The global functional chewing gums market size is expected to reach USD 3.76 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 9.7% from 2025 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The growing immense popularity of such products among the millennials owing to the number of health benefits associated with them is expected to be an influencing factor for the industry growth. Furthermore, increasing willingness to pay a premium price for maintaining a healthy lifestyle is projected to expand the scope of functional chewing gums over the next few years.
The growing popularity of smoking cessation chewing gums and sliming chewing gums has been positively impacting the industry growth.
