◎ Awareness of Food Additives is Increasing Year by Year, and the Trend Towards "Safe & Domestic" is Expanding
Since the COVID-19 pandemic, consumer awareness regarding food additives has become more stringent. Previously, vague concerns like "it seems somehow bad for the body" were mainstream, but now, as a result of increased self-awareness to "protect my own body myself," reducing additives has transformed into a "proactive choice" for maintaining immunity and reducing future health risks.
According to a survey conducted by the Japan Consumers' Co-operative Union, 50.5% of consumers responded that they "avoid products containing unnecessary additives" when shopping.
Furthermore, according to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications' Family Income and Expenditure Survey, the market for health-conscious food products is expanding at an average annual rate of approximately 5-6%, and consumers who prioritize keywords such as "additive-free" and "domestic ingredients" are on the rise.
The product gaining support as it meets these needs is North Colors' Pure Domestic Series.
