Discover Loss prevention solutions for sweeteners and innovative strategies from TydenBrooks in the sweetener and syrups industry.

Food and beverage is the leading application sector in terms of the use of natural sweeteners in products like soft drinks, candies, canned foods, jams, and others. The leading distribution channels

for the distribution of natural sweeteners are hypermarkets/supermarkets, convenience stores, special stores, and online retailers, among others.

The European natural sweeteners market is being driven by the growing stevia industry. Stevia is a plant-based natural sweetener derived from a plant known as stevia rebaudiana. The global demand for stevia extract was around 3.5 thousand metric tons in 2018. In 2020, the global value of stevia production reached around USD 520.32 million. The stevia industry is expected to witness healthy growth in the forecast period of 2023-2028, growing at a CAGR of 8.4% globally. The market is further estimated to attain a value of nearly USD 844.20 million by 2026.

Europe is a leader in the stevia market after the Asia Pacific. The two regions, together account for

more than three-fifths of the total global market share. Stevia extracts were approved for use in the

European Union in November 2011, and since

then there has been a rapid increase in the production of items containing stevia, particularly in the

food and beverage sector in Europe. France holds a strong position in the European stevia market for

the country approved the use of stevia

sweeteners, particularly the Reb A strain, from 2009 onwards.

In Europe, several big brands like Coca-Cola have started reformulating existing products and manufacturing

new ones upon seeing an increasing demand for stevia among consumers.Europe is dependent on imports from other

countries

to meet the growing stevia demand in the natural sweeteners industry as stevia leaves are not native

to Europe. China, being the major producer of stevia, serves as the leading stevia supplier to Europe.

The countries like Germany and France, with the biggest food industries, are the major consumers of

natural sweeteners and, thus, emerge as a major destination for stevia exportation in Europe.

The increasing rates of obesity and type 2 diabetes have fuelled the demand for low-sugar or sugar-free

sweeteners in the region. In the food and beverage sector, the demand for sports and energy drinks has

increased, further influencing

companies to manufacture them using zero-calorie sweeteners, like stevia. Also, the use of organic

products is on the rise, thus, driving the industry further. Companies like Coca-Cola reformulated

existing products like Sprite, catering to the

demand of consumers to produce stevia-based products. Also, with the success of stevia in France the

company launched several new products like Coca-Cola Life, Goba cola, and Activia Fat Free, which are

stevia-based, thus, aiding the

European natural sweeteners market.

Moreover, the increase in the demand for natural sweeteners in the pharmaceutical sector is emerging

as a key factor, further propelling the industry forward. Natural sweeteners are used to manufacture

toothpaste and health supplements.

Also, its use in the production of cosmetics has increased, which will enhance the industry's growth in

the coming years.
