Finlays launches The Wellbeing Collection – our premium tea extracts range helping brand owners tap into the trend for natural, functional and sustainable products
The rising trend for food and beverages that don’t just taste great but also meet a range of health and wellbeing needs shows no signs of slowing.
Whether for gut health, focus, relaxation or simply feeling virtuous for buying products that align with their values, consumers don’t just want enjoyable products, they want functional products, products with a story and products that offer a little taste of an aspirational lifestyle.
A healthy opportunity for brand owners
Within the total wellness economy, healthy-eating, nutrition and weight-loss products are valued at $700 billion per year [i]. This is growing and at Finlays, we estimate the potential global value of healthy and functional beverages to exceed $300 billion by 2024 – more than one third of all beverages consumed worldwide[ii].
And when you consider that two thirds (65%) of consumers are willing to pay more for beverages with an associated sustainability claim [iii], the opportunity for beverage brand owners is clear.
Introducing The Wellbeing Collection, by Finlays
