The platform monitors e-commerce data and tracks the product lifecycles of newly launched brands across markets and online retailers to inform decision-making on product innovation.
4000 new brands launched in 2023
In 2023, Euromonitor detected more than 4,000 new brand launches and over 33,000 new sub-brand launches across the 32 global markets, 50 categories and online-retailers on its radar.
From 2021 to 2023, analysts watched more than 11,000 new brands and some 105,000 sub-brands launch on to the global market.
Most new launches were line extensions for brands, with almost 3,000 new sub-brands on average launching each month.
Overall, Euromonitor analysts identified that there is a less than 60% chance new products will survive in the market in the long term.
The super six
The super six countries of product innovation - the US, Germany, India, France, Brazil, and the UK - contributed to more than 50% of all new brands and sub-brands identified by the platform in 2023.
The US dominated innovation activity in 2023, with 16% of all detected new brands and sub-brands in 2023, followed by Germany with 9%.
With its vast and varied population and significant disposable income, the US stands out as a prime market for testing new products before expanding into others.
It offers attractive opportunities for companies seeking to gauge product viability and consumer interest.
