Recent Study: Weight Management in Switzerland

Obesity and being overweight remain major public health issues in 2013. According to Euromonitor International, the obesity rate (percentage of population with a BMI of 30 or more) of the Swiss population aged 15+ increased over the review period. The same applies for the overweight rate (BMI 25-30). In general the lack of physical activity, as well as an increased consumption of convenient but high-calorie foods, are blamed for the rise in obesity and overweight rates.

Competitive Landscape

Herbalife International Deutschland GmbH continued to lead weight management in Switzerland in 2013. As a direct seller the company profits from its strong relationship with its customers. Sales agents of Herbalife simultaneously offer free personal counselling to its customers, which is highly appreciated among Swiss consumers and otherwise only available in chemists/pharmacies.

Weight management is expected to continue its decline in terms of value sales over the forecast period. However, the rate of decline is likely to slow down slightly as manufacturers are expected to intensify new product development based on natural or even organic ingredients, the aim being to offer products with fewer side effects and earn greater acceptance and trust among Swiss consumers. Furthermore, additional services for a holistic weight management approach in balance with a sustainable and healthy lifestyle are expected to gain further importance, as more consumers educate themselves regarding nutrition and overall health.
