Fitness
centers and health clubs act as central distribution centers for
sports supplements for various consumer groups including
bodybuilders, athletes, and recreational users. In the recent years,
the number of health clubs has increased all around the world,
offering huge market potential for the growth of sports supplements
products.
With
developments in the field of e-commerce, sports supplements are sold
directly to end customers. A busy life schedule is influencing
consumers to shift their purchasing pattern towards online shopping.
At present, almost all consumer goods are available online for
purchase. Lack of time for shopping has influenced this shift. The
total number of digital shoppers in the U.S was 191.1 million in 2010
and this is expected to reach 215.1 million by 2018. Online shopping
is gaining popularity and this is expected to increase online sales
of nutritional products including sports supplements. The presence of
various blogs and websites dedicated to healthcare articles increases
consumer awareness about products available in the market. Online
websites such as Amazon.com and Vitacost.com have grown tremendously
in terms of services offered in the recent years. Such trend is
expected to increase the demand for sports supplements in the coming
years. However lack of proper regulatory bodies in sports supplements
industry can hamper the growth of sports supplements market.
North
America holds the largest market share for sports supplements,
followed by Europe and Asia Pacific. The U.S. holds the largest
market share in sports supplements in North America. According to the
United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UNDESA),
the urban population in Asia Pacific countries was 1.9 billion in
2013, and this is expected to reach 3.3 billion by 2050. Increasing
urban population in Asia Pacific is expected to provide ample growth
opportunity to various market players in the sports supplements
industry. However, change in the purchasing pattern of sports
supplements in developing nations can challenge the monopoly of the
developed market.
The
sports supplements market is fragmented with presence of several
players including NBTY, Inc., MaxiNutrition, Glanbia Plc , GNC
Holdings, Inc., Universal Nutrition, Creative Edge Nutrition, Inc.,
Herbalife, Ltd., Plethico Pharmaceuticals Limited, Enervit S.p.A and
