PROSPECTS AND OPPORTUNITIES
Natural positioning and affordability to drive future growth
Herbal/traditional products are well positioned for strong growth over the forecast period, supported by a deep-rooted cultural preference for natural remedies. Economic challenges and high healthcare costs have reinforced reliance on affordable, unpackaged herbal treatments, but as conditions improve, consumers are expected to shift toward packaged herbal/traditional products that combine convenience, safety and scientific credibility.
Product innovation expands presence across categories
There remains significant scope for expanding herbal/traditional options within major consumer health categories. Digestive remedies is a key opportunity, as consumers are already accustomed to using herbal brews (such as agbo) for digestive relief.
Holistic health trends should strengthen consumer trust and premiumisation
As health and wellness awareness deepens, Nigerians are increasingly seeking holistic products that deliver both therapeutic and preventive benefits with minimal side effects. This shift is expected to enhance the credibility of herbal/traditional products, particularly those that incorporate transparency, quality assurance and modern packaging.
