Flavour innovation is especially important for brands to win over consumers in gum, as it is this that sets them apart from other brands. Currently, spearmint is the leading flavour in South Africa, and for good reason, as it freshens the breath.
Rises cases of obesity and heart disease are causing increasing concern for the South African government, as these health problems are increasing the burden on an already constrained healthcare system. Current legislation is under review to determine how to ensure proper nutrition and less reliance on ultra-processed foods.
