Volume of packaged food in weight management is expected to cross 118,195,000 tons in 2018, reflecting a rate of over 3.4% in 2018.

Consumer shift toward healthy lifestyle has translated into a growing inclination of consumers for packaged food that offer significant health benefits with low added calories, and weight management foods are no exception. Additionally, increasing participation of individuals in fitness activities has further pushed the demand for low carb, high protein diet. Against this backdrop, demand for weight management products is likely to witness an increase in the near future.

Food labeling provides nutritional information regarding ingredients and products along with calorie intake.

This aspect has significantly fuelled the sales of packaged food in weight management” – Subject Matter Expert, Food and Beverages Domain, Fact.MR
