PROSPECTS AND OPPORTUNITIES
Natural health trends will reshape industry trajectory
Category growth over the forecast period is expected to be stagnant, as local consumers increasingly shift toward natural weight loss methods such as healthy eating and exercise. Declining demand for products such as meal replacements and supplements is likely to hinder innovation and discourage new entrants to the category.
Medical weight loss will continue to challenge the industry
The rising popularity of GLP-1 medications like Wegovy and Ozempic is transforming the weight management industry by shifting consumer preference toward medically supervised, evidence-based treatments. As these therapies become more accessible and widely recognised, they will increasingly challenge the relevance and share of traditional weight loss products and programmes.
Rise of holistic and preventative lifestyles may see brands align with government-backed weight loss programmes
Ireland’s Healthy Eating Active Living Plan (2023–2027) promotes preventive care and lifestyle changes to combat obesity, posing new challenges for weight management brands as public health initiatives gain traction over commercial solutions. As local consumers increasingly turn to government-endorsed programs, brands may need to adapt by aligning with national health goals and demonstrating tangible health benefits.
