins, Minerals, Amino Acids, Nucleotides and Others Types), By application (Early Life Nutrition/ Baby Food, Food & Beverages, Pharma OTC Drugs, Dietary Supplements and Nutritional Improvement Programmes), By Function (Vision Health, Energy, Bone Health and Other Functions) and Geography
According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Food Premix Market is accounted for $1.7 billion in 2022 and is expected to reach $2.5 billion by 2028 growing at a CAGR of 6.6% during the forecast period. Premixes are prepared commercial formulas that have each nutrient such as amino acids, antibiotics, vitamins, minerals, proteins, nucleotides, and others carefully balanced into and blended into one another. Due to an increase in cases of appetite loss, ageing populations are spending more on enriched and functional food. Due to the rising demand for nutrient-rich foods from consumers who are concerned about their health, manufacturers now include healthy additives like vitamin premixes. The demand for functional foods and supplements, rising parental concern over the nutritional supplementation of infant foods, and rising consumer demand for convenience goods are all contributing to the growth of food premix.
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), 2021, approximately 89% of the world's population is consuming iodized salt to combat the occurrence of micronutrient deficiencies. People have recently become more health-conscious and are constantly looking for healthy indulgent products that holistically improve their health and wellness which further boosts the market.
Market Dynamics:
Driver:
Increasing Demand for Fortified Food Products
In order to grow and live healthy lives, more than 2 billion people worldwide lack the essential vitamins and nutrients. Health-conscious consumers have a particularly high demand for fortified foods, which is primarily driven by the rising cost of healthcare, the steadily rising life expectancy, and the desire of older people for a better quality of life in their later years. As a result, manufacturers of food and beverages are increasingly adding food premixes to their products to meet rising consumer demand for functional and nutrient-rich products, which is boosting the market's growth.
Restraint:
High cost of production
The market growth of food premix is anticipated to be hampered by the high costs associated with food fortification processes for large-scale food production. Advanced technologies are needed for food fortification, so many manufacturers are outsourcing premix production, which raises the cost of production. Therefore, it is estimated that the high cost of food fortification will slow market expansion.
Opportunity:
Growing demand for Customized Food Premixes
The demand for customised food premixes to meet particular needs is growing in the modern era as consumers and businesses become more aware of the nutritional information of various products. Manufacturers are able to create products that are nutrient-enriched as a result of consumer preferences and demands. Due to rising consumer demand for products fortified with vitamins or minerals and rising consumer demand for convenience goods, fortified micronutrient ready mixes have become extremely popular over time. In November 2021, Minafin Sprl introduced Blendamix, a custom premix for both food and pharmaceutical products, under its health chemistry division. These goods can aid producers in expanding output in order to keep up with rising demand. As a result, these factors are fueling the market.
Threat:
Regulatory Stringency on Quality and Safety Standards with Premixes
Strict regulatory guidelines with a focus on the veracity of label claims and overall product efficacy are enforced by regulatory agencies throughout developed regions, including Europe and the U.S. Additionally, it is anticipated that high fortification process investment will impede market expansion. Large-scale fortified product production's use of raw materials has a negative impact on the market's overall growth. Brands of dietary supplements must go through rigorous testing to identify, purify, and strengthen the product's composition with the aid of cutting-edge technologies. Therefore, the market's potential for growth is effectively hindered by these factors.
Covid-19 Impact
To ensure that people consumed enough nutrients for growth, development, and good health during the COVID pandemic, food was fortified on a large scale. It aims to support the availability of premix through hubs to stabilise supply and maintain fortification programmes, ensure that fortified foods reach the most vulnerable through social safety net programmes, and adapt advocacy efforts to the requirements of the COVID-19. The consumption of functional supplements, however, such as immune-boosting beverages and nutrient-rich products, has significantly increased among consumers as a result of COVID-19's fainting effects. The population has been forced to panic about purchasing products due to the fear of running out, which has increased the demand for nutritional supplements.
The Vitamins segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period
The Vitamins segment is anticipated to be the largest during the projection period. The practise of adding vitamin premixes to processed foods to address nutritional deficiencies in the population is a result of both the rising consumption of processed foods and the loss of naturally occurring vitamins in these foods during processing and storage. This market's expansion is primarily attributable to consumers' growing preferences for combinations of various functional ingredients, the fact that humans can benefit from a variety of nutrients, the rising prevalence of vitamin deficiency cases, and rising consumer demand for food products fortified with vitamins.
The Food and Beverages segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period
During the forecast period, the Food and Beverages segment is anticipated to grow at the highest CAGR, because it contains essential functional ingredients for many food products. Due to their impact on nutrition, satiation, and flavour, they are drawing more and more attention from food manufacturers. Premixed foods have a huge range of functional advantages. It is primarily used to improve finished products' flavour, texture, nutrient content, appearance, and nutritional stability. Such aspects are driving the segment growth.
Region with largest share:
The market was dominated by North America and is estimated to hold largest share during the forecast period. The well-established food and beverage industry, growing emphasis on food safety, rising incidence of chronic diseases, rising consumer demand for innovative and healthy food products, strong economic growth, and the presence of some major players are the main reasons for this region's dominance in the market. Moreover, the steadily expanding health-conscious population and increased indispensable income will help drive food premix sales in the region.
Region with highest CAGR:
Due to the increasing popularity of healthy lifestyles among the populace, Asia Pacific is anticipated to witness highest CAGR for food premix market over the forecast period. The history of traditional medicine has led to a rise in the demand for dietary supplements made of herbs or other nutrient-dense goods in China and Japan. Moreover, the momentum of the market's growth can also be boosted by factors like the growing middle-class population's increased purchasing power and the rising popularity of nutraceuticals in diets in the region.
