According to Future Market Insights (FMI), the global sports drink market is expected to reach a valuation of US$ 30,634.10 Mn in 2023. Sales of sport drinks are slated to reach US$ 43,631.75 Mn by 2033, exhibiting a CAGR of 6% between 2023-2033.

According to FMI, growing demand for nutrition-filled, low-calorie sports drinks which are made up from organic ingredients, is set to drive demand in Europe. As people are becoming conscious of their health, sports drinks infused with organic ingredients are expected to gain immense popularity. This factor is further anticipated to push sales of novel sports drinks across Europe.

Consumers in the region are increasingly looking for healthy alternatives when it comes to their drinks.

Sports drinks are the ideal solution as they provide much-needed hydration and replace minerals that are lost during exercise. Increasing number of gyms and fitness clubs in the U.K., Germany, and Italy is thus expected to augur well for the Europe sports drink market in the next ten years.

Furthermore, to meet the rising demand, manufacturers in the region are striving to develop a wide range of products with enhanced nutrition, vitamins, and minerals. Some of the companies are also providing innovative sports drinks with beneficial ingredients such as caffeine or branched chain amino acids (BCAA). Low sugar options are gaining high popularity, especially among those who are counting calories or trying to follow a specific diet.

In addition to offering functional benefits, sports drinks are becoming increasingly attractive in terms of packaging and design. Numerous manufacturers across the U.K. and Germany are making efforts to create aesthetically pleasing bottles and cans, which would help them to stand out on store shelves.

In May 2022, for instance, OPERATE, an innovative nootropic, sugar-free sports drink powered by plants and filled with natural extracts, was introduced in the U.K. It is mainly formulated to help consumers operate their mind and body efficiently. The new plant-powered drink is available in three delicious and unique flavors, namely, lemon & yuzu, raspberry & cranberry, and peach & green tea.
