Despite notable growth in 2026, sports nutrition in Lebanon continues to be shaped by constrained consumer spending, with high inflation expected to remain at 17% and limited expansion beyond a core urban, fitness-orientated audience. The market’s growth is primarily a reflection of price increases rather than real gains in consumer access or volume, standing in contrast to neighbouring countries where stronger economies and broader consumer engagement underpin a wider uptake of sports nutrition. The persistent dominance of sports protein products highlights a lack of diversification and underlines the non-essential status of these products among the wider population. To succeed, brands must prioritise affordability, leverage smaller pack formats and strengthen online and gym-based engagement, as future growth will be defined by value-for-money propositions and the ability to adapt to a volatile economic environment while retaining trust and relevance among a highly targeted consumer base.
