North America accounted for a major portion of the colostrum market share in 2023. In the region, the demand for colostrum is increasing owing to the rising preference for consuming nutraceuticals such as functional food and beverages and dietary supplements. The rise in health consciousness has made consumers prioritize health and nutrition and shift toward healthy functional drinks and related dietary supplements. According to the World Economic Forum, in 2022, 50% of Americans claim to consume healthy food actively, and 58% of baby boomers follow healthy eating habits. Moreover, according to an IRI survey of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) shoppers, eating healthy food is a top priority for two-thirds (63%) of 42 million people in the US. Dietary supplements and functional food and beverages containing colostrum play a pivotal role in improving the overall health of consumers. Colostrum helps boost immunity, enhance gut health, and improve athletic performance. Therefore, the growing number of benefits of colostrum and changing consumer preferences fuel the demand for colostrum-based supplements across North America. As a result, many major market players are focusing on product portfolio expansion and increasingly adopting strategic initiatives.
