Global online grocery delivery services market: Growth in demand for functional foods and beverages
The demand for functional foods and beverages is rapidly growing among consumers worldwide due to health benefits such as enhanced immune system, improved mental strength, improved heart rate, improved digestive health, hydration and electrolyte replenishing benefits, and better intestinal flora and gut function. Further, consumers are spending more on non-traditional fitness activities such as yoga and aerobics, and thus, prefer consuming functional foods and beverages as a healthy source of nutrition. This growing need and aspiration of customers regarding functional food are further propelling its demand across the globe. As these functional foods and beverages are not readily available in brick-and-mortar stores, consumers buy them online. Vendors of functional foods and beverages are also marketing their products with the help of effective labeling and product formulation. Online grocers and grocery delivery service providers are showcasing and offering these products to widen their product portfolio so as to capture more share in the global online grocery delivery services market.
“Apart from increasing e-commerce, the rapid growth in m-commerce, growing popularity of fast delivery services, and increased M&A activities and strategic alliances is expected to contribute largely to the growth of the market, during the forecast period,” says a senior analyst at Technavio.
