The future for probiotics is promising in Latin America. The Latin American probiotics market is expected to grow by 6.74% annually over the next 5 years, reaching a value of $7.73 billion USD by 2025. The COVID-19 pandemic has only intensified demand and the market for dietary supplements will likely soar in the wake of the crisis.  

Quarterra foresees a huge opportunity for new entrants in Latin America’s probiotic market. However, achieving success requires navigating a complicated environment of highly specific consumer attitudes against a backdrop of uneven regulatory barriers. This paper explores the opportunities and challenges present in the Latin American market for probiotics. Quarterra also recommends key considerations that firms must have in mind while mapping their strategy for the sector.

Fields of Promise: AgTech in South America

The food and agriculture industry is undergoing extraordinary change, driven by shifting demographics, globalization, sustainability pressures, new energy sources, concerns about food safety and security, and increased health and wellness awareness. While no one of these challenges is uniquely new, collectively they have become increasingly obvious since the early 2000s when the rise of emerging economies, such as China, and the expanding global drive for biofuels led to unprecedented demand. As a result, the food and agriculture asset class emerged as a new and highly relevant investment space with the ability to channel much needed capital to this vital sector

In this paper, in a joint effort by Quarterra and Valoral Advisors, we review the emerging AgTech landscape in South America, share a map of early start ups, and explore possible paths of evolution for the sector.
