Snack Bars Market In Us: Key Drivers, Trends, and Challenges

The research studied the historical data considered for years, with 2021 as the base year and 2022 as the estimated year, and produced drivers, trends, and challenges for the snack bars market in US.

Key snack bars market in US Driver

New product launches are one of the key factors driving the snack bars market in US growth. The increasing number of new product launches can influence the growth of the US Snacks Bar Market during the forecast period. The demand for snack bars is increasing in the country, owing to the convenience offered by snack bars and their rising popularity as meal replacements. For instance, in March 2021, Clif Bar & Co. announced the expansion of its snack category with the launch of CLIF Thins. This is a crispy, crunchy take on the original CLIF BAR version and can be used for everyday snacking by families, commuters, and other people. Similarly, In January 2021, Kellogg Co. launched its first plant-based snack bar range created for children. The company expanded its W.K Kellogg range with the new bars, which are made with fruits and vegetables. Moreover, In January 2022, Kellogg Co. introduced three new flavors within its Nutri-Grain brand, which include two fruit and vegetable breakfast bars and new bites. Thus, the increasing number of new product launches will increase the demand for snack bars in the US, which will help in the growth of the market during the forecast period.

Key snack bars market in US Trend

The rising demand for on-the-go breakfast options will fuel the snack bars market in US growth. The increasing demand for on-the-go breakfast options among consumers can positively influence the growth of the snack bars market in US during the forecast period. The number of consumers that prefer snack bars as a meal replacement option is increasing in the US and is expected to drive the growth of the market during the forecast period. The changing lifestyle of consumers is contributing to the growth of snack bars as a breakfast option. Time-pressed consumers are on the lookout for breakfast options that offer convenience as well as nutrition. The convenience and health benefits offered by snack bars are making them popular as an on-the-go breakfast option. Vendors are offering breakfast bars to meet the rising demand for snack bars as a breakfast option. KIND, Kellogg, and General Mills Inc. (General Mills) are some prominent vendors that offer breakfast snack bars in the market. KIND offers breakfast snack bars in on-the-go pouches, which makes it convenient for consumers. Thus, the popularity of snack bars as a breakfast option among consumers will help in the growth of the snack bars market in US during the forecast period.

Key snack bars market in US Challenge

Product recalls are the major challenge to the growth of the snack bars market in US. An increasing number of product recalls can hinder the growth of the snack bars market in US during the forecast period. Vendors can issue product recalls owing to various factors, such as product contamination and incorrect labeling. Most manufacturers purchase or source raw materials from third-party suppliers. The improper handling of these raw materials or supplies can adversely affect the safety and quality of the finished product. A product recall severely affects a company's brand image as well as its operation and sales. For instance, in the second week of June 2022, Built Brands recalled the Banana Cream Pie Puffs protein bar. The US FDA then published the announcement on its website. Samples from these protein bars tested positive for E. coli. The company recalled 4,196 individual bars that were shipped to 1,049 customers through mail orders. The recall involved selecting Meal Bar flavors in 3-oz packages distributed across retail stores in the US and Canada. Thus, product recalls due to product contamination are expected to negatively influence the growth of the snack bars market in US during the forecast period.
