from a niche segment to a mainstream product. The market is spurred mainly by
the introduction of innovative products satisfying the customer's nutritional
and health requirements. A new genre of products has emerged that help maintain
bone, gut, heart health, and general well being. Rise in disposable income and
growing willingness to pay more for healthy, indulgent, and convenient foods are
factors critical for growth of this market. Flavor and functional benefits
continue to be the crucial factors determining consumption decisions. Organic
functional foods have also emerged as a niche sector garnering immense consumer
attention.
