This segment's growth is also owing to increased consumption of fortified beverages due to their nutritional values. Beverage manufacturers are concentrating on the application of natural flavoring ingredients such as natural stabilizers like pectin to fulfill market demands for natural goods combined with preservatives. Pectin is used for a wide variety of applications including fruit drinks and soft drinks.

Millennial Mindset: Integrating Exotic Flavors While Choosing Organic

Increasing consumers’ consciousness and the desire for more exotic flavor profiles, particularly driven by the millennial population are altering the flavor profiles as well as innovations in non-alcoholic and alcoholic beverages.

The millennial population is driving the growth of exotic fruit varieties. They are similarly triggering beverage producers to innovate with the product. These trends not only influence the lifestyle of millennials but their purchase decisions as well, making it imperative for beverage flavoring companies to keep pace with the dynamic consumer preferences.

Healthy living and focus on wellness constitute some of the most popular trends today. As a result, an increasing number of companies in the food sector are shunning the use of artificial additives to opt for organic products.

In addition to this, consumers nowadays have easy access to information - thanks to modern technology. They often read through the label of various food products before buying them. Due to the prevailing trend, an increasing number of producers are using beverage flavoring in their products.

Stringent Laws Implemented By Governments Aiding The Beverage Flavoring Market Growth

Strict product labeling laws and regulations have encouraged food & beverage producers to use natural flavoring ingredients because of their health benefits. Rising health consciousness has also led to greater acceptance of natural flavoring systems.

Additionally, beverage flavoring systems are experiencing rising global demand from sports, energy, carbonated, and alcoholic beverage manufacturers. The demand for beverage flavoring systems is expected to be resistant due to the high production costs and strict food additive regulations.

The Fruits & Vegetables Segment, By Type, Is Estimated To Dominate The Beverage Flavoring Systems Market

The fruits and vegetable segment is expected to represent the largest share in the market. Most manufacturing companies are influenced by the rising customer awareness regarding healthier goods.

To cater to the changing consumer demand they are introducing tropical fruit-flavored beverages and vegetable-flavored beverages, which is also expected to make this market the fastest-growing market during the forecast period. Strong growth in fruits and vegetable production along with increasing demand for natural flavoring is surging the segment share.

Natural Flavors To Dethrone Artificial Segment During The Forecast Period

Artificial flavors dominate the global beverage flavoring systems market since their inception. Artificial flavors are significantly cheaper than its counterpart, thus improving the profit margins for end-user manufacturers.

Natural flavoring agents are extracted from plants and animals while artificial flavoring agents are churned out from varied chemicals. The increasing availability of natural raw materials like citrus fruits such as grapes, oranges, limes, and lemons is owing to the rise in production rates and is transferring the preference towards natural flavors.

Further, consumer-driven movements such as ‘clean label’ have urged the food and beverage industry players to use natural additives in their produce.
