DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/dmljlz/global_natural) has announced the addition of the "Global Natural Colorant and Flavor Market 2014-2018" report to their offering.
The Food and Beverages industry includes a diverse set of products such as fresh, frozen, confectionery, dairy, and processed foods, and is set to grow at a CAGR of 3-5 percent by 2014. The main factors contributing to its growth are the rise in global population, increasing demand for packaged foods, and the growing purchasing power of the population in emerging countries. The rapid economic growth in countries such as China, India and Vietnam has resulted in a significant increase in the disposable income of consumers. Moreover, the establishment of many organized retailers around the world has led to the easy availability of a variety of packaged food items. These food and beverage products contain a variety of natural food colors and flavors. Thus, the growth of the Food and Beverages industry is expected to boost the demand for natural colorants to meet the varied needs of consumers during the forecast period.
According to the report, one of the main drivers in this market is the increase in the demand for food products that contain natural flavors and colorants. This demand has resulted from the growing health-conscious population seeking to consume food and beverage products that have natural labels on the pack, as they consider them to be safer and healthier.
Further, the report states that one of the main challenges hindering the market growth is the instability of natural colors and flavors.
