COVID-19 Market Insights: Demand for Immunity Bolstering Supplements Supports Nutraceutical Sales in the MENA Region during Outbreak, Says FMI Report

Major nutraceuticals companies are seeking to leverage opportunities in the preventive healthcare segment during the coronavirus pandemic, in addition to brand promotion activities.

DUBAI, UAE / ACCESSWIRE / June 30, 2020 / The Middle East & North Africa (MENA) nutraceuticals market is projected to grow impressively throughout the assessment period (2020-2030). The global pandemic has resulted in high demand for immunity boosting supplements. In addition, a drop in meat, poultry, and seafood consumption will in turn boost the demand for protein supplements in the months ahead.

Nutraceutical brands are investing in awareness campaigns, targeted through social media platforms to reach consumers through digital means. Furthermore, the change in production, consumption, and policies are likely to be temporary. However, investments into clean label, organic formulations, with research & development endeavors will help sustain sales in the years to come after the pandemic, reveals FMI.

"The coronavirus pandemic has revealed the importance of collaborations between governments and nutraceutical companies in terms of changes in regulatory policies and research. While research can be conducted by nutraceutical players, implementation of relevant programs in the public sphere can be done through collaboration, which will boost market prospects post pandemic," says the FMI analyst.
