Key Takeaways

• According to the ITC Trade Data analysis, Peru imported USD 11.30 million worth of chewing gum accounting for 2,852 tons in 2023.

Chewing gum, a recreational food primarily enjoyed for its mastication properties, is evolving to meet consumer demands for functional benefits. Some gums tout teeth-cleaning properties, while others like nicotine gum aid in smoking cessation. Teeth-whitening gum leads sales, followed by nicotine variants. Composed of gum base, sweeteners, flavours, and colours, gum comes in various natural or synthetic flavours like peppermint and spearmint. Innovation in sugar-free varieties aligns with growing oral health concerns but faces challenges from health campaigns against gum. Future Peru chewing gum market growth hinges on informing consumers through packaging.

Chewing gum offers stress relief and impulse buying appeal, driven by dental health benefits. Sugar-free gum sees growth, addressing concerns over tooth decay and appealing to consumers' health consciousness.

For exporters like Peru targeting 2028 markets, Ecuador shows promise followed by Colombia, USA, Chile, and Spain. Despite overall import demand, the USA leads. The market thrives on impulse purchases and health-conscious trends, with sugar-free gum anticipated to grow due to rising disposable incomes.

Manufacturers cater to younger demographics with new flavours and packaging, adapting to shifting preferences. Functional gums, offering health benefits like improved memory and focus, smoking cessation, and oral health enhancement, are gaining popularity. They appeal to preventive healthcare enthusiasts and cater to diverse tastes, further driving market growth.

Innovation and expansion efforts by manufacturers, focusing on informative packaging and product benefits, are expected to sustain the upward trend in functional chewing gum sales, aligning with consumer preferences for health-conscious products while playing an important role in the Peru chewing gum market development.
