Functional Beverages in the United States 2010
Mintel, May 2010, Pages: 164
The functional beverages market showed impressive gains during 2004-07 but, like many other categories, sales fell in response to recessionary pressures. Companies developed a variety of new products in 2008 and 2009, yet many consumers preferred brand familiarly and a value proposition during the recession. Given the fact that many consumers are as frugal and fickle as ever when shopping for beverages, it is important to engage in a comprehensive analysis of the market with a keen focus on the preferences of current and potential customers.
This report is designed to provide the data and insight needed to gain a competitive advantage in the current market. More specifically, the report addresses the following questions:
- How have sales of functional beverages fluctuated in recent years, and why?
- Of the six segments included in the study—functional juice and drinks, energy drinks and shots, enhanced waters, functional soy drinks, functional teas and functional yogurt drinks/smoothies—which have posted gains in recent years, and which have performed poorly?
- What impact is the health and wellness trend having on the market?
- What impact is the economy having on the market?
- What impact will increased Food and Drug Administration (FDA) scrutiny have on the market?
- How much interest is there among consumers for beverages that include herbal supplements and other “novel ingredients”?
- What specific health benefits are consumers most interested in, and which are in less demand?
- How effective do consumers believe functional beverages are in helping them maintain good health?
- How are the lifestyles and attitudes of functional beverage users similar or distinct from non-users?
