Danone Sees Resilient Sales Growth, Helped by Higher Volumes
(Bloomberg) -- Danone SA reported resilient sales growth in the final months of last year, buoyed by demand for high-protein dairy products and bottled waters in North America. NYC's Congestion Pricing Pulls In $48.6 Million in First Month The Trump Administration Takes Aim at Transportation Research Shelters Await Billions in Federal Money for Homelessness Providers NYC to Shut Migrant Center in Former Hotel as Crisis Eases New York's Congestion Pricing Plan Faces Another Legal Showdown Like-for-like sales rose 4.7% in the fourth quarter, the producer of Volvic water and Activia yogurt said Wednesday, surpassing analysts' estimates. Sales jumped 7.7% in North America and 6.8% in the region including China. Chief Executive Officer Antoine de Saint-Affrique has made volume growth a priority as consumer goods companies try to claw back the market share they lost to cheaper store brands when shoppers traded down during a period of high inflation. Danone reported higher-than-expected volume-mix last quarter, an indication customers are choosing more expensive brands. Danone shares rose as much as 2.4% in early Paris trading. The stock has climbed about 17% in the past 12 months. However, the yogurt maker cautiously forecast like-for-like sales growth of between 3% and 5% in 2025, matching its target from last year, an outlook that Jefferies analyst David Hayes described as 'uninspiring.' De Saint-Affrique has staked the next stage of the company's turnaround on the growth of medical nutrition, which includes food designed for cancer patients and the elderly. He has also bet on a boost from a trend towards healthy eating, especially in the US, with the adoption of obesity and diabetes medications. It's among a group of companies hoping to ameliorate potential side effects from Ozempic and other GLP-1 drugs, such as muscle loss, with high-protein items. Danone is likely to record only moderate margin expansion this year and could consider more acquisitions to boost areas of weakness, said Hayes.

For More Information and To Stay Updated on The Latest Developments in The Brain Health Supplements Market, Download The Sample Pages: Overview of Report Findings Market Growth: The brain health supplements market is expected to reach US$ 20.01 billion by 2031 from US$ 8.24 billion in 2023; it is expected to register a CAGR of 11.7% during the forecast period. The brain health supplement market growth is attributed to growing public awareness of mental health conditions such as depression, anxiety, and attention deficit disorders. Furthermore, the growing popularity of natural and herbal health products is expected to support the market expansion during the forecast period. R&D activity in the brain health supplement sector is rising owing to the increasing inclination toward multi-efficacy medications that can reduce anxiety, improve brain function, raise energy, and act as antidepressants. Furthermore, the growing desire for athletes to increase their brain efficacy is anticipated to create growth prospects in the market. Growing Prevalence of Major Depressive Disorders to Favor Market: Depression is a mental health condition different from normal mood fluctuations and temporary emotional responses. Treatments such as medications and psychological treatments, along with general measures such as relaxation techniques, help in recovering from this condition. Different treatment options are often combined to treat depression. If depression is recurrent with moderate or severe intensity, it may become a severe health issue. According to estimates by the (World Health Organization) WHO, 5% of adults globally (i.e. ~280 million) suffer from depression. Cases of chronic depression are increasing in Europe. According to Eurostat, 7.2% of European Union (EU) citizens had chronic depression in 2019. The prevalence of depression is higher in Asia Pacific compared to the rest of the world. According to the National Centre for Biotechnology Information (NCBI), there is growing evidence about the role of nutrients in mental health. The adequate consumption of nutrients contributes to better overall health and mental health. Hence, the optimum supply of nutrients as adjunctive therapy to antidepressant treatment is essential for adequate brain functioning. Thus, the growing prevalence of major depressive disorders is driving the growth of the brain health supplements market. Rising Demand for Brain Health Supplements from Asia Pacific: This growing demand for brain health supplements in the Asia Pacific region is attributed to the growing mental illness, increasing geriatric population, and product launches by key players. For instance, DHC Ginkgo Biloba Brain Alpha Functional Indication Food is produced by DHC Japan. This supplement improves blood flow to the brain, maintains memory, and improves judgment accuracy. During the forecast period, China holds the largest share of the Asia-Pacific brain health supplement market. Depression is the most prevalent health burden among the Chinese population. According to the World Health Organization, ~54 million people in China suffer from depression, and 41 million suffer from anxiety disorders. According to research published in a Medicine Journal in 2022, the awareness rate of mental health knowledge was 66% among Chinese adolescents. As per Healthy China 2019–2030 targets, by 2030, ~80% of people are expected to access treatment for depression.

