Emerging Trends Enhancing Growth Prospects in the Low-calorie Food Sector
Industry players are increasingly focusing on developing novel, healthier snack alternatives, such as chickpea-based products, to provide better nutritional profiles compared to traditional snacks. Healthier snack options typically aim to reduce calories, fats, salts, and sugars while delivering added nutritional benefits like fiber, supporting smarter and more health-conscious consumer choices.

For example, PepsiCo Inc., a US-based food and beverage giant, introduced a new line of chickpea-based Walkers snacks in July 2024. This product range includes flavors such as Wotsits Cheese Toastie, Wotsits Crispy Bacon, and Monster Munch BBQ Sauce, each containing fewer than 100 calories per pack and 25% less salt than standard extruded snacks. These offerings combine real taste with healthier nutritional profiles, allowing consumers to enjoy snacks without compromising on flavor. The launch is supported by a £58 million investment in PepsiCo's Leicester factory, enabling enhanced production capabilities. Integrated into PepsiCo's broader health initiatives, this product rollout aligns with the company's target of achieving 50% of snack sales from non-high fat, sugar, and salt products or 100-calorie portions by 2025, strengthening brand loyalty and expanding healthier choices.

2) Product Types: Including Aspartame, Sucralose, Stevia, Saccharin, and Cyclamate
