PROSPECTS AND OPPORTUNITIES
Cost pressures accelerate demand for local and generic brands
Value sales of digestive remedies are set to continue rising over the forecast period. Antacids are expected to remain in strong demand, with local manufacturers projected to expand their generic offerings to appeal to cost-conscious consumers.
On-the-go formats boost convenience
Convenience is becoming a key factor in purchasing decisions, with consumers seeking portable and easy-to-consume formats. Antacids are at the forefront of packaging innovation, with tablets and stick packs proving popular.
Herbal and traditional remedies expand through imports
Herbal and traditional digestive remedies are increasingly diversifying the landscape, with products imported from neighbouring countries such as Indonesia and Thailand gaining visibility. For example, Indonesia’s SidoMuncul Tolak Angin, now distributed through Watsons and Healthlane Pharmacy, is promoted as a natural aid for digestion.
