Spices and Herbs Extracts Market Analysis
The global spice and herb extracts market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 7.3% during the forecast period.
Herbs and spice extracts that are more aligned toward health and wellness, as well as products that have a high penetration rate across artisanal food, culinary preparations, and generic household foods, are likely to maintain dominance over the coming years. Extracts such as ginger, dried capsicum/pimenta, pepper, curcuma, cinnamon, and cloves, have the highest potential for growth in the European market. The increasing demand for a diverse mix of herbs and spices, mostly related to the increasing popularity of ethnic cuisines and healthy foods, and the growing consumption of convenient, processed, and ready-to-eat dishes is expected to drive the demand for ethnic spice blends. Furthermore, most of the new products launched in the market are labeled as 'street food' to cater to a unique set of buyers.
The global food and beverage industry is witnessing a rapid change in eating preferences, and demand for botanical flavors is on the rise. Spice and herbs are demanded extracts to add flavors and innovate recipes in food and beverage applications. To meet this demand, companies are also equipping themselves. For instance, in 2021, Sensient Natural Ingredients LLC announced the acquisition of New Mexico Chili Products Inc., a dehydrated chili production facility in Deming, that processes capsicums and a variety of specialty chilies for commercial use and sale to CPG food manufacturers, spice blenders, and foodservice customers. With this acquisition, the company will be able to increase its sales volume across the globe.
The global spice and herb extracts market has experienced steady but sluggish growth. This is mainly due to continuous developments in recipes and beverage flavors. Further, increasing preference for botanical flavors among consumers, an increasing number of consumers eating out, and a wide range of applications of spices and herbs extracts are propelling the demand for the market. However, inconsistencies in the prices of spices and herbs and the high cost of production are affecting the growth of this market. Finally, the increasing demand for variations in flavored food products is creating a growth opportunity for the spice and herbs extracts market.
