Global Nutraceuticals and Processing Technologies Market: Drivers and Restraints

The market for nutraceutical and processing technologies has witnessed growth at a significant pace in the past few years. Key factors attributed to this are the vast rise in the prevalence of chronic diseases such as diabetes and the significant rise in the number of obese people on a global front. The market accounts for less than 10% of the overall valuation of the global food industry, but the market is considered highly lucrative owing to the high costs of products and a substantial rise in demand from consumers.

The global consumer is becoming increasingly aware of the vast health benefits associated with the use of nutraceuticals, such as delayed ageing, improved life expectancy, and prevention of chronic diseases. Such rise in consumer awareness coupled with the increased affordability of nutraceutical-rich products, especially across key emerging economies, are expected to fuel market’s growth over the report’s forecast period.

However, the high cost structure of nutraceuticals and associated products is expected to emerge as a restraint for the growth of the market, especially across certain cost-sensitive regional markets. Pressures to reduce costs of products in the nutraceutical and processing technologies market, which are commonly associated with high manufacturing cost and expensive raw material, will hamper the profit margins of companies operating in the market.
