The non-alcoholic beverages market size is expected to grow from US$ 1,327.11 billion in 2022 to US$ 1,902.85 billion by 2028. It is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 6.2% from 2022 to 2028.

Carbonated soft drinks, bottled waters, juices & nectars, dairy-based and dairy alternative beverages, RTD tea and coffee, and energy drinks are the different types of non-alcoholic beverages available in the market. The sugar-free category is gaining significant traction among consumers due to the rise in health concerns and the high prevalence of obesity, diabetes, and heart diseases in various countries across the globe. Functional drinks and fortified beverages are witnessing high demand due to the growing focus on health and nutrition. Non-alcoholic malt beverages and premixes are widely consumed in Middle Eastern countries such as Saudi Arabia, Iran, and the UAE owing to the strict regulations on alcoholic beverage consumption and malt beverages getting halal certifications. This factor is fueling the growth of the non-alcoholic malt beverages segment in the global non-alcoholic beverages market

In 2021, Asia Pacific held the largest revenue share of the global non-alcoholic beverages market. Major factors driving the market in Asia Pacific are increasing health awareness among consumers, high demand for alternative dairy beverages, and rising popularity of natural and organic fruit juices. In countries such as Japan and South Korea, the majority of the population is lactose intolerant. This factor is boosting the popularity of dairy alternative beverages in the countries. Further, the Asia Pacific non-alcoholic beverages market is lucrative owing to the presence of a potential consumer base, strong demand for healthy beverages, and extensive retail landscape. The NOLO (no/low alcoholic beers, spirits, and cocktails) category is experiencing a significant demand in Asia Pacific due to changing consumption habits and rising consumer focus on healthy eating and drinking. Therefore, many emerging companies that offer non-alcoholic or low-alcoholic beers and spirits are expanding their footprints across Asia Pacific. For instance, Sipfree, an online shopping platform for non-alcoholic beers, spirits, and wines, was launched in Hong Kong in January 2020, and despite the COVID-19 outbreak, the sales of Sipfree increased considerably. Such expansions are expected to open lucrative opportunities in the Asia Pacific non-alcoholic beverages market growth over the forecast period.

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Non-Alcoholic Beverages Market

In the pre-pandemic period, the non-alcoholic beverages market was mainly driven by high demand for healthy drinks and on-the-go beverages. However, due to the outbreak of COVID-19 in 2020, many industries faced unprecedented challenges. The food and beverage manufacturers witnessed a slow growth in the initial phase of the pandemic due to the shutdown of manufacturing units and supply chain disruptions. However, a shift in consumer lifestyle, a rise in preference for healthy dietary practices, and an increase in the health-conscious population have substantially promoted the demand for non-alcoholic beverages. The demand for plant-based beverages such as soy, almond, and coconut milk increased two-fold after the pandemic, as consumers believe that plant-based beverages offer more nutritional value than conventional ones. According to the Mintel report published in June 2020, 25% of the surveyed consumers in the UK agreed that a vegan diet seemed appealing due to the pandemic. These factors had a positive impact on the non-alcoholic beverages market growth.

The health and wellness trends were triggered after the COVID-19 outbreak. Consumers are engaging in various fitness activities such as yoga, jogging, and cycling to stay healthy. This factor is expected to provide the strong potential to the non-alcoholic beverages market, especially in the energy and sports drinks space, in the coming years.

Surging Adoption of Sports Drinks to Drive Non-Alcoholic Beverages Market

Nutrition plays a significant role in improving sports performance. Athletes and sportspersons must follow adequate nutrition to meet their daily energy and nutrients demand. Along with professional athletes and sportspersons, many people are engaged in daily physical activity to maintain their overall health. The number of fitness enthusiasts increased in recent years due to increased health and wellness concerns. Sports drinks replenish the level of electrolytes, water, and energy lost during exercise and physical activities. These drinks typically contain carbohydrates, potassium, sodium, magnesium, and calcium that serve to rehydrate, replenish glycogen stores, and delay fatigue after exercise. The rising health and fitness concerns and an increasing number of sports enthusiasts are the key factors driving the sales of sports drinks globally. Thus, the rising adoption of sports drinks is significantly driving the non-alcoholic beverages market.

The carbonated soft drinks segment held the largest share of the global non-alcoholic beverages market in 2021, and the dairy alternative beverages segment is expected to grow at the fastest CAGR over the forecast period.
