This report focuses on the functional beverages market which is experiencing strong growth. The report gives a guide to the functional beverages market which will be shaping and changing our lives over the next ten years and beyond, including the market's response to the challenge of the global pandemic.

Major players in the functional beverages market are Danone, Clif Bar & Company, Universal Nutrition, Cloud 9, The Coca-Cola Company, Monster Beverage Corporation, Arla foods, National Beverage Corp, Cloud 9 and Nestle.

The functional beverages market consists of sales of functional beverages and related services. Functional beverages are non-alcoholic drinks which contain non-traditional ingredients such as vitamins, minerals, dietary fibers, probiotics, and added fruits. Function drinks include energy drinks, sports drinks, enhanced fruit drinks, and functional bottles water.

The growth is mainly due to the companies resuming their operations and adapting to the new normal while recovering from the COVID-19 impact, which had earlier led to restrictive containment measures involving social distancing, remote working, and the closure of commercial activities that resulted in operational challenges.

The market is expected to reach $173.23 billion in 2025 at a CAGR of 7%.

Increasing awareness of health is anticipated to propel the demand for functional beverages over the forecast period. Functional beverages help to enhance various body functionalities including the management of heart rate, digestive health, immune system, and weight management attributing to the presence of vitamins, minerals, herbs, and amino acids.

Consumers are increasingly shifting towards the consumption of functional beverages that contain ingredients to address these specific health issues. According to Packaging Strategies journal, a major change in the beverage industry is moving toward functional beverages as consumers strive to improve health.

Additionally, the rise of clean-label, organic, and non-GMO products are impacting the buying behaviours of the consumers. Therefore, the consumer preferences for functional drinks over carbonated drinks and fruit juices are projected to drive the demand for functional beverages over the forthcoming years.

The wide availability of cheaper substitutes such as green tea, coffee, and fresh juice is hindering the growth of functional beverages market. The prices of functional drinks are comparatively higher than that of carbonated drinks and other available substitutes. Thus, the availability of substitute products is negatively impacting the growth of the market.

For instance, dry beverage mixes, which offer functionality are cost effective and have low transportation costs. The ingredients in dry beverage mixes provide high nutrient replacing the need for functional beverage with low costs. Availability of cheaper substitutes thereby restrains the growth of the market
