Mercato del gelato del Regno Unito 2025

The United Kingdom ice cream market is poised for steady growth, with market value forecast to rise from USD 7.1 billion in 2025 a USD 9.1 miliardi di 2030, corresponding to a compound annual growth rate of 4.88%. Economic pressures stemming from rising living costs have driven greater consumer price sensitivity, yet indulgence at home remains a persistent trend. Families are increasingly investing in multi-serve and bulk formats, seeking affordable ways to enjoy ice cream as a source of comfort and small-scale luxury within domestic settings. This “at-home indulgence” trend has provided a robust foundation for growth in family-oriented packaging and premium formats.

Health considerations are simultaneously reshaping demand patterns. Consumers are showing a marked preference for portion-controlled and nutritionally balanced options, including high-protein, Sugar basso, and high-fiber ice creams. These choices reflect a broader lifestyle shift toward health consciousness and calorie management, particularly among younger and urban demographics. Brands are responding with single-serve, bite-sized, and functional ice cream offerings designed to satisfy cravings while maintaining alignment with wellness priorities.

The plant-based segment represents the fastest-growing and most innovative category within the market. Driven by environmental awareness, animal welfare concerns, and health-oriented consumption, plant-based ice cream has seen rapid penetration into mainstream retail. Industry estimates suggest that by 2030, plant-based variants could account for a double-digit share of total ice cream sales, reflecting both increased consumer acceptance and expanded product portfolios from leading manufacturers.

Innovation and digital influence continue to shape market dynamics. Social media platforms play a pivotal role in generating viral trends, from novel flavor launches to visually striking product presentations, amplifying short-term demand and driving experimentation. Seasonal peaks, particularly during summer months and holiday periods, remain critical, with consumers responding to limited-edition flavors and promotional campaigns. Brands are increasingly leveraging these windows to introduce new products, maximize visibility, and reinforce brand loyalty.
