Global Nutraceuticals Trends to Watch out for in 2020

Global Nutraceuticals Trends 2020 supplements and Food

Nutraceuticals were very popular last year, and in 2020, there is every indication that this momentum will carry on. Due to their versatility, nutraceuticals are used in various industries such as animal feed additives, pharmaceutical foods, personal care, and beverages.

The global market size for nutraceuticals in 2020 is expected to reach $302.306 million from $182,092 in 2015. This increase is due to recent findings and innovations of function-specific antioxidants that create new opportunities for nutraceuticals.

Additionally, many people are focusing on preventive healthcare, healthy living, exercising, and increased medical treatment. This has stimulated the demand for products containing nutraceuticals.

Below is a list of five trends expected to shape the nutraceuticals industry in 2020.

1. All things cannabis

This isn’t a surprise to anyone after the passage of the Hemp Farm Bill that allows industries that use hemp in their products to grow their own. The FDA (Food and Drug Administration) has also approved a drug with CBD (cannabidiol), making plenty of nutraceuticals manufacturers jump into the CBD bandwagon.

Many companies can cash in on this trend, but they need to abide by the regulations and laws concerning the legalization of cannabis. For example, in some states that have legalized recreational and medicinal cannabis, there is a limit as to how much you can include in food products.

2. Nutricosmetics

Nutricosmetics is gradually gaining momentum as many individuals turn to anti-aging markets to find practical solutions for wrinkles, gray hair, and age spots. Millennials that are in their mid-thirties are crazy about pills that they can take to prevent and delay any aging symptoms.

Therefore, marketing nutricosmetics for Millennials is a great market idea for nutraceuticals companies.

3. Sports nutrition

Sports nutrition is a category for workout enthusiasts of all ages and physical fitness spectrum, providing a safe investment for nutraceuticals companies. For instance, you can create nutraceuticals fit for the elderly population that wants to exercise and stay fit. This provides them with nutraceuticals supplements that encourage them to be active.

We just completed a very large Homeopathic tablet order that required involvement from 4 different facilities. There was nobody else in the country that was willing to help us that we called until we found superior. First shipment came last week and we couldn’t be happier or more impressed with the team. Thank you Justine, Phil, Stephenie you are the best!

★★★★★
I was choosing between two companies to create a formulation, and it came down to their level of service, expertise and confidence in their ability to execute. After speaking to Phil, their lead guy who knows all things supplements and is very easy to communicate with, was enthusiastic and helped to create a strategy to see my vision through. The last thing you want is a transactional relationship in this industry, so whether you’re a first timer or a veteran, these guys know how to add value no matter what level you’re at. Highly recommend Superior and their team to get the job done.
★★★★★
When they say “Superior” they aren’t kidding. Of over 100 companies on our NSF list that we called, and over 20 that we talked to, Superior was the ONLY one that consistently answered their phones, worked incredibly diligently to problem solve and R&D an incredibly complex patented proprietary product, and consistently was two or three steps ahead of us, the landscape and their competitors. Looking forward to a long relationship Superior!
★★★★★
We’ve been using Superior for over 5 years. We came to them because our last manufacturer stopped making the capsule size I needed. I looked everywhere for a replacement. Luckily, I found Superior. They quoted me a fair price and sourced a hard to find ingredient quickly. In the 5 years we’ve had them make our product, which is a custom formulation, they have never delivered late once. Quality control is very high and I get constant updates from Phil our point person while it is being manufactured. I cannot recommend them enough.
★★★★★
Our previous manufacturer was 3 months late on a production and barely spoke with us. We have run many runs with Superior and as with all manufacturing, there was an order that was a little late because of poor crop growth. Not only did they warn us ahead of time they showed us the list of suppliers they were calling day and night to try to find replacement material. Best company ever!
★★★★★
Jake, Justine and Phil are just a few of the team members we have had the pleasure of working with at Superior. As a marketing agency working in the supplement industry, we work with many suppliers on behalf of our clients. I especially appreciate Superior Supplements Manufacturing because of their dedication to customer relationships. They go to extreme measures to ensure quality ingredients, fair pricing and great turn around times. The staff is also extremely knowledgeable. I would highly recommend this team.
