BUBBLE GUM MARKET OVERVIEW

The global bubble gum market size was valued at approximately USD 0.87 billion in 2024 and is projected to grow to USD 1.27 billion by 2033, at a CAGR of 4.2% during the forecast period.

A sort of chewing gum called bubble gum is intended to refresh breath and pop out of the mouth as a bubble. Bubble gum's film-forming qualities give it the ability to blow bubbles. They used to be created with a variety of tree saps, including the sapodilla tree's latex sap. Contrarily, chewing gums are now made with a variety of sweeteners, flavors, gum bases, softeners, colors, and other substances. Because of the physical-chemical characteristics of its plasticizer, resin, and polymer components, chewing gum has a feel resembling rubber. These elements give chewing gum its sticky, elastic-plastic, and chewy characteristics.

Manufacturers are using a number of marketing techniques to attract younger consumers and boost chewing gum demand with novel flavors, designs, and eye-catching packaging.

COVID-19 Impact

Seriousness of Diseases to Hamper Market Growth

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with bubble gum experiencing higher-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden spike in CAGR is attributed to the market's growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.

Global consumer demand for nicotine gums, a crucial segment of the chewing gum market, grew significantly during the COVID-19 pandemic. This was brought on by customers' increasing knowledge of the seriousness of the COVID-19 disease, which affects smokers increasingly frequently. Coronaviruses and other infections are more difficult for the body to fight off when smoking impairs lung function.

LATEST TRENDS

Rise in Young Population to Promote Market Growth

Due to the rising number of young people in emerging nations, one of the significant trends in the global chewing gum industry is the quick consumption of this gum. The integration of extra health aids and components into chewing gums with functional uses rather than only a breath-freshening effect is another aspect that can accelerate target market expansion in the upcoming years.
