In this case study, a global ingredients company engaged CPL Business Consultants to assess the markets for phloridzin and other apple polyphenols. CPL overviewed the market, looked at potential opportunities and pricing strategy, and made strategic recommendations on market entry.
Apple polyphenols (e.g. phloridzin) show diverse biological activities and may contribute to beneficial health effects, including protecting against inflammation, high blood sugar and cardiovascular disease. The objective of this project was to assess potential opportunities in health ingredients for use in foods, beverages, dietary supplements and cosmetics.
In considering each opportunity, we attempted to determine the following: –
- Approximate market size, characteristics (including possible competitive products), trends and likely future potential
- Key players with an IP/technology position
- Main success factors and barriers to entry of successful key players
- Potential partner and acquisition targets (either key players with IP/technology or good science-based ‘other’ players with good products)
- Key market segments in terms of applications or health conditions targeted
- Associated health benefits
- Scientific substantiation
- Possible use of the polyphenol (or the extract) as a technological antioxidant
