Market Overview
The Europe sports nutrition market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 8% during the forecasted period (2021 - 2026).
Although the COVID-19 pandemic continues to transform the growth of various industries, the immediate impact of the outbreak is varied. While a few players like Glanbia Plc. have registered a drop in demand and revenue (around 8.9%), numerous others have remained unscathed and showed promising growth opportunities. Furthermore, consumers have become more health-conscious and aware due to the impact of the pandemic, and hence, one of the major factors driving this growth prospect is an increase in demand for variants of protein bars, dietary supplements, and sports drinks among the core users and non-traditional users.

Furthermore, customers who are recreationally active are opting for some other kind of sports nutrition products, to complement their work-out sessions and get purified nutrients that are effective in producing the desired physique. Therefore, the advances in sports nutrition products is one of the major factors driving the market. Additionally, the market studied is also driven by the widespread penetration that these products achieved over the past few years.

Increasing Consumption of Sports Nutrition in United Kingdom
The United Kingdom sports nutrition market is driven by the widespread penetration of sports nutrition products, wherein health-promoting products, sports drinks, and dietary supplements gained retail space in the market. However, some players are focusing on sports drinks in new formats, such as tabs and gels, which are easy to transport and consume while on the go. Furthermore, the growing trend of consuming plant-based and vegan supplements, clean-label products, and sustainable packaging solutions, is expected to accelerate the market growth of sports nutrition, and positively impact the annual per-capita spending on sports nutrition.
