RTD Beverages Market Scope:
The RTD beverages market will touch around USD 45.50 billion by 2030, recording a CAGR 5.40% between 2022 and 2030, reveals Market Research Future (MRFR).
Growth Boosters and Challenges:
Ready to drink beverages have gained massive demand worldwide, particularly among millennials. The demand is especially high for RTD juices, nectars, and smoothies, in line with the emerging trend of a healthier lifestyle among consumers. The mass across the globe is growing aware of the different beverages and food they consume and carry out comparisons of the products to gain the benefits. Surging consumer awareness, a heightened number of informed consumers with clearer expectations, and their willingness to buy healthy goods can enhance the RTD Beverages Market size in the years ahead. Additionally, mounting awareness level about the toxic impact of alcohol consumption among the consumers is compelling them to go for RTD non-alcoholic beverages instead of alcoholic beverages, like spirits, beers, wines, and more.
On the other hand, the prevalence of an unhealthy lifestyle has been contributing to the spread of diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and obesity, forcing consumers to opt for healthier beverages. This has enhanced the preference for functional beverages among consumers. Functional beverages are often marketed as drinks with healthy ingredients that offer a wide series of health benefits. Owing to the presence of healthy ingredients like vitamins, amino acids, herbs, bacteria, and minerals in these beverages, the demand is seeing an upsurge worldwide.
The majority of the functional beverages like non-alcoholic RTD beverages have a beneficial impact on the body, including improved heart rate, immune system, electrolyte replenishing benefits post-exercise, digestive health hydration, and better intestinal flora as well as gut function, which is propelling the demand among consumers.
Segmental Review:
The RTD beverages market has been segmented depending on the type, bundling type, circulation channel, and area. By type, the worldwide market has been delegated cocktails and non-cocktails.
The source-wise segments are soy, whey, milk, and others. The whey segment grabbed the highest share in 2017 and will be leading the worldwide market in the following years. Whey protein is the most sought-after source for RTD beverages given its significant nutritional qualities, ease of digestibility, unique functionality and bland flavor. But the soy segment will capture the fastest growth rate, thanks to the mounting preference for substitutes for dairy proteins along with the surging cases of lactose intolerance.
The RTD beverages market, depending on packaging type, caters to cartons, cans, bottles, and others. The bottles segment can expect to secure the top position in the years to come while also attaining the highest CAGR due to its on-the-go convenience. On the other hand, the cans segment should also thrive at a substantial rate in the years ahead.
The RTD beverages market, in terms of distribution channel, can be classified as store-based as well as non-store based; while the store-based segment has been considered for convenience stores, supermarkets hypermarkets, and others.