Super Bowl Ads Highlight Growing Craze for Cold Coffee at Home
(Bloomberg) -- At the Super Bowl last Sunday, Danone SA's commercial featured Channing Tatum tossing a large bottle of STōK Cold Brew Coffee to British soccer players. Nestlé SA's showcased a game watcher at home consuming a Coffee-Mate product specifically designed for cold drinks. Progressive Portland Plots a Comeback Why American Mobility Ground to a Halt A Filmmaker's Surreal Journey Into His Own Private Winnipeg How to Build a Neurodiverse City SpaceX Bid to Turn Texas Starbase Into City Is Set for Vote in May The fun — and expensive — ads reflect a deeper shift in the coffee industry: Not only are consumers choosing cold over hot coffee, but they are also starting to drink it at home instead of just at cafes. Already more than 70% of all the drinks sold at Starbucks Corp. are cold, with consumption being fueled by Gen Z. Now a wider lineup of multi-serving bottles and cold coffee machines have made it easier than ever to make a drink at home. That hasn't gone unnoticed by Starbucks founder Howard Schultz and other alumni of the world's largest coffee chain operator. He is investing in Cumulus Coffee, a company started by a former Starbucks executive that has recently launched a $700 machine to make cold brew at home. 'Coffee at home is consumed massively around the world — all we're doing is reflecting on the transformation in the category that exists and bringing cold coffee into the home.' Schultz said in an interview. 'The size of the prize is so big.' Cold brews are often less acidic, richer and sometimes have a chocolatey coffee taste, making it a good entry point for people just starting to get hooked on caffeine. They also pack a stronger caffeine jolt, making them more attractive to many drinkers. For years, though, cold brews were more troublesome to make, often requiring at least 12 hours of brewing and greater attention to factors like how the coffee used to make the beverages was ground. As a result, the market was restricted to mostly coffee shops. But a wave of innovation now means the beverages can be purchased in bottles and cans. And with a Cumulus machine that sucks nitrogen out of its surroundings, consumers can create their own foamy, nitro cold brew from the comfort of their homes. A recent survey by the National Coffee Association revealed that 18% of respondents had consumed ready-to-drink coffee in a bottle or can the previous day, more than double the levels seen in the prior four years. That made the category, which includes cold drinks, the third most popular way of drinking coffee at home — surprisingly overtaking espresso machines. Booming Sales Sales of ready-to-drink coffee topped $1 billion in the past year, up more than 80% from 2021, according to data from consumer researcher NIQ. Multi-serve bottles such as Danone's STōK Cold Brew Coffee also allow for more customization. At home, consumers can add water, milk or other flavored syrups and creamers to make lattes and martinis — all with no cafe equipment and at a lower cost. 'Consumers have for years been getting their cold coffee outside the home, learning their formats, learning what they like, what they don't like,' said Matthew Barry, the insight manager for food and beverage at Euromonitor International. 'And now increasingly they're saying, 'You know what? This is really expensive and the cost of living is high right now. Maybe I can try to do this at home.'' Americans are pinching pennies as inflation has eroded their buying power, with the price of everything from meat to gas surging in recent years. To make matters worse, bad weather in top coffee producer Brazil curbed supplies, sending prices of the arabica variety favored by Starbucks to a record. To be sure, making a cold brew at home isn't always fast and cheap. A Cumulus machine costs as much as six times the price of a Nespresso maker used for hot beverages. Add to that the price of pods, which retail for another $25 for a pack of 10. 'Obviously the machine is an investment, but if somebody does some back-of-the-envelope math and you're spending $5 to $7 one time or maybe two times a day at a cafe, this thing very quickly pays for itself,' said Mesh Gelman, founder of Cumulus and a former Starbucks executive. Other companies are making investments too. Westrock Coffee Co., a private label company, recently poured $315 million to build a new plant in Conway, Arkansas, to make cold coffee. The manufacturing line that makes big bottles of cold beverages was the first of four to open last year, and half of its capacity is already sold out. The market is ripe for more growth, with young consumers share their at-home recipes on social media, said Niel Sandfort, chief innovation officer at Chobani. In 2023, his company acquired La Colombe, which has a lineup of 42-ounce bottles of cold coffee. Younger drinkers are treating cold coffee as an energy drink, 'more of a dopamine moment,' Sandfort said. 'That dopamine moment is much more of an exciting, enriching, on-the-go experience.' --With assistance from Daniela Sirtori.
