Worldwide CBD-Infused Beverages Industry to 2025 - Impact of COVID-19 on the Market

Dublin, Aug. 27, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Global CBD-Infused Beverages Market: Focus on Product Type (Alcoholic and Non-Alcoholic), Industry Analysis (Regulatory Framework, Supply Chain, Patent Analysis, and Investments), and Region - Analysis and Forecast, 2019-2025" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

According to this market intelligence report the CBD-infused beverages market is expected to reach $1,018.3 million by 2025. Market growth is largely attributed to the increasing legalization of cannabis for medical and recreational purposes. As a result, many alcohol giants are investing a significant amount in the growing trend for cannabis-infused drinks.

CBD-infused food and drinks are setting a new trend in the food and healthcare industries. These nutritious drinks have secured a strong position in the food and beverage industry. Despite the challenges pertaining to the legalization and regulation of CBD products, CBD beverages have witnessed a worldwide adoption due to their benefits. Some of the factors responsible for shaping the CBD beverage industry's future are changing customer tastes, product innovations, awareness, and acclaim for these beverages.

Increased health concerns, such as depression (about 264 million people suffer as of 2019) and anxiety, have also fuelled the demand for cannabis-based products that have shown positive response in the treatment of conditions. CBD has also become increasingly popular for pain relief, mood-improvement, and relaxation. As a result, people have started consuming CBD-infused drinks in their day-to-day lives, thus boosting the market.

Since CBD is non-psychoactive, it does not intoxicate the consumer, unlike THC. Instead, it is meant to include the wellness benefits of cannabis-plants with no mind-altering impact. CBD experts and users claim that it helps with a wide variety of health problems. According to Harvard Health, CBD benefits is perhaps most visible in the treatment of epilepsy. CBD is particularly useful in alleviating symptoms for those living with Dravet and Lennox-Gastaut syndromes, who do not usually respond to traditional anti-seizure drugs. The FDA has also approved the cannabis-derived medicine, a CBD-based oral solution to help individuals with these types of seizures.

Some of the most prominent players in the CBD-infused beverages market are Canopy Growth Corporation, Phivida Holding Inc., The Alkaline Water Company, New Age Beverage Corporation, Puration Inc., and Cannabiniers. The result of the emerging strategies and developments are already surging the market in the form of partnerships, collaborations, and joint ventures. Moreover, the growing demand for CBD-infused beverages is further expected to increase the involvement of companies across different segments of the value chain. The majority of the companies preferred partnerships, collaborations, and joint ventures to enhance their presence, while the relatively less adoptive strategies comprised developing and launching new products. Strategic partnerships across the value chain of the CBD-infused Beverages market presented a significant move made by a large number of companies since 2017. For instance, in February 2019, Phivida Holdings Inc. announced a partnership with Flora Research Laboratories, an analytical testing and consulting service provider for the natural products, to focus on product testing and quality assurance for its hemp-infused beverages line-up.
