This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.

Weight loss services providers in Canada have struggled to appeal to the growing number of overweight or obese individuals due to rising external competition and an increase in the national unemployment rate from the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 and 2021. However, some consumers were more willing to purchase the industry's ancillary products, such as supplements and meal replacements. A larger percentage of the Canadian population was more reluctant to purchase industry services due to the increase in economic uncertainty. As a result, industry revenue has been declining at a CAGR of 7.2% over the past five years and is expected to total $411.6 million in 2023, when revenue will jump an estimated 0.2%.
