The Asia Pacific dietary supplements market size is expected to reach USD 148.42 billion by 2030, expanding at a CAGR of 12.5% during the forecast period, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The demand for dietary supplements in the Asia Pacific market is anticipated to be driven by several factors such as increased healthcare awareness and a focus on preventive healthcare and personalized nutrition. Dietary supplements play a crucial role in providing targeted nutrients and addressing specific nutritional deficiencies or health concerns. Manufacturers are increasingly offering a wide range of supplements tailored to meet these individual needs.
Additionally, countries such as Japan and China are witnessing a significant increase in their geriatric population, leading to a greater emphasis on enhancing the quality of life through nutritional supplementation. As a result, the Asia Pacific market for dietary supplements is experiencing growth as individuals prioritize their health and seek products that can support their wellness goals.
The advancement in technology is a significant driving factor for the growth of the Asia Pacific dietary supplements industry. The region has witnessed rapid advancements in technology, including manufacturing processes, formulation techniques, and delivery systems for dietary supplements. These technological advancements have enabled the development of innovative and more effective supplement products, such as nanoencapsulation, controlled-release systems, and improved bioavailability.
Nourished, a 3D-printed personalized vitamin brand under Rem3dy Health, secured a USD 3.1 million investment from Suntory Holdings, a prominent Asian health enrichment company, in November 2022. This investment was aimed at bringing innovative technology to a new market, particularly in Japan. Nourished utilizes patented 3D-printing methods and a vegan encapsulation formula to create personalized daily nutrient gummies. Customers can choose from a selection of 40 ingredients, and Nourished combines seven of these ingredients based on the individual's specific needs and lifestyle.
Governments in the Asia Pacific region have implemented regulations and guidelines to ensure the safety and quality of dietary supplements. This regulatory support creates a favorable environment for manufacturers and consumers, boosting market growth. For instance, the implementation of the ASEAN Guidelines on Traditional Medicines and Health Supplements in 2020. The Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) developed these guidelines to harmonize regulations and ensure the safety, quality, and efficacy of traditional medicines and health supplements in member countries such as Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, and Indonesia. The guidelines provide a framework for registering, licensing, and marketing dietary supplements; promoting consumer confidence and facilitating market growth by establishing clear regulatory standards.
Manufacturers are expanding their product lines through product launches, mergers, and acquisitions to meet the growing market demand. For instance, in February 2022, Amway India introduced a new line of nutrition supplements in gummies and jelly strips. These products aim to cater to young millennials' preferences and busy lifestyles.
