How CPGs are creating disruption in the functional beverage aisle – podcast
The health and wellness base is driving growth in the global beverage market, and we are fortunate to be in the center of the functional beverage category, said Jim Tonkin, president and founder of Healthy Brand Builders.
The global beverage market is expected to exceed US$1.9 trillion by 2021; however, rising demand for convenience beverages among health-conscious consumers is driving growth in the $94 billion functional beverage category. Brands have adapted to the new norm of clean label ingredients and are now disrupting the beverage aisle with innovative drinks that not only taste good but also deliver on efficacious doses of ingredients. Key to success is finding market opportunities and delivering on consumer expectations.
