The organic food additives market, specifically for shelf-life stabilizers, has experienced significant growth in developed countries due to increasing consumer preference for natural and organic alternatives over synthetic food additives. This trend is driven by the perception that organic additives are safer and healthier, despite their higher manufacturing and acquisition costs. Moreover, the health-conscious population's expanding base is fueling the adoption rate of organic additives. In the beverage industry, the demand for low or no sugar drinks continues to rise, necessitating the production of healthier alternatives. Organic acids like citric acid, which are commonly used as natural food additives, are expected to benefit from this shift in consumer preferences.
