The growth observed in the historical period can be attributed to the expansion of the food and beverage industry, increased activities in the pharmaceutical sector, higher consumption of convenience foods, a rise in the popularity of sports and energy drinks, and an increased demand for sugar substitutes.
The dextrose market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $8.49 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.8%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be linked to an increasing demand in the confectionery industry, the expanding market for functional food and beverages, a rising adoption in animal feed, growing applications in the pharmaceutical sector, and the continued expansion of the biofuel industry. Noteworthy trends expected in the forecast period include advancements in biotechnology, innovations in clean-label formulations, the emergence of plant-based dextrose, the development of customized dextrose solutions, and collaborative efforts focused on product innovation.
The anticipated growth of the dextrose market is expected to be propelled by the expanding processed food and convenience food industries. Processed food, defined as any food altered during preparation, and convenience food, characterized by quick and convenient preparation and storage options, are driving the demand for dextrose. Dextrose is extensively utilized as a sweetener, bulking agent, and energy source in processed and convenience foods, contributing to the overall growth of the dextrose market. For example, in 2022, the United States Department of Agriculture reported a total value of $38 billion for processed food products exported from the US, marking a 10.96% increase from $34.24 billion in 2021. Additionally, Canada and Mexico exported processed food products valued at $11.43 billion and $5.65 billion, respectively, in 2022. Consequently, the growing processed food and convenience food industries are key drivers of the dextrose market's expansion.
The increasing pharmaceutical industry is also anticipated to contribute to the growth of the dextrose market. The pharmaceutical sector involves the discovery, development, and production of drugs and medicines by governmental and private entities. Dextrose, a form of glucose, finds applications in the pharmaceutical industry, particularly in intravenous administration in hospitals, providing a source of energy, managing hypoglycemia, and supporting hydration. As of May 2021, IQVIA Inc., a US-based pharmaceutical company, projected that the total expenditure on pharmaceuticals in the US is expected to range between $380 and $400 billion by 2025, up from $359 billion in 2020, reflecting a compound annual growth rate of 0-3%. Hence, the growing pharmaceutical industry plays a significant role in propelling the growth of the dextrose market.
Product innovations emerge as a prominent trend gaining traction in the dextrose market. Leading companies within the dextrose market are actively pursuing inventive formulations in sugar and starch substitutes to secure their positions, driving the creation of cutting-edge products.
