South Korea has been amongst the major nations for functional products in the Asia-Pacific market. The consumption of the functional food as well as the nutritional supplements in South Korea is primarily ingredient-oriented. Red Ginseng has been the major selling functional food and supplement ingredient in the country for several years and accounts for more than half of the market revenues. Apart from this, vitamin and mineral supplements, aloe and omega-3 fatty acids having also been gaining increasing market shares.
The growth of the nutraceuticals industry in South Korea is largely supported by the historical familiarity with herbal medicines and growing consumption of fortified food for health benefits. Additionally, utilizing food as medicines and practice of preventive medicines has been a part of the culture. The supportive macroeconomic environment prevailing in the developed and a high income South Korean economy has helped to fortify the revenues of the nutraceuticals industry over the years. The country is also characterized by a comparatively low level of unemployment, although the current age structure predominantly features young population. In the next ten years, the proportion of old age people is expected to soar significantly. Additionally, the large metropolitan environment of Seoul and Busan has been considered ideal for selling of the nutraceuticals products by several companies.
The marketplace of the health functional food market in South Korea is inhabited by both the domestic and international players. However, as the Korean economy is trade-oriented, a significant percentage of the ingredients and food products are imported. People have developed growing affinity towards safe and healthy food, which has been evident from the surging demand for organic and functional food in the country.
The fast ageing rate of the population in South Korea is expected to be the prime growth driver of the burgeoning growth of the nutraceuticals industry. Vitamins and other dietary supplements are anticipated to be the epicenter of the increasing traction of the nutraceutical sector in the country. This segment of nutraceuticals is expected to register the maximum growth in consumption, largely due to the rising old population of South Korea. The trend of utilizing supplements for meal-replacement, weight-loss and sports nutrition purposes is rapidly gaining acceptance and is expected to widen the scope of the market.
