Complete Nutrition Products Market Summary

The global complete nutrition products market size was valued at USD 3.9 billion in 2020 and is projected to reach USD 6.3 billion by 2028, growing at a CAGR of 6.0% from 2021 to 2028. This growth highlights the increasing acceptance of nutritionally balanced food alternatives among a wide consumer base. Complete nutrition products are gaining popularity among consumers owing to the increasing focus on health, natural ingredients, clean labels, and organic food alternatives, as individuals become more conscious about maintaining balanced diets and preventing lifestyle-related health issues.

Moreover, consumer demand for convenient and easy-to-cook food products is anticipated to increase the demand for complete nutrition products in the upcoming years, particularly among working professionals and urban populations with busy lifestyles. The COVID-19 outbreak has impacted the market for complete nutrition products in both positive and negative ways, influencing consumer purchasing behavior and supply chain dynamics. During the initial phase of the outbreak, key players such as Huel Inc. started witnessing a sudden increase in demand as more and more consumers started stocking up on convenient and nutritional food products. Lockdown measures in most countries forced people to stay at home, which prompted consumers to buy products that require no cooking at all, and this has increased the demand for complete nutrition products during the forecast period.
