Consumer Insights – Smart Food 2024
Eating typically consumes time. Ready-to-drink meal replacements (Smart Food) address this directly, promising consumers quick, enjoyable, and filling nutrition—ready to drink anytime, anywhere, in between.
And these products are gaining popularity: in 2023, 21% of meal replacement buyers purchased them regularly, with 2 out of 3 buyers having bought them multiple times, albeit irregularly.*
Retailers and manufacturers anticipate further growth, with new products entering the market.
