Sugar confectionery is projected to experience continuous growth in both retail volume and current value terms throughout the forecast period. However, this growth will primarily be driven by the largest category, pastilles, gummies, jellies and chews.
Although the demand for zero-sugar and low sugar options has been growing in sugar confectionery, persistent concerns regarding the safety of such products have emerged. Recent posts on social media platforms, particularly those frequented by parents, have raised alarm about children experiencing stomach aches and diarrhoea after consuming zero-sugar jellies that use sugar alcohols such as maltitol and sorbitol instead of traditional sugar.
The outlook for pastilles, gummies, jellies and chews in South Korea is promising, with expected growth in both retail volume and current value terms over the forecast period. This can be attributed to shifting consumer preferences, as more people are moving away from traditional gum and seeking out confectionery options with diverse flavours and textures.
