Global Sweeteners Market Analysis Report 2024-2028: Opportunities in Research and Development Around Diabetic-Friendly Sweeteners

DUBLIN, Feb. 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The "Global Sweeteners Market by Type (High-intensity & Low-intensity sweeteners), Product (Sucrose, High-fructose corn syrup, Natural sweeteners, Polyols, Artificial & Novel sweeteners), Form, Application, Sales Channel and Region - Forecast to 2028" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The sweeteners market is projected to grow to USD 144.7 billion in 2028 from USD 115.8 billion in 2023 at a CAGR of 4.6% during the forecast period 2023 - 2028. The sweeteners market is experiencing robust growth due to the expanded application of both table sugar and sugar substitutes in the food and beverage industry. Health-conscious consumer trends and increasing concerns about the impact of excessive sugar consumption on health have led to a surge in demand for sugar alternatives. As a result, various sugar substitutes such as stevia, erythritol, and monk fruit are gaining popularity, providing sweetness with fewer or no calories. Food and beverage manufacturers are incorporating these substitutes to meet the rising demand for reduced-calorie and sugar-free products. Simultaneously, traditional table sugar continues to find extensive use, especially in the baking and confectionery sectors. The versatility of sugar, along with its role in enhancing flavor and texture, ensures its continued relevance. This dual trend - increased utilization of both traditional sugar and sugar substitutes - drives the overall growth of the sweeteners market, offering consumers a diverse range of options while addressing health and taste preferences in the evolving food and beverage landscape.

Sucrose is expected to be one of the largest sub-segments in the market

Sucrose is poised to maintain the largest share in the sweeteners market for several compelling reasons. As a natural disaccharide commonly known as table sugar, sucrose possesses widespread consumer acceptance and is a staple in various food and beverage applications. Its versatility extends from enhancing taste profiles to providing texture and color in a myriad of products. The inherent sweetness and familiarity associated with sucrose make it a preferred choice among consumers, and its application extends across a broad spectrum of industries, including baking, confectionery, and beverages.

Moreover, sucrose's functionality in preserving and enhancing the overall sensory experience of food products contributes to its enduring market dominance. While alternative sweeteners are gaining popularity, sucrose continues to be a key ingredient in numerous formulations. The enduring demand for sucrose, coupled with its irreplaceable role in culinary applications, positions it as a frontrunner in capturing and maintaining the largest share in the dynamic and evolving sweeteners market.

US is projected to have the largest share during the forecast period

US is anticipated to command the largest share in the sweeteners market, reflecting the pressing need for alternatives in a landscape where American adults and young individuals consistently exceed recommended daily added sugar intake. With adults consuming 2 - 3 times the recommended amount and children averaging 16 teaspoons daily (according to The American Heart Association), there is a heightened demand for low-calorie and sugar-free options. This surge in awareness regarding the health risks associated with high sugar consumption, particularly in beverages where 47% of added sugars are found, propels the growth of the sweeteners market. As consumers seek healthier choices and the food and beverage industry adapts to evolving preferences, the demand for sweeteners, including sugar substitutes, is on the rise. U.S. market's expansive size and responsiveness to health-conscious trends is driving the substantial share of the sweeteners market.
