Sports Nutrition in Mexico

September 2026

Sports nutrition in Mexico continues to demonstrate strong growth, driven by broader appeal beyond traditional users and rapid retail transformation. The environment is attractive for both established and new entrants, underpinned by a growing population, moderate inflation and increasing consumer expenditure, all of which fuel innovation and expansion into everyday wellness and healthy-ageing occasions. Success in sports nutrition increasingly depends on adapting portfolios to serve women, older adults and wellness-driven consumers, leveraging digital-first distribution strategies and investing in tailored product innovation, as demonstrated by the surge in plant-based and clean-label protein as well as the mainstreaming of creatine and functional supplements. Brands that prioritise direct engagement through social commerce, enhance discovery via e-commerce and align with evolving consumer needs for transparency, affordability and functional benefits are best positioned to capture share in this dynamic and rapidly evolving landscape.
