PROSPECTS AND OPPORTUNITIES
Interesting packaging and formats attract consumers’ attention
Demand for digestive remedies in South Africa is expected to continue growing over the forecast period. Support for the category will stem from the high number of consumers following busy and active lifestyles, as they resort to fast food or generally unhealthy diets.
Pharmacists’ advice influences purchases of digestive remedies
When local consumers have digestive issues, they tend not to visit a doctor. Instead, they initially rely on a pharmacist for advice.
Further growth potential for herbal/traditional options due to natural perception
Digestive remedies could potentially experience competition in the form of holistic health and wellness lifestyles adopted by consumers, as they look to manage their various digestive issues, such as constipation or heartburn. This can be achieved through diet, including greater fibre content or probiotics, or participating in more regular exercise, alongside reducing a reliance on fast food.
