Market Trends of Organic Beverage Industry
Health-conscious consumers are increasingly demanding organic beverages
Globally, there is an increase in demand for organic beverages as consumers are becoming health-conscious and prefer beverages that are free from flavoring agents, preservatives, and synthetic pesticide-free. With changing consumer tastes and health benefits, consumers are increasingly interested in innovative and evolving flavors. Instead of drinking other carbonated drinks, consumers are switching to organic beverages. Organic fruits and vegetable juice are becoming more popular due to their high nutrient content.
Manufacturers are focusing on new product developments by bringing various blends of organic flavors to attract the consumer base. For instance, in January 2022, Drake's Organic Spirits introduced a new BOXTAIL flavor: Drake's Perfect Margarita BOXTAIL. It joins Drake's line of ready-to-drink (RTD) cocktails including the Minted Mojito, Watermelon-Tini, Mango Punch, and Black Cherry Limeade. Further, with an increase in supportive policies from various countries toward organic business, the market for organic beverages is expected to grow further during the forecast period.
North America is the Largest Market
North America remains to be the largest market for organic beverages due to the shift in consumer interest toward natural and clean-label products. In the United States, organic products, including beverages, have shifted from being a lifestyle choice to being consumed at least occasionally by the majority of Americans. Organic fruit and vegetable juices continued to perform well as consumers become more aware of the growing process as well as certifications such as USDA, which is driving them to go for beverages from organic sources rather than conventional ones. With the number of private-label beverage manufacturers entering the segment, the market for organic beverages is projected to grow further during the forecast period. Moreover, Increasing awareness levels for organic products among consumers and continuous launches of new product variants are expected to support the organic beverage market across the North American region.
