The Apple Watch is the largest wellness product line in the UK and Europe in 2026, with Apple holding an estimated 17.2% of European wearables revenue. In supplements, Vitabiotics retains the top brand position in UK mainstream retail.
No research firm publishes one share table covering all wellness products. Watches, vitamins and protein powders are tracked separately, so this list compares the leader of each category using the best data available.
How we ranked them
The list takes one leading product line per category and orders them by the sales evidence available. Ranks 1 to 7 rest on published revenue or revenue share. Ranks 8 to 10 are editorial judgement, because brand-level sales are not public. Entries 11 to 100 are grouped by category and not ranked, because the public data cannot support a numbered order at that depth.
We preferred company accounts and named trackers, such as IDC and Mintel, over forecast-led market reports. Three limits apply:
- Mixed geography: some figures are Europe-only, while others are group or global revenue.
- Company versus product: wearables shares cover the whole company, including earbuds, not only the watch or band.
- Paywalled detail: Mintel's brand-by-brand shares sit in its paid report, so we cite only its public summary.
Market-size estimates also vary widely with definitions. For European dietary supplements, they range from $26.6bn for 2024 to $48.88bn for 2025.
The top 10 at a glance
| Rank | Product line | Category | Best available evidence | What the figure covers |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Apple Watch | Smartwatch | 17.2% revenue share | Apple, all European wearables, 2025 |
| 2 | Xiaomi Smart Band | Fitness band | 5.0% revenue share | Xiaomi, all European wearables, 2025 |
| 3 | Garmin watches | Sports watch | 3.0% revenue share | Garmin, all European wearables, 2025 |

| 5 | Myprotein | Sports nutrition | £609.1m revenue | THG Nutrition, all markets, 2025 |

The top 10 explained
1. Apple Watch
Apple leads European wearables by revenue, ahead of Samsung's 9.0%, so Galaxy Watch is the closest alternative. Apple's figure also includes AirPods, which overstates the watch alone. Global unit data looks different: IDC has Huawei ahead in smartwatch shipments at 18.8%, against Apple's 17.2%.
Best for: iPhone owners who want everyday health tracking in one device.
2. Xiaomi Smart Band
Xiaomi holds 45.9% of worldwide wrist-band shipments, which makes it the clear volume leader in bands. Its strength is low-cost activity tracking. Buyers should note that IDC expects wrist bands to decline 1.1% in 2026.
Best for: first-time trackers on a budget.
3. Garmin
Garmin's European revenue share is modest, but it holds a distinct position in endurance sports and outdoor tracking. That focus lets it compete without matching the wider phone ecosystems of Apple and Samsung.
Best for: runners, cyclists and outdoor athletes who value training data.
4. Holland & Barrett own-label
Holland & Barrett is the UK's largest specialist health chain, with 809 stores and digital sales of £249.4m. Its revenue includes third-party brands, so own-label sales are smaller than the headline figure.
Best for: shoppers who want in-store choice across vitamins and health foods.
5. Myprotein
Myprotein anchors THG Nutrition, whose revenue rose 5.0% in 2025 after falling 11.9% in 2024. The figure covers all THG Nutrition sales, including outside Europe.
Best for: regular gym users buying protein and sports supplements online.
6. Huel
NutraIngredients describes Huel as dominant in meal replacements, and Danone agreed to buy it in a deal reported at about €1bn in March 2026. Revenue was £214m in its last audited year cited at the time. The £250m FY2025 figure came from a source reported by Dow Jones.
Best for: people who want a convenient occasional meal, not a full diet replacement.
7. Vitabiotics
Vitabiotics retains the top position in Mintel's UK mainstream retail coverage. It is known for life-stage ranges such as Pregnacare, Wellman and Perfectil. It ranks lower here only because it is smaller than the wider categories above it.
Best for: shoppers seeking a product designed for a specific life stage.
8. Berocca
Bayer owns Berocca and Sanatogen, and Mintel lists Berocca among the UK's leading names. IMARC ranks Bayer as a European market leader, with particular strength in pharmacies, though Berocca's own share is not public. It is a costly way to get vitamin D alone, at £1.49 per 1000IU in Ethical Consumer's comparison.
Best for: people who prefer an effervescent format.
9. Centrum
Haleon's Centrum is also among Mintel's named UK leaders. IMARC puts its global revenue at $1.6bn, but with no European split, so it cannot be placed higher with confidence. Like Berocca, it faces pressure from challengers, and Mintel says the top five brands' combined share fell from 44% to 40% in two years.
Best for: people who want a familiar pharmacy multivitamin.
10. Oura Ring
Oura dominates its category by share, but rings made up only 0.8% of wearable shipments in Q2 2026. Its share is global, and its European sales are not separately published in our sources, which is why it sits last.
Best for: sleep and recovery tracking without a screen on the wrist.
The next 90: entries 11 to 100
These 90 brands complete the top 100, but their order within each group carries no ranking. Each appears in a market report, retail report or published brand list we reviewed, and inclusion is not an endorsement.

| Apps and recovery | 9 | Calm, Headspace, Strava, MyFitnessPal, Noom, Peloton, Flo, Theragun, Hyperice | GII, InnerBuddies, SourceReady, BGR |
One entry deserves a note. Optimum Nutrition claims to be the UK's top sports nutrition brand by value, citing Circana retail data to January 2026. Myprotein ranks higher here on total group revenue, so the two figures measure different things.
What is shaping the market in 2026
The market is less concentrated than brand fame suggests, and challengers are gaining ground. Four shifts stand out:
- Fragmentation: the top European supplement companies hold only about 35–42% of revenue, according to IMARC.
- Country weight: Germany leads European supplements with a 25.0% share, followed by the UK at 18.4%. In wearables, Germany generated about $9.0bn and the UK $7.7bn in 2025.
- Ingredient demand: magnesium led Holland & Barrett's 2025 searches at 8.5 million, ahead of collagen at 6.2 million.
- Younger buyers: 83% of under-35s use supplements, against 65% of over-55s, though Mintel notes low daily use among the younger group.
Wearables demand also remains firm. IDC reports Western European shipments up 12.1% in Q2 2026, with growth of 5.9% forecast for the full year.
How to choose safely
Market share shows what people buy, not what will work for you. Start with your actual need, then check the evidence behind the claim.
- Check whether you need a supplement: the NHS says most people should get their nutrients from a varied, balanced diet. The main general exception is vitamin D in autumn and winter, which the UK government advises for everyone.
- Be sceptical of claims: UK supplements fall under food law, not medicines regulation, and the Advertising Standards Authority has upheld complaints about unsupported claims, many of them on social media.
- Read the wearable's status: consumer readings do not automatically establish clinical validity. Look for medical-device certification if you rely on a specific health feature.
- Check privacy settings: health data is a special category under GDPR, so review what an app collects and shares.

Frequently asked questions
What is the number one wellness product in the UK and Europe? On the available revenue data, Apple Watch leads. That figure covers Apple's full wearables range, including earbuds.
What is the UK's top vitamin brand? Mintel places Vitabiotics first in UK mainstream retail. Mainstream retail is one measure of the market, and Mintel's full brand shares are in its paid report.
How big is the UK supplement market? It depends on the definition. Mintel's narrow measure was about £568m in 2023, while Grand View Research's broader measure was $4.79bn for 2024.
Does a bigger market share mean a better product? No. Share reflects price, distribution and marketing as well as quality, so it is a starting point rather than a verdict.
