The dried herbs market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $6.09 billion in 2023 to $6.43 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.6%. The growth observed in the historic period can be attributed to factors such as the use of traditional herbal medicine, culinary traditions, techniques for preservation and flavoring, the influence of global trade routes, and the preservation of traditional culinary and medicinal knowledge.
The dried herbs market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $8.32 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.7%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to sustainability and organic farming practices, innovations in packaging and presentation, the fusion of global culinary influences, evolving dietary preferences, and the continued growth of online retail and e-commerce. Major trends expected in this period include technological advancements in drying processes, an increased focus on culinary exploration, a rising demand for organic varieties, the popularity of home gardening and do-it-yourself trends, as well as innovations in packaging for freshness.
The anticipated surge in the consumption of processed food is set to drive the growth of the dried herbs market in the coming years. The upswing in disposable income, attributed to economic growth, has generated a heightened demand for processed foods. This shift in consumption patterns towards processed foods is particularly evident in urban areas and among the younger population, driven by the constraints of time for domestic cooking. To expedite cooking times, food processing companies incorporate dried herbs and other ingredients for flavoring or coloring, amplifying the demand for dried herbs. A case in point is the April 2021 report from the Ministry of Commerce & Industry, which highlights a substantial 26.51% increase in India's export of processed food products during April-February (2020-21) compared to the previous year. Notably, in the first 11 months of the fiscal year (2020-21), exports of miscellaneous processed items such as Indian snacks, sauces, starch products, and vegetable flours experienced a remarkable 36% growth, reaching a total value of INR 437,980 million ($5.5 billion). Consequently, the escalating consumption of processed food is poised to elevate the demand for dried herbs in the forecast period.
The anticipated expansion of the foodservice industry is poised to drive the growth of the dried herbs market in the foreseeable future. The foodservice industry encompasses establishments involved in preparing, serving, and delivering food and beverages to customers, such as restaurants, cafes, and catering services. The burgeoning foodservice sector contributes to the demand for dried herbs, as chefs and culinary professionals often opt for the convenience and extended shelf life offered by dried herbs over their fresh counterparts. A notable illustration of this trend is reflected in the July 2023 report from the USDA Economic Research Service, a US-based government agency. The report indicates that food service facilities supplied food worth $1.34 trillion in 2022, showcasing an increase from $1.16 trillion in the preceding year, 2021. In 2021, the combined value of food supplied by the foodservice and food retailing industries stood at approximately $2.11 trillion, and this figure saw a rise to $2.39 trillion in 2022. Therefore, the anticipated growth in the foodservice industry is set to amplify the demand for dried herbs in the forecast period.
Strategic partnerships have emerged as a prominent trend in the dried herbs market, with companies actively collaborating with relevant counterparts to harness shared resources, foster innovation, and extend their influence into new markets. A case in point is the February 2021 partnership between Feyecon Development & Implementation B.V, a Netherlands-based company specializing in innovative food product drying solutions, and VNK BV, a Dutch company focusing on the drying of leaf herbs and herbal roots. Together, they utilized green CO2 technology to develop herb flavor powders from waste materials, showcasing a collaborative effort to create new products and enhance their market presence. This trend underscores the significance of synergistic partnerships in driving growth and innovation within the dried herbs market.
Major companies in the dried herbs market are actively engaged in the development of innovative products, with a particular focus on advancements such as dry herb vaporizers. These devices, designed for the consumption of dry herbs such as tobacco or cannabis, utilize vaporization rather than combustion. By heating the material at lower temperatures, dry herb vaporizers enable the active compounds to vaporize without reaching the point of combustion. An illustrative example is the August 2023 launch of 'Celsius' by AUXO, a leading global player in vaporization technology based in Colombia. Celsius, AUXO's latest flagship 2-in-1 vaporizer, is designed for both dry herbs and concentrates, providing exceptional vapor performance within seconds. This compact and versatile vaporizer features a 360&de rotatable mouthpiece and a distinctive airflow window, ensuring uniform heat distribution.

This highlights the commitment of major companies to introducing innovative products that cater to evolving consumer preferences in the dried herbs market.
