GLOBAL CRISES IMPACTING ORGANIC SPICES MARKET

COVID-19 IMPACT

Organic Spices Industry Had a Negative Effect Due to Supply disruptions during COVID-19 Pandemic

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the market experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden market growth reflected by the rise in CAGR is attributable to the market’s growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels.

The COVID-19 pandemic provided a negative impulse to the organic spices market, particularly at the initial stages of lockdowns. The problems with the supply chain, the lack of labor, and transportation constraints delayed the harvesting, processing, and transportation of organic spices worldwide. The many small-scale organic producers and farmers were not able to provide the market because they lacked access to markets, among other resources. Further, the consumer spending on fancy and non-essential food items like organic spices is declining with the increase in economic uncertainty.

LATEST TREND

At the same time, online sales are rising rapidly, projected to continue at about 8% CAGR in 2024-2030 as buyers enjoy the convenience and clarity of origin. The other hot trend is that there is a sprouting of new functional formats along with ingenious blends of spices, as the companies come up with new blends, steam-treated or dry-heated products, and region-based flavor profiles. But the most decisive trend is the growing interest in single-origin and direct-trade spices, which are of high quality, support smallholder farmers, and introduce higher supply-chain transparency.

MARKET DYNAMICS

Market dynamics include driving and restraining factors, opportunities and challenges stating the market conditions.                          

DRIVING FACTOR

Health Awareness Fuels Market Growth with Rising Demand

The consumers are shifting more to the organic spices because organic spices are useful to the body, and they do not contain any toxic chemicals or additives that may harm the body. These spices are said to possess better nutritional value and natural medicinal properties compared to the conventional spices grown.

Government Support Boosts Market Growth Through Increased Supply

Governments of various countries are promoting organic farming through subsidizing, helping in certification, and raising awareness. This has witnessed the increase in the production area and the supply of the organic spices in the market. The supply chains to organic products are being beefed up as more farmers adopt sustainable production. These trends are contributing towards the growth in an antagonistic way and resulting Organic Spices Market growth.

RESTRAINING FACTOR

High Costs Hinder Market Growth in Price-Sensitive Regions

High cost of production and price of the final product are among the broad concealing factors of the organic spices market. Organic farming includes more labor-intensive practices and natural inputs and also goes through the certification processes, and this makes it more costly to produce. These additional expenses are passed over to the consumer, and at the present time, organic spices are being sold at a significantly higher price compared to conventional spices. The price-sensitive customers (especially in the developing world) might therefore turn to the cheaper non-organic produce, thereby limiting the growth in the market.

E-commerce Expansion Drives Market Growth and Global Reach

Opportunity

One of the growth opportunities in the organic spices market is the rising e-commerce and direct-to-consumer channels. Through online systems, small-scale producers of organic spices are able to access markets globally with more convenience. Consumers are turning to purchase more organic products online due to convenience and varieties of products. This online transformation will result in increasing the sales and the market presence.

Lack of Unified Certification Hampers Market Growth Globally

Challenge

One of the threats of the organic spices market is the absence of unity in certification and quality assurance among the regions. Uneven laws and different standards of organic certification baffle both the producers and consumers. This impacts the confidence in the authenticity of products and reduces the scope of international trade. A challenge that still has to be overcome to get to market expansion is transparency and international alignment of certification.
