The global probiotics market size is expected to reach USD 220.14 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 14.1% from 2024 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is experiencing steady growth driven by several factors including shifting dietary preferences toward healthier foods coupled with the rising consumer awareness about digestive health products. Manufacturers in the industry are increasingly focused on distribution agreements and partnerships for probiotic sales. For instance, in September 2020, OptiBiotix Health Plc., a UK-based probiotic nutritional supplement manufacturer, announced an exclusive distribution agreement with Ayalla Marketing for the former’s product distribution in Brazil. In such an agreement, manufacturers often decide the minimum order quantity to facilitate cost-effective shipments.
In addition, Meluka Australia, a company that expanded its probiotic range in collaboration with Probiotics Australia in 2021, also expanded its retail channels through other strategic alliances. The company launched an e-commerce channel via WhatsApp in March 2022. It implemented a conversational messaging technology offered by Gupshup for customer engagement. Its e-commerce store is accessible to Australian customers via the WhatsApp platform. Moreover, e-commerce is increasingly becoming popular owing to the availability of a wide range of supplements and probiotic food products. Various companies, especially new entrants, in the global market are collaborating with e-commerce companies to promote their products as well as achieve maximum market penetration.
In addition, supplement manufacturers are increasingly incorporating functional ingredients into products to increase their nutritional value. Ingredient suppliers and supplement manufacturers are focusing on product innovation to expand their portfolio of probiotics and probiotic-based foods and better cater to the specific nutrition conditions of consumers with digestive health problems. For example, in August 2021, SkinBio Therapeutics launched new probiotic supplements targeted at the skin condition psoriasis. This product launch was aimed at expanding the use of probiotics in different application areas.
