Rising Cases of Diabetes to Boost the Market Growth
Since chronic medical problems such as diabetes and obesity are constantly increasing owing to the growing consumption of unhealthy products containing synthetic sugars, the requirement for non-sugar and low-calorie food products is high which has led to a rise in demand for sugar free gum. In 2019, there were more than 1.1 million children and adolescents living with type 1 diabetes, as per the data released by the International Diabetes Federation (IDF). Moreover, the doctors and healthcare professionals are repeatedly advising people to shift their intake to no-sugar products in order to control the blood glucose level. Further, chewing sugar free gum is also used to prevent tooth decay and to improve oral care. These factors are anticipated to significantly expand the sugar free gum market.
Versatile Flavours and Attractive Packaging to Drive the Market Growth
Owing to oral health concerns, there is a rising consumer awareness towards attractive packaging which displays product labelling and description through pack design. Furthermore, product innovations in the form of flavour, shape, freshness and packing as well as availability of hybrid gums including mix of mint and bubblegum is fueling the growth of sugar free gum market.

Health Problems Related to Excessive Intake to Hamper the Market Growth

Further, increased consumption of artificial sweetener present can lead to chronic diarrhoea which may negatively affect the market growth. This is estimated to hinder the growth of sugar free gum market in the future.
In 2023, market players might incur losses due to huge gap in currency translation followed by contracting revenues, shrinking profit margins & cost pressure on logistics and supply chain.
Controlling Inflation has become the first priority for global economies from last quarter of 2022 and to be followed in 2023. With skewed economic situations, rise in interest rate by governments to control spending and inflation, spiked oil and gas prices, high inflation, geo-political issues including U.S. & China trade war, Russia-Ukraine conflict to intensify the global economic issues.
