The Fructo Oligosaccharide (FOS) Market is on an upward trajectory, set to witness substantial growth from USD 3.49 billion in 2023 to USD 5.67 billion by 2028. This projected Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 10.19% during the forecast period (2023-2028) highlights the escalating demand for FOS driven by its applications across various industries.

Alternatively, it can be enzymatically extracted from inulin. The market's growth is being fueled by its increasing application in industries like animal feed and pharmaceuticals. The rising demand for functional products, dietary supplements, and growing health consciousness are key factors driving the demand for prebiotics like FOS.

Rising Awareness and Lifestyle Changes Propel Growth

As consumer awareness of FOS's benefits grows and its functional properties become better understood, the demand for FOS is expected to surge over the forecast period. Lifestyle changes and heightened health concerns further contribute to this growth.

Market Trends: Demand for Low-calorie Foods and European Dominance

The market is witnessing a rising demand for low-calorie foods as consumers increasingly seek healthier dietary choices.
