Further, the government of the country has also been encouraging sports activities among the younger population due to which the consumption of energy drinks was on the rise. For instance, in 2022, the General Authority of Statistics revealed that nearly 48.2% of the country’s population now practices sports activities approximately 30 minutes a week. This has encouraged the consumption of energy drinks among sports players. Also, in the coming years, the demand for sports drinks is expected to grow as the government is actively encouraging sports events in the country. For instance,

  • In 2023, the Public Investment Fund (PIF) in Saudi Arabia announced a fresh sports investment company initiated by the Saudi sovereign wealth fund. The aim of SRJ Sports Investments is to attract significant global sporting events to the kingdom.

Consequently, this would further boost the consumption of energy drinks among the sports players as well as individuals & visitors, which would lead to the growth of the Saudi Arabia Energy Drink Market in the coming years as well.

Saudi Arabia Energy Drinks Market Driver:

Inclination of Individuals Towards Fitness & Sports-Based Activities Due to Increasing Obesity Disorder– In Saudi Arabia, the number of fitness enthusiasts has been constantly rising, many individuals have adopted a healthy fitness regime and have included extensive workouts in their regular practice. This has been mainly attributed to the rising instances of obesity and its related disorders among consumers across the country. Hence, the consumption of energy drinks improved among consumers adopting fitness activities, as these individuals have to maintain an optimal level of energy to perform the workout.

Further, in the coming years as well, more individuals are expected to switch to a healthy lifestyle and are expected to adopt workouts & different forms of exercise. This would be mainly to curb the obesity & lifestyle-related health issues which are highly prevalent in the country.

  • For instance, in 2023, the Global Obesity Observatory stated that nearly 60% of the country’s adult population is either obese or overweight.

Hence, this would boost the consumption of energy drinks like Code Red, Monster, etc., and would lead to the growth of the Saudi Arabia Energy Drinks Market during 2023-2028.

Saudi Arabia Energy Drinks Market Opportunity:

Higher Inclination Among Consumers for Sugar-Free Energy Drinks – In recent years, consumers across Saudi Arabia have been found to be highly inclined toward sugar-free energy drinks. It is majorly in line with the growing health consciousness among consumers, as sugar has been associated with several health risks. Weight gain, type 2 diabetes, heart disease, etc., are a few of the major ailments that are prevalent among Saudi Arabians, owing to the consumption of sugars. Further, the number of diabetes cases in Saudi Arabia has been escalating severely in recent years and is estimated to amplify as well in upcoming years. For instance,

  • According to the International Diabetes Federation, around 4,274.1 thousand individuals in Saudi Arabia had diabetes in 2021, which is estimated to increase to 5,631 thousand in 2030.

Henceforth, the growing number of diabetic patients in Saudi Arabia, who are prescribed to reduce sugar content from their diet, are expected to amplify the demand for sugar-free energy drinks in the forecasted years. Also, companies like Monster Energy, Red Bull, etc., have started launching and expanding the availability of the current range of zero-sugar energy drinks across Saudi Arabia in recent years. These actions have been in line with the enhanced demand for sugar-free energy drinks among consumers in recent years.

Saudi Arabia Energy Drinks Market Challenge:

Government-Imposed Regulations and High Taxation to Restrict the Sales of Energy Drinks- The Saudi government has introduced limitations on the consumption of energy drinks among tourists & passengers arriving in the country. This was intended to control the intake of stimulants like caffeine, inositol, taurine, etc., which was widely restricting the sales of energy drinks in the country.

  • For instance, in 2022, the Zakat, Tax and Customs Authority (ZATCA) announced that it limited the number of energy drinks to 10 per individual arriving in the country.

Additionally, energy drinks are largely regulated across the country, and the government levies a high sugar tax of 100%, as stated by the Zakat, Tax and Customs Authority (ZATCA). These taxes have resulted in a significant rise in the purchasing cost of the products, which would continue to negatively impact the sales of brands like Bison, Red Bull, etc. Thus, the government-imposed restrictions and high tax on sugar are emerging as challenges for the growth of the Saudi Arabia Energy Drinks Market.

Saudi Arabia Energy Drinks Market Trend:

Flavored Energy Drinks Gaining Traction in Saudi Arabia - In Saudi Arabia, companies have been focusing on introducing energy drinks with various flavors in recent years, and consumers have been found to be highly inclined toward ones that suit their local taste. Being a country with rich culinary traditions, the consumers have been largely preferring unique flavors of energy drinks that have been launched recently. Further, companies like Red Bull, Monster Energy, etc., launched their exciting flavors of energy drinks, which were highly appreciated among consumers during the past few years. For instance,

  • In 2023, Monster Energy, launched Monster Juiced Aussie Lemonade and Monster Ultra Rosa to bring an exciting new flavor to the energy drinks category.

Moreover, as flavor inclusion has been a widely accepted trend that has proved to enhance sales, the companies would further try to bring unique flavors to their energy drink range. Thus, flavor inclusion would help in the growth of the Saudi Arabia Energy Drinks Market in the upcoming years as well.

Saudi Arabia Energy Drinks Market (2023-28): Segmentation Analysis

The Saudi Arabia Energy Drinks Market study of MarkNtel Advisors evaluates & highlights the major trends & influencing factors in each segment. It includes predictions for the period 2023–2028 at the national level. Based on the analysis, the market has been further classified as:

Based on the Target Customer:

  • Teenagers
  • Adults
  • Geriatric Population

Of the above-mentioned target customer base, the adult segment holds a significant share of the market. Mainly because energy drinks have been primarily targeted toward the adult population base, who have an active lifestyle involving workouts and exercise routines. Also, energy drinks like Red Bull, code red, Monster, etc., contains high caffeine content to stimulate the hormones of the body to allow it to work more efficiently, due to which energy drinks were ideally not recommended for teenage customers. Therefore, energy drinks have been primarily targeted towards the adult’s user base.

In addition to it, alcohol consumption in Saudi Arabia is banned, due to which adult foreign visitors also rely upon energy drinks to fulfill their caffeine requirement or to meet the craving to consume a beverage. Hence, the adult segment has been dominating the market over the past few years, which is expected to continue in the coming years as well.

Based on the Distribution Channel:

  • Offline Channels
    • Hypermarket/ Supermarket
    • Convenience Stores
  • Online Channels

The country has an extensive presence of offline retail stores including convenience stores, hypermarkets & supermarkets, pharmacies, etc., that sell health & wellness products. Due to this, the share of offline channels was comparatively more than the online channels. In addition, offline stores were observed to often provide newly launched drinks and flavors on an immediate basis, due to which individuals had a preference towards offline retail stores to buy energy drinks. As a result, it emerged as a major segment for the growth of Saudi Arabia’s Energy Drinks Market during the historical years.

However, individuals in Saudi Arabia are gradually shifting towards online platforms such as Carrefour, Noon, and others as these platforms provide a wide range of product availability, faster delivery options, and attractive discounts. Owing to this, consumers are inclining towards online shopping. In addition to it, urbanization and hectic work schedules are also aiding the growth of online channels as they provide easy and on-door delivery to customers. Hence, owing to these factors more individuals are expected to shift to online channels to purchase energy drinks & other beverages, thus leading to the growth of the segment in the Saudi Arabia Energy Drinks Market.

Saudi Arabia Energy Drinks Market Recent Developments:

  • 2023: Monster Energy
