Alternative Sweeteners to 2013 - Market Research, Market Share, Market Size, Sales, Demand Forecast, Market Leaders, Company Profiles, Industry Trends

US demand for alternative sweeteners is projected to grow 3.4 percent annually through 2013, as food processors and consumers seek healthier food options with fewer calories or less high fructose corn syrup. Sucralose, acesulfame potassium (ace-K), erythritol and stevia extract rebiana (reb-A) will see above average gains.

This study analyzes the $1.1 billion US alternative sweetener industry. It presents historical demand data for the years 1998, 2003 and 2008, and forecasts for 2013 and 2018 by product (e.g., high intensity sweeteners, polyols) and market (e.g., food, beverages, personal care products, pharmaceuticals).

The study also considers market environment factors, details industry structure, evaluates company market share and profiles 27 industry players, including Tate & Lyle, NutraSweet and Cargill.
