Exploding Idea: Postbiotics
As the wellness industry continues to expand, postbiotics are emerging as a massive business opportunity.
With a projected compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.8%, now is an opportune time to get into this space. The global postbiotics market is expected to increase from $1.6 billion in 2021 to $3 billion by 2031, driven by consumer demand for products that enhance health and wellness.
What Are Postbiotics?
Postbiotics are a relatively new concept in gut health and microbiome science. Defined by the International Scientific Association for Probiotics and Prebiotics (ISAPP) as “preparations of inanimate microorganisms and/or their components that confer a health benefit on the host,” postbiotics differ from probiotics, which are live microorganisms.
The Opportunity
For entrepreneurs, postbiotics represent a unique opportunity. Companies like Goli have already begun capitalized on this trend, and are performing exceptionally well on platforms like TikTok by scaling user-generated content.
However, some consumer feedback suggests that Goli's products have room for improvement in terms of taste.
Entrepreneurs could differentiate their postbiotic products by focusing on flavor and quality. One approach might be to combine the postbiotic trend with another growing niche—freeze-dried candy.
