Nutrition and Energy Bars - US - February 2011

While sales in many food and drink categories declined or remained stagnant between 2008 and 2010, sales of nutrition and energy bars rose considerably during this period. Additionally, there is some indication that the category is positioned well for future growth due to strong demand for better-for-you snacks and increasing pressure from regulators to produce more options low in calories, sodium and fat but high in essential nutrients.
