2.2.1 AGING DEMOGRAPHY

Economically, aging population will have an impact on economic growth, savings, investment, consumption, and lifestyle. Socially, aging population affects health and healthcare. Japan, Singapore, Colombia, Brazil, Thailand, Sri Lanka, Tunisia, Jamaica, China, and Chile are amongst the countries that are aging fast. That means their XX+ population rate will be doubled by 2025.

Global older population is increasing by XX% every year, faster than the population as a whole. Increase in the proportion of older persons (XX+) comes with decline in the proportion of the young persons (below XX). By 2050, the number of older persons in the world will exceed the number of youngsters for the first time in history. Certain developed regions already have witnessed this reversal trend in 1998.

United Nations reported that the proportion of older persons is projected to reach XX% in 2050 from XX% in 2000. More than half of the world’s XX+ population lives in six countries: China, the United States, India, Japan, Germany, and Russia. XX+ population of the world is projected to increase by XX% between 2005 and 2030. Nearly XX% of all the older Japanese are expected to be at least XX years old by 2030. While Japan’s total population is projected to

MarketsandMarkets 12 Global Sports & Energy Drinks Market ­ By Types, Ingredients, Distribution Channels,

End-users & Top Brands Trends & Forecasts (2011 – 2016)

decrease by XX million, the population age “XX+” is projected to increase by XX million between 2006 and 2030. Russia’s and Japan’s population is expected to fall by XX% and XX% respectively as these two countries witness low fertility rates.

2.3 OPPORTUNITIES

2.3.1 RISING DEMAND FROM EMERGING COUNTRIES

Emerging or developing countries such as China and India prove to be the best new markets for sports and energy drinks. New geographies need to be tapped with favorable strategies for that particular market. Local players in this segment have already captured the existing market but again there is a scope for big players (due to their brand image) to invest in lesser known territories such as South East Asian countries. Brand value of big players helps them to augment their sales by entering newer areas. Distribution channels have to be strong enough to cater to the wide-spread market of such drinks. Huge investments have to be made on marketing and advertising such drinks.

Introducing old product to a new market would always be better than new product to new market. Proven and popular brands usually do well in new markets. Certain countries in Latin America such as Brazil are having great sales potential for such beverages. Making these beverages more visible and accessible would help in penetrating the market to a greater extent. That means these products should be made available at as many channels as possible.

Many manufacturers have the capability to penetrate this market successfully, as there would be little requirement to invest in new equipment or adapt to the company's business model. An entirely new company could enter the market on a small scale and operate a single integrated retail outlet, particularly with energy drinks. However, to appeal to the mass-consumer market, a company would need to be reasonably large, in order to obtain scale economies in production. Brand building would also be a requirement if new companies want to succeed in these emerging markets.

physical stimulation for a short period of time. Energy drinks are consumed for different reasons such as to boost energy, reduce thirst, to mix with cocktails, and as flavoring smoothies.

A helps to reduce the risk of water intoxication where electrolytes (sodium and potassium) are depleted but only water is replaced. The carbohydrates supply fuel to the muscles during exercise.

2.5 OVERVIEW

Sports and energy drinks show well-defined consumption patterns due to its proven health and nutritional benefits and rising fitness-freaky consumers. The main reason for the increasing popularity of sports drinks is the long-term health implications and ease of use offered together with packaging innovations. The worldwide economic recession affected demand of sports and energy drinks in late 2007, with consumption patterns showing signs of distress. The continued fall in rate of employment, reducing disposable incomes, decreasing household wealth, and sharply dropping per capita spends, have together caused a loss in sales from the previous levels.

Sports and energy drinks are high priced premium functional beverages market witnessing rich growth over the last decade. The United States continues to be the largest market, followed by Europe and Japan. Collectively, they account more than XX% of the global market. The U.S. sports drinks market is mature while the energy drinks segment is expected to grow at a strong rate. The European market is expected to grow at a healthy pace. U.K. and Germany are the largest regional markets. France is the fastest growing market. Japan is projected to see less moderate growth. The desire to lead healthy lives and the importance given to physical fitness is a major growth driver of this segment. Sports drinks are driven by unique product concepts, new brands, flavors, and brand extensions of popular products. This performance beverage market is now positioned as a sophisticated specialist segment of the sports nutrition market for professional athletes and body builders.

Key players in this segment are Pepsi, Coca-Cola, Danone, Hansen’s Beverage Company, Monarch Beverage Company, Red Bull, Dark Dog, GlaxoSmithKline, Extreme Beverages, Taisho Pharmaceuticals and Otsuka Pharmaceuticals. In terms of market share, “Gatorade’’ and “Red Bull” lead the sports and energy drinks segments, respectively. The Japanese market is dominated by regional players such as Taisho — the pioneering developer of brand, Otsuka Pharmaceuticals and others.

Sports and energy drinks represent the largest market for sports and fitness nutrition. Energy drinks that are targeted at low-income consumers suffered a slowdown. Future growth in consumption will be concentrated in emerging markets, such as China, India, and Latin America. The burgeoning middle-class consumers in these countries show willingness to spend on health and wellness, and are keen to adopt Western lifestyles.

Branding activities from the major players has led to the emergence of new products offering a greater range and variety of health benefits. Health and fitness is a major driver of this industry. To widen the consumer base, manufacturers have also been developing products aimed specifically towards women and children. Growth in this market will primarily be driven by rising emphasis on health and wellness, improving income levels, rising tendency to spend, speedy product innovations, and the adoption of westernization across Asian countries.

2.6 INTRODUCTION

Energy drinks are the most dynamic segment of soft drinks and remain niche in the soft drinks category. Red Bull is the global market leader in energy drinks, but its share is being decreased because of diversification of the category and rapid increase in number of other brands. However, Red Bull has recently announced their plans to enter into the Chinese market by 2012. Beverage industry has witnessed energy drinks becoming the fastest growing sector over the last decade. Also, the number of new products launch with new and innovative ingredients is on the rise.

Earlier, the energy drinks market took a highly conventional approach for new products launched across the world. In most parts of the world, new products adopted a ‘me-too’ approach, following closely in the footsteps of the market leader. The most common positioning strategy of energy drinks was to provide a mental boost, helping the consumer to fight exhaustion. With caffeine and taurine as the key ingredients, other ingredients also became standardized and synthesized. Other prominent ingredients are vitamins (A to E), specifically vitamin B. Vitamins help to increase metabolic rates and the promotion of cell growth and division in the body. Due to this, target audience for energy drinks became young males.

However, the manufacturers have adopted a softer approach to the positioning, formulation, and marketing of energy drinks rather than prescriptive approach. This shift has helped brands to distinguish among others, but increasingly in response to consumer demand for alternatives. This demand has come from the dislike for the highly sugared, over sweetened taste that became the trademark for energy drinks and a growing dislike to products that were laden with highly synthesized, but stimulating ingredients. Energy drink consumers are choosing products which do not lead to the ‘crash’.
