Which Factors are Shaping the Path for Nutritional Blend Suppliers?

“Plethora of Potential Applications of Nutritional Blends”

With the growing awareness regarding health and wellness, people demand nutritional benefits from FMCG as well. Hence, to meet the nutrition demand in cosmetic products, cosmetic manufacturers depend upon nutritional blend manufacturers to meet these requirements.

FMCG manufacturers add nutritional blend mixtures or powder to cater to the needs of end users; for instance, Pantene Pro-V nutrient blend collection. Thus, the growing and evolving beauty and cosmetic industry have reshaped the growth trajectory of the target market.

Furthermore, the development of plant-based nutritional blends for infants is seeing high adoption rates. Such plant-based solutions coupled with dairy benefits provide overall growth and development to infants.

“Rising Awareness Regarding Health and Wellness”

COVID-19 and its variants coupled with seasonal flu have increased awareness among individuals regarding health and well-being. Nutritional blends not only increase immunity power but also contribute to cell recovery and growth, meet nutritional deficiencies, and others.

With the rising adoption of nutritional blend gummies, powder, and instant mixes by health-conscious individuals and fitness freaks, the market witnessed high revenue generation. Additionally, increasing healthy eating, vegan trend, and nutritional diet push has compelled market players to develop innovative solutions to cater to end users’ demands.

• The growing wellness economy showcases an average annual growth rate of 9.9%, and the wellness economy is anticipated to reach nearly US$ 7.0 trillion in 2025, as per data from the Global Wellness Institute.

Surging awareness regarding health and wellness will fuel the nutritional blend sales.

“FDA Approvals and Lack of Standardizations Hurting Market Growth”

To launch and commercialize new dietary ingredient products, companies need to get FDA approval. Here, new dietary ingredients refer to vitamins, minerals, herbs, amino acids, and others, under the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA) of 1994.

For FDA approval, companies need to meet standard manufacturing procedures. Manufacturers are also required to maintain and follow effective hygiene in the production facility, besides packaging and storing. Adulteration and chemical usage may lead to the disqualification of the product.

Government regulations and FDA approvals limit the entrance of new market players, which, in turn, challenges market growth. Thus, meeting the standardization criteria and delivering quality products will enable market players to improve their sales.
