PROSPECTS AND OPPORTUNITIES
Rising focus on active lifestyles to sustain demand

Digital transformation and influencer engagement to shape competition
The sports nutrition market is set to become more competitive as global brands and local players intensify efforts to capture share. Social media will remain a crucial battleground, with influencers playing an increasingly central role in driving consumer awareness and trust.
Growing opportunities for plant-based and sustainable sports nutrition
Segmentation will play a greater role in category growth, with rising demand for plant-based and vegan products reflecting Bulgarians’ concern for both health and environmental issues. Plant-based protein powders, bars, and RTD options are set to gain visibility, supported by growing consumer awareness of animal welfare and sustainable consumption.
