Despite fairly static growth levels within the global functional foods industry, levels of corporate and new product activity remain high. With most of the world's leading food groups continuing to focus upon improving the health and nutritional qualities of their products, many are keen to expand their presence in market sectors such as functional dairy products, soya-based and lactose-free foods and sports and energy drinks. Mergers and acquisitions are also taking place to enable companies to develop a footprint within some of the world's less developed functional food markets.
