概要

世界のハードキャンディの市場規模は、2023年の101億9,000万米ドルから2031年に176億4,000万米ドルに達すると予測され、予測期間の2024年~2031年にCAGRで7.10%の成長が見込まれます。

市場成長の主な要因は、子供と若者の人口の増加、普遍的な魅力、菓子需要の増加、外出先での軽食の人気の高まりです。National Confectioners Associationが2024年4月に発表した調査によると、米国に住む人々は毎週2~3回キャンディを消費しており、ハードキャンディ市場の成長を促進しています。

さらに、市場では天然成分を使用した砂糖不使用の選択肢の成長が見られています。そのため、ビタミンやその他の栄養素を配合した機能性キャンディの成長が促進されています。主要企業は、品質や風味に妥協することなく、より健康的な代替品を発売することで、健康志向の消費者に対応してきました。

製品の革新は市場成長の主な要因です。市場で提供される製品のほとんどが似たようなものであるため、メーカーが製品を差別化し新しいものを提供することで顧客の関心を引き付けるには、技術革新が不可欠となるからです。メーカー各社は、新しい色や形式、フレーバーを導入するため、絶えず技術革新を行っています。例えば2023年1月、Hololollyはホログラフィックロリポップを発売しました。このロリポップはイソマルトを使用し、銀河をテーマにデザインされました。この製品に革新性を持たせるため、同社はレーザーエッチング技術を使ってエフェクトを作り出しました。

また、ロリポップは、その魅力的なデザインと多彩なフレーバーにより、ハードキャンディ市場で絶大な人気を博しています。ロリポップは、あらゆる年齢層の垣根を越えた菓子であるため、ハードキャンディ市場で特別な地位を占めています。さらに、文化や地域の選好の影響は、ハードキャンディ市場の成長軌道を形成する上で重要な役割を果たしています。特定のフレーバーは地域特有のものであるため、主要企業による製品に差別化が生まれ、より広範な消費者を獲得しています。さらに、入手のしやすさと外出先での間食の選択肢であることにより、小売流通チャネルにおける優位性も見られています。

フルーツフレーバーが優位を示す

フルーツフレーバーのハードキャンディは、多様なフレーバー、鮮やかな色、消費者に受ける爽やかなフレーバープロファイルの入手可能性により、優位性を示しています。フルーツフレーバーのキャンディは、ストロベリー、オレンジ、レモンなどの定番フレーバーであれ、パイナップル、キウイ、スイカなどの珍しいフレーバーであれ、消費者に多様な選択肢を提供しています。

優位性の大きな理由の1つは、子供から大人まで、あらゆる層の消費者を含む幅広い層の共感を呼ぶ普遍的な魅力にあります。さらに、フルーツフレーバーのハードキャンディは、フルーツのような自然な風味を提供し、本格的な味を好む消費者に受けています。

2024年4月、Sweety Treaty Co.は最新のハードキャンディ、Jolly Puffsを発売しました。このキャンディは、あらゆる年齢層の消費者においしい間食体験を提供します。これらのハードキャンディは、同社の革新へのコミットメントと、消費者に新しいものを提供しようという熱意を示しています。

若年人口が成長を促進

若年人口の増加は、市場の成長を促進する上で重要な役割を果たしています。消費パターンの変化に伴い、若年人口は世界のハードキャンディ市場の成長を促進する重要な人口層として浮上しています。ハードキャンディは、その手頃な価格と消費者のダイナミックな選好に対応する多様なフレーバープロファイルにより、消費者に受けています。

さらに、若い消費者の間食への傾倒と、ハードキャンディが楽しく便利な選択肢であるという認識が、この製品の需要の向上に寄与しています。新しい食感やフレーバーを試したいという若者の関心は、主要企業に革新的な製品を導入するよう促し、消費者の注目と忠誠心を獲得することで、市場でのプレゼンスを高めるのに役立っています。
