Human milk oligosaccharides (HMO) helps in maintaining infant’s gut microbiota as well as promotes the growth of healthy bacteria and reduce pathogens, preventing infections and others bacterial risks. In recent past, sales of infant nutrition products have increased to a significant extent owing to the continuously rising infant population across the globe. According to WHO, the total world population is estimated to increase by approximately one billion in the next 10 years and will reach 9.5 billion by 2050. Incidentally, demand has been relatively higher to the supply of infant nutrition products. Meanwhile, sales of infant formula are also surging in some of the Asian countries such as China and India, promoting the consumption of HMO alike. Future Market Insights’ latest report reveals that the global human milk oligosaccharides market is set to surpass a valuation of US$ 76 Mn, registering a CAGR of 14.6% between 2017 and 2027. This growth will be primarily orchestrated by the increasing application of HMO in infant nutrition products.
In 2017 and beyond, the human milk oligosaccharides market in Europe is anticipated to witness significant revenue growth. Towards the end of 2027, Europe is anticipated to account for over 49% value share of the global market. Manufacturers in Europe are filing claims for regulatory approvals and product safety certifications in order to use HMO for preparing infant formulas. In North America, the HMO market is currently valued at over US$ 6 Mn and holds the second spot in terms of market size after Europe.
