Trends and Forces Shaping the World of Consumer Health

Author: Louise Nicholas

Date published: 12 Mar 2010

In response to the consumer trend of using a variety of products to ensure good health, we have combined OTC healthcare, vitamins and dietary supplements, sports nutrition and slimming products into one platform - Passport: Consumer Health. Join us as we review the performance of these four categories and discuss the trends and forces shaping the world of consumer health.

Featuring:

Global Consumer Health Research Manager - Samantha Chmelik
Consumer Health Industry Analyst - Monica Feldman

Our experts will highlight:

The impact of public health issues like the H1N1 virus, obesity and tobacco bans
The expansion of retail distribution, the impact of private label and the implications of mergers and acquistions
Analysis of import bans, local production incentives, ingredient contamination and an increasingly rigrous regulatory environment reshaping the consumer health industry
A discussion on the implications of these events and potential opportunities

Did you know...

• The global share of private label/generic products expanded from 5.3% in 2008 to 5.6% in 2009

• The National Health Expenditure (NHE) in the US will represent an estimated 20% of GDP in 2018, up two percentage points from 2009 according to the US Department of Health & Human Services

• Retail sales of vitamins and dietary supplements will keep growing with the support of public health initiatives on nutrition and health and wellness. As a result, Euromonitor projects that constant retail sales will top US$76 billion at the end of 2014

• In Indonesia the broad consumer base of children, representing an estimated 27% of the total population, provides excellent opportunities for pharmaceutical companies to expand sales through the introduction of child-specific products
