Vitamin and supplement retailers have faced mixed conditions in recent years. Although overall sales of vitamins and supplements have been on the rise, supported by higher health consciousness among consumers and associated wellness trends, external competitive forces have eroded demand for traditional vitamin and supplement retailers. Consumers have been buying more health and wellbeing products from competing pure-play online retailers, pharmacies and supermarkets, which generally provide products that are less expensive. While the shift in shopping behaviours towards online channels was already occurring before the COVID-19 outbreak, the pandemic accelerated the trend and has significantly altered consumer purchasing patterns. Structural changes have also occurred in retail channels. During the pandemic, temporary closures of vitamin and supplement stores drove consumers to alternative channels for their vitamin purchases, and this trend has persisted post-pandemic.
