“The global confectionery market is booming,” comments Mark Lozano, group sales manager – confectionery at tna. “Across the word, people are looking for small bags of treats to help them momentarily escape their busy lives. In particular sugar confectioneries have become immensely popular in key growth markets like China, for example, where they now account for 60% of total confectionery sales.[1]
“One of the main reasons behind this growth is the category’s high innovation potential. There are so many different ways to innovate in sugar confectionery. In particular with gummies as these chewy treats are incredibly flexible from a production standpoint. Whether manufacturers want to introduce another layer of flavour or a new texture to their gummies or sprinkle them in a little chili powder for some extra spice, with NID as part of tna’s family of brands, we can now deliver all the technology they need to take their sugar confectionery to the next level.”
Market insights from GlobalData[2]: The global confectionery sector, valued at US$156.4 billion in 2016, is dominated by Western Europe, which accounted for 29.6% share. Led by robust growth in the Asia-Pacific and Eastern Europe regions, the sector is forecast to record a CAGR of 4.6% during 2016–2021. An improving global economy, supported by stronger than expected economic revival in developed countries, coupled with rising disposable incomes in developing countries remain the primary factor enabling consumers to indulge in more quality confectionery products.
