From snacks to smoking, PreScouter identifies the categories losing ground and the ones set to surge.
CHICAGO - illiNews -- Chicago, IL — PreScouter, a Chicago-based strategy consulting firm, has released a new report that uncovers hidden opportunities in the GLP-1 era, well beyond appetite control. GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy are curbing more than hunger. From rewired reward pathways to shifting spend patterns, the ripple effects are already being felt across pharma, food & beverage, supplements, and wellness, opening the door to white space innovation. The report serves as a strategic playbook, spotlighting which segments are at risk and where forward-looking brands can seize the next wave of growth.
"This is more than a trend; it's a major shift in how people approach food, health, and wellness," notes Thuy Ngo, report co-author and Project Architect at PreScouter. With more than 1 in 8 adults in North America already using a GLP-1 drug—and the market projected to reach $238 billion by 2034—GLP-1 adoption is driving measurable shifts in consumer behavior. For instance, early clinical trials report alcohol use dropping by 41%, smoking rates dropping from 40% to 24%, and household spending moving away from fast food and snacks toward smaller, higher-protein grocery items. These changes are reshaping daily habits and revealing new opportunities for brands positioned to meet evolving needs.
