Overview of the functional food and beverage market in the US
Technavio’s market study identifies the increasing awareness of functional foods among different age groups as one of the primary growth factors for the functional food and beverage market in the US. The increased media coverage has enhanced consumer awareness regarding the consumption of vitamins, minerals, calcium, and other nutrients. Millennials, generation Z, and the older generation are becoming more health-conscious and prefer to consume healthy food with healthy ingredients to prevent health issues such as weight management, cholesterol levels, and other lifestyle-related diseases. Vendors are also focusing on developing products to target age-related disorders and to help consumers inculcate healthy nutrients in the diet. Technavio’s market analysts estimate that this market will grow steadily at a CAGR of almost 7% by 2021.
Vendors are increasingly coming up with new products and ranges in functional beverages to expand their product portfolio and cater to a wider target audience. Factors such as new product development, improved taste and versatility, supported by high levels of marketing will increase the demand for functional ingredients.

This focus of vendors to launch new products will be one of the key trends that will gain traction in the functional food and beverage market in the US.
