Key factors responsible for the fructose market growth include rising global population, increasing demand for low-calorie food products, and its potential benefits over table sugar. Its low glycemic index and wide applicability in the food processing industry also boosted the market growth. Moreover, millennials in the developed countries are more focused on a healthy balanced diet also favoring market growth for fructose.
However, fluctuations in raw material prices and rising production costs are expected to restrain the market growth for fructose. A rise in the cost of production directly influences the final product price. In September 2019, Tate and Lyle increased the price of its offerings in the North America region’s food & beverage business due to an increase in production costs. The same was quoted by Cargill in its annual reporting, where it saw a decline in revenue due to a rise in the cost of raw material procured.
Moreover, through recent research it being predicted that high fructose corn syrup can increase the risk for diabetes, weight gain, high blood pressure, cholesterol level, fatty liver, and mental stress. Owing to this, the consumers could shift towards potential alternatives such as raw honey, stevia, and coconut milk. Hence, product substitutes like this are likely to hamper fructose market growth.
