Over the years, obesity has emerged as a key health concern in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region owing to the sedentary lifestyle habits of the majority of the population. This has consequently led to an increase in the prevalence of diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular disorders (CVD) and diabetes. Rising awareness among the consumers regarding the risks posed by obesity and related health issues has led a large section of the population to adopt weight loss solutions like gyms, sports clubs, weight loss centers, slimming supplements and bariatric surgery.

Market Trends:
A shift in the dietary preference is one of the key factors driving the market growth in the region. Owing to the hectic lifestyle of the working population, there has been a significant shift from the usual home-cooked food toward fast foods, which have high-calorie content. This shift has been further propelled by factors such as rapid urbanization, increasing influence of westernization, rising disposable incomes and easy accessibility to packaged food items owing to the proliferation of supermarkets and hypermarkets. Additionally, since the region experiences high average temperature throughout the year, people living in the Gulf countries avoid participating in outdoor sports events, which has resulted in a lack of physical activities. However, people are becoming increasingly aware of the health risks associated with obesity and the need to maintain a healthy lifestyle as a preventive measure to avoid any severe health issues. All these factors have led the population to explore weight loss services and products, which are gaining preference in the region. Other factors such as the launch of innovative variants and aggressive promotional activities by the manufacturers of weight loss products and services are also contributing to the growth of the market in the region. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the GCC weight loss market to grow at a CAGR of 9.50% during 2021-2026
