EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Health and wellness in 2021: The big picture


Following a slight pandemic-induced slowdown in growth in 2020, health and wellness
recovered to a higher current value growth rate in 2021, as Australian consumers began to
emerge from lockdown. Consumers were more health-conscious than prior to the pandemic,
with a greater awareness of their own mortality. The lockdowns, and consequent lack of
physical activities, also had consequences for consumers’ health, with the result that many
Australians were drawn to health and wellness products in order to return to their previous
physical shape. The concerns of Australians with their own wellness were not confined to their
physical self, as the pandemic was also mentally and psychologically straining. This provided an
additional incentive for consumers to embrace health and wellness products that provide stress-
reducing characteristics, such as fruit/herbal teas.

2021 key trends


Health and wellness packaged food experienced solid growth in 2020 and 2021, with free
from performing particularly well. The most dynamic growth rates were seen amongst foods
promoted as being free from meat, as a growing number of younger Australians have embraced
vegetarianism and veganism, largely due to concerns about the carbon emissions produced by
meat and dairy production. Organic packaged food and beverages also recovered, particularly
in hot drinks, with brands such as Unilever’s Pukka making gains in fruit/herbal tea, capitalising
on consumers’ need for soothing beverages during stressful times.
Fortified/functional experienced a strong comeback in 2021, after an absence of growth
during the first year of the pandemic. Fortified/functional beverages is predominately made up of
energy drinks and sports drinks, both of which are largely sold through on-the-go channels,
which were largely closed in 2020. They recovered over 2021, however, as many younger
consumers – particularly those in the gaming community – embraced energy drinks as a key
component of their pandemic lifestyle. BFY reduced sugar beverages also performed well, as
major players in soft drinks took measures to meet their Sugar Reduction Pledge of reducing
sugar content by 20% between 2015 and 2025.

Competitive landscape
Coca-Cola Europacific Partners remained the largest player in health and wellness in 2021,
as it – and other major soft drinks companies, such as Schweppes Australia – attempted to
meet the Sugar Reduction Pledge, to reduce the sugar content of their beverages by an
average of 20% between 2015 and 2025. Meeting this pledge requires either the reformulation
of the full-sugar variants, or a resolute effort to focus their marketing on their reduced sugar
SKUs, with most manufacturers choosing the latter.
Major players in the fortified/functional category include Groupe Danone, due to its strength in
milk formula, and Frucor Suntory Australia, due to its strength in energy drinks, specifically with
the V brand. Major players in breakfast cereals, such as Kellogg (Australia) and The Sanitarium
Health Food Co (Australasian Conference Association), also have a strong presence, although
one that is fading as Australians pivot away from eating breakfast.

Retailing developments
Health and wellness was buffeted by the COVID-19 pandemic and associated lockdowns, as
several previously popular retail channels were effectively closed for long periods of time across
much of the country, particularly the highly populated areas of Sydney and Melbourne. On-the-
go channels were particularly impacted, as consumers were spending more time at home and
consequently had less need for on-the-go snacks or beverages. Thus, it was supermarkets and
e-commerce that saw major gains.
Given the wider range of products offered by supermarkets and e-commerce, the pandemic
gave smaller brands greater exposure than usual, leading to fluctuations in the competitive
landscape. Many of the new up-and-coming brands promoted themselves as health and
wellness products. Companies such as Nexba Beverages (which offers sugar-free products),
Vegie Chip Co (which offers gluten-free products) and Soda Press Company (which offers
organic products) consequently made significant gains.

What next for health and wellness?


Health and wellness is set to continue to see current value growth over the forecast period,
with a higher increase coming from HW beverages. Consumers concerned about their health
are less likely to purchase HW packaged food over the forecast period, as they are instead
migrating towards fresh food. HW packaged food was preferred prior to the pandemic, as
consumers valued the convenience that it offered. As more Australians work from home over
the forecast period, and thus avoid the wasted time of commuting, they will have more time to
cook their own meals, hampering growth for HW packaged food. Meanwhile, HW beverages will
continue to perform solidly, as major players in soft drinks attempt to meet their Sugar
Reduction Pledge, to reduce sugar content by 20% between 2015 and 2025. Accomplishing this
will require significant growth in BFY reduced sugar beverages.
Consumers’ concern for their health will continue to rise, as they attempt to get in shape after
stagnating during the pandemic. However, some lifestyles that were gaining ground prior to the
pandemic may find it difficult to pick up their previous momentum. Interest in veganism, for
example, inspired by Extinction Rebellion and concern about the carbon emissions of meat and
dairy production, may slow as consumers are distracted by other troubling world events.
