Sales of vitamins are expected to see a small decline in retail volume and value terms (at constant 2023 prices) over the forecast period, albeit sales will remain significantly higher than pre-pandemic levels. While overall sales are expected to decline, vitamin B is projected to deliver modest growth in value and volume terms, with sales expected to continue benefiting from the growing base of consumers aged over 65.
Multivitamins positioned for general health are set to see a more positive outlook over the forecast period with consumer purchasing power expected to recover in the mid-term. Due to the challenging economic environment Italians are currently focusing on personal health needs within vitamins and dietary supplements, with many people cutting out non-essential products to save money.
Brick and mortar pharmacies is the most important distribution channel for vitamins and dietary supplements in Italy, but retail e-commerce is set to gain further share over the forecast period. In 2022, e-commerce saw a slowdown in sales as Italians returned to store-based retailers, but sales have started to accelerate again in 2023, as consumers have increasingly combined offline with online shopping for convenience and to obtain the best value.
