The global weight management market is on track for robust growth, projected to reach approximately USD 725.6 billion during the forecast period from 2022 to 2032, reflecting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.7%. This anticipated growth is largely attributed to the rising adoption of sedentary lifestyles, which is increasing the demand for efficient weight management solutions.
In the previous year, the market experienced a notable incline, achieving a year-on-year growth rate of 8.3% from 2021 to 2022, bringing its value to USD 345.5 billion. The market was valued at USD 319 billion in 2021, showcasing a strong upward trajectory fueled by a growing awareness of health and wellness.
The rising adoption of sedentary lifestyles, coupled with increasing rates of obesity and associated health conditions, has led to a surge in demand for efficient weight management solutions. Consumers are increasingly seeking weight loss programs, fitness regimes, and dietary products that can help them maintain a healthy lifestyle.
This growth is largely driven by the increasing prevalence of sedentary lifestyles, which is fueling the demand for effective weight management solutions. As more individuals seek to address weight-related health concerns, the need for comprehensive and efficient weight management systems is becoming more critical.
In the period from 2021 to 2022, the market experienced a noteworthy Year-on-Year (Y-o-Y) growth rate of 8.3%, culminating in a valuation of US$ 345.5 Billion. This robust growth follows the market’s standing at US$ 319 Billion in 2021, emphasizing the sector’s resilience and continuous evolution.
For example, in 2019, franchise owners in Metro Detroit unveiled a new Crunch Fitness gym in Waterford Township, marking the fifth fitness center established by the company in addition to its other branches in Farmington Hills, Westland, Dearborn, and Taylor. These developments highlight the region’s potential for significant market expansion in the upcoming years.
In the preceding year, from 2021 to 2022, the market demonstrated robust year-on-year (Y-o-Y) growth at an impressive rate of 8.3%, culminating in a total valuation of US$ 345.5 billion. Notably, as of 2021, the Global Weight Management Industry already boasted a substantial worth, valued at US$ 319 billion.
This significant market expansion underscores the growing awareness and commitment to maintaining a healthy weight, as individuals increasingly seek innovative solutions to address their weight-related concerns.
As per the Institute of Health Metric and Evaluation, 30% of the world’s population is obese. Obese is one of the major health challenges in developed and developing countries. Also, the rising volume of bariatric surgeries and the rising adoption of online weight loss & management programs are anticipated to positively influence the industry in the forecast period.
The growing prevalence of obesity among the expanding population is expected to propel the market expansion during the forecast period. As per the World Obesity Atlas 2022, one billion people globally, including 1 in 5 women and 1 in 7 men, will be living with obesity by 2030. This significant rise in the number of obese patients is anticipated to drive demand for an efficient weight management system. Further, growing awareness about weight management and obesity among developing nations is expected to drive market growth in the coming period.
Increasing strategic collaborations of players with each other are expected to drive market growth during the forecast period. In September 2019, Currax Pharmaceutical disclosed the acquisition of Nalpropion Pharmaceuticals. This acquisition resulted in the addition of Contrave anti-obesity medication to Currax’s product portfolio. Similarly, in November 2019, Novo Nordisk collaborated with UNICEF to prevent children from obesity. Such partnerships among players are expected to benefit the industry growth during the forecast period.
Lack of awareness regarding obesity and the inability to afford premium health club memberships among developing countries are expected to impact the market negatively in the forthcoming period. As per IQVIA, only 2% of the total obese population is treated with prescribed medicines. Further, the presence of a limited number of market players is another cause hindering the expansion. However, rising disposable income and increasing awareness about the alternatives for weight loss and management can propel market growth in the forecast period.
