Electrolyte Mixes Global Market Report 2024

Electrolytes are minerals with an electric charge crucial for regulating body functions such as blood pressure and muscle contraction. Electrolyte powders play a key role in replenishing essential vitamins and minerals in the body, offering more electrolytes with fewer sugars and calories compared to regular sports beverages.

The primary product types in electrolyte mixes include RTD beverages (ready-to-drink), electrolyte powders, tablets, and others. RTD beverages are pre-packaged single-serve drinks available for immediate consumption after purchase. These beverages find applications in energy drinks, medical solutions, and other sectors, and are distributed through supermarkets, hypermarkets, convenience stores, pharmacies, online retail, and other channels.

The electrolyte mixes market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $36.56 billion in 2023 to $40.32 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.3%. The historical growth in the electrolyte market can be attributed to several factors, including increasing consumer awareness of electrolyte-based products, robust economic growth in emerging markets, the impact of digital media marketing and social media, and a growing number of health-conscious consumers.

The electrolyte mixes market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $61.3 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.0%. Projected growth is driven by increased organic food consumption, demand for immunity-boosting beverages, and the trend of digitization. Key trends include product focus on women and millennials, clean labels, smart brands, innovative flavors and packaging, ready-to-drink electrolyte mixes, and a preference for vegan and plant-based functional drinks.

The anticipated growth of the electrolyte mixes market in the forecast period is closely tied to the expanding health and fitness industry. Entities, whether individuals, organizations, or institutions, that prioritize exercise, wellness, and overall body maintenance fall under the umbrella of the fitness industry. This sector has witnessed remarkable growth, driven by the increasing participation in exercise activities and a rising demand for products such as electrolyte mixes, essential for supporting crucial biological functions. As of 2022, data from the Sports & Fitness Industry Association (SFIA), a US-based industry association, revealed that 237 million US citizens engaged in at least one sport, marking a 1.9% increase from 2021. Notably, cardio kickboxing recorded the highest year-on-year surge, experiencing an 8.5% increase from 2021 to 2022. Consequently, the upswing in the health and fitness sector acts as a key catalyst for the expansion of the electrolyte mixes market.

The rising demand for local, sustainable, and organic food production is expected to exert a positive influence on the electrolyte mixes market in the forecast period. The emphasis on organic food production aligns with consumer priorities centered around health, environmental conservation, and animal welfare. Consumers are increasingly discerning about the methods used in food cultivation and preparation, demonstrating a willingness to invest in products perceived as healthier. Across Europe, the demand for organic produce exceeds local production capacities, leading to a significant import rate, particularly for fruits and vegetables. For instance, in 2021, the UK witnessed a 15% increase in organic food and drink sales compared to the previous year. This growing preference for organic products is anticipated to have a favorable impact on the electrolyte mixes market, considering the relatively higher cost associated with organic foods compared to conventional alternatives.

Functional ready-to-drink (RTD) beverages emerge as an ideal solution, with a primary focus on capturing the attention of millennial consumers. Effectively engaging this demographic through appealing packaging and compelling brand narratives positions these RTD beverages as a convenient means for millennials to embrace a healthier lifestyle. Once predominantly oriented toward the youth market and affordability, the RTD category has experienced a resurgence characterized by lifestyle-driven launches, diversified product development, and meticulously crafted packaging. Features such as low calorie and low alcohol by volume (ABV), an emphasis on natural ingredients, the popularity of canned formats, increasingly sophisticated flavor profiles, and Instagram-friendly brand identities have seamlessly integrated RTDs into consumers' health-centric lifestyles, often rendering them aspirational. A case in point is Kyani, Inc.'s June 2022 announcement of Kyani Electo, a groundbreaking electrolyte drink mix that combines essential minerals for hydration with a proprietary NR-8 polyphenol blend supporting nitric oxide regeneration-an integral element across Kyani's product line.

The landscape of sports beverages reflects a heightened emphasis on natural ingredients and clean-label formulations, resonating strongly with sports consumers. While these terms lack a universally accepted definition, they have become prominent marketing claims within the sports drink sector. Clean labels present a notable opportunity to address consumer preferences for minimally processed and easily recognizable ingredients. Although lacking a standardized definition, a clean label implies a commitment to transparency in claims by manufacturers, serving as an alternative to 'natural' claims. Notably, Gatorade's February 2022 introduction of Gatorade Fit, targeting 'nutritionally discerning athletes' who avoid added sugar in sports drinks, exemplifies this strategy. Featuring bright, clean labels emphasizing hydration cues and ingredients, the product aligns with Gatorade's branding. In Europe, the proportion of food and beverage launches incorporating ethical or environmental claims rose from 27% to 38% between 2017 and 2021. The optimal approach to a clean label combines visual cleanliness with a clear ingredient list, delivering on promises made on the label to meet consumer expectations. Ultimately, this consumer-centric approach defines the most effective strategy for clean labels.

In November 2021, Coca-Cola revealed a $5.6 billion acquisition to obtain the remaining 85% stake in the sports drink brand BodyArmor, which it did not previously own. Coca-Cola initially invested in a 15% stake in BodyArmor. Positioned as a healthier beverage choice with a focus on hydration, BodyArmor distinguishes itself through the use of coconut water, prioritizing sugar over high fructose corn syrup, and emphasizing low sodium, high potassium levels, and the absence of artificial colors. Bodyarmor SuperDrink is an American sports drink.
