Alcoholic Drinks and an Aging Population

The 50+ age group makes up 31% of the world's population and accounts for 30% of global spending on alcoholic drinks (though a lower share of volume). This age group accounts for 40% of wine spending, 37% of spirits spending and 22% of spending on beer, cider and FABs.

The 50+ age group typically accounts for about a half of all consumer spending and many want to live in style with premium products because they believe that have earned it. However, it is estimated that only 10% of marketing is directed at the 50+ age group, such that half of this group believes that businesses have little interest in their needs.

There is an opportunity for no, low, and lower alcohol products, because seniors are the most likely of all age groups to moderate or abstain from drinking. Older consumers are also interested in dietary products (low/no calorie/carb/sugar etc) which currently make up about 2% of new alcoholic drink launches.

Future Diet Trends and Opportunities

Changes in the global food system and more sedentary lifestyles have combined to create a global obesity crisis. Children around the world are getting fatter younger – a ticking time bomb in terms of poor health and rocketing medical costs. Dieting has to be part of the solution, with strong growth in this market almost assured.

Certain demographic groups are disproportionately affected by the obesity epidemic. Particular ethnic groups, and those on lower incomes, for example, are more likely to be overweight. Today’s diet options remain ‘one size fits all’, but careful targeting and propositions designed to meet different dieters’ needs represents a key opportunity.

With the launch of digital platforms, diet programs can now offer 24-hour support tools and engage dieters in more appealing and interactive ways. New diet programs have the opportunity to make quick inroads in the market while established brands need to take advantage of these new tools in order to maintain their market position.

Manual Wheelchair Market Shares, Strategies, and Forecasts, Worldwide, 2012 to 2018

As the population ages, people are more frail and need assistance for mobility. Hospital and homecare wheelchair technology is evolving to give people with disabilities more mobility. Mobility depends on a wheelchair that is fit to purpose.
Are people going to move themselves? Are they going to be pushed around? Is the wheelchair used for sports? Many issues impact the choice of a wheelchair, including cost and reimbursement availability.

Markets are poised to create the ability for people to get more exercise and impact the healthcare delivery industry by encouraging mobility of people who were previously bed ridden. Wheelchairs impact care delivery, permitting the patient to control mobility for the rehabilitation efforts. Lightweight wheel chairs give patients the ability to control movement.

Transport wheelchairs are used for moving patients from the bed to another place. Patients and family gain more control over the care delivery with the availability of transport wheelchairs. Care can be delivered in familiar settings.

Invacare is an industry leader in the market for manual wheelchairs, power wheelchairs, and home medical products. The leadership position is bolstered by the ability to offer quality products and an enviable distribution network.

Datamonitor forecasts sales for prostate cancer to reach $1.7bn in 2011 in the seven major markets, growing to $4.3bn by 2020, representing a positive 2011-2020 CAGR of 8%. However, Datamonitor’s survey of 124 medical oncologists and urologists suggests that high levels of unmet need remain in preventing the emergence of castration resistance.

Datamonitor estimates that in 2011 the antihormonal class of drugs dominated the prostate cancer market with 63% market share, owing to wide use in both clinically localized and advanced disease. Zytiga is set to become market leader with market share peaking at 18% before patent expiry.

Sales of cytotoxic and immunotherapeutic drugs including Jevtana (cabazitaxel; Sanofi) and Provenge (sipuleucel-T; Dendreon) constituted 30% of market sales across the seven major markets in 2011. This will decrease to 28% over the forecast period owing to Jevtana’s patent expiry and greater use of alternative therapies with lower toxicity.
