Growth Driver in the Global Ginger Market

With people becoming increasingly health conscious

The demand for natural products is going to elevate the growth of the global ginger market in the future. Ginger is increasingly being used since it offers a wide range of healthy benefits, including facilitation of digestion, reduction of inflammation, and boosting of immunity. The increasing preference for organic, chemical-free products and the increasing need for herbal teas and supplements is also adding to ginger's increasing role in health-conscious consumer diets, which is positively influencing market growth. Jul 2024, Naga entrepreneurs Moa and Tempi launched 'Ginger Nova,' an alcohol-free probiotic drink brewed with fermented ginger and other natural ingredients, under the brand NOVA by NOVA Traders and Manufacturers.

Increasing Culinary Usage

Ginger’s versatility in cooking has significantly contributed to its market growth. It is widely used in various cuisines, including Asian, Indian, and Middle Eastern, for its unique flavor and aromatic qualities. Ginger is essential in curries, sauces, soups, desserts, and beverages like ginger tea and ginger ale. Ginger is being used more in fusion foods and innovative food products with changing global food trends, thereby increasing its demand across international markets, particularly in the beverage and snack industries. Jul 2024 CURRYiT, one of the food startups, launches India's first preservative-free Ginger Garlic Paste that is a challenge to other brands which are using additives and preservatives in their products.

Growing Demand for Functional Beverages

Rising demand for functional beverages, like ginger-based drinks, has spurred growth in the global ginger market. Ginger is added to several beverages such as ginger tea, ginger beer, and energy drinks because it can easily digest food, suppress nausea, and improve overall health. With the trend of consumers toward functional and health-enhancing beverages, ginger has gained significant ground in the market, especially in emerging markets where the demand for herbal and functional drinks is on the rise.  August 2023, Olipop has launched a 'healthy ginger ale' with a prebiotic plant fibre blend, including cassava root, marshmallow root, and chicory root inulin. It contains only 5g of sugar per serving and gives 9g of fiber for digestive health.

Obstacles in the International Ginger Market

Climate Change and Environmental Conditions

The global ginger market is facing many obstacles with climate change and irregular climatic conditions. Ginger cultivation needs specific environmental conditions such as a warm, humid climate, and well-drained soil. Climatic stresses such as higher temperatures, unequal rainfall patterns, and episodes of floods or drought can adversely affect the crop productivity and quality. Such climate stress causes the decline in production and the price level goes high due to an unstable supply chain. Higher adaptation cost will be associated with it which creates disturbance in the whole market structure of the ginger crop. Highly Labor-Intensive

Cultivation and Supply Chain Issues

Ginger farming is very labor intensive, requiring lots of handwork in planting, harvesting, and processing. Manual labor makes it vulnerable to labor shortages, high wages, and a fluctuating workforce supply, especially in developing countries where most ginger is cultivated. There are also transportation and storage challenges and spoilage issues associated with ginger supply chains due to the perishable nature of the crop. These issues can easily lead to unstable supply, price fluctuations, and shortage in the international market and thus affect the growth in the market.

United States Ginger Market

Being the largest consumer market for ginger, the United States holds a substantial share of the global ginger market in the backdrop of rising health-awareness and demand for natural ingredients. Ginger is consumed as it adds flavor to foods while its popularity in beverages like ginger tea and ginger ale also grows by increasing wellness and functional foods demand. Moreover, the U.S. is witnessing an emerging interest in organic and natural supplements, such as ginger, which has anti-inflammatory properties and helps in digestion and further propels the market into growth. Oct 2024, Nutraland USA, a pioneer in nutraceuticals, is looking forward to the official introduction of its premium black ginger extract, Actiz! ng™, in the United States at the SupplySide West (SSW) tradeshow in Las Vegas, NV.

Germany Ginger Market

Germany is one of the largest markets for ginger in Europe. It is used both as a culinary ingredient and as a health product. In response to the growing consumer demand for natural remedies and functional foods, ginger-based products such as teas, energy drinks, and supplements are gaining popularity. There is also a solid organic food market in Germany, which includes organic ginger. The health and wellness conscious nature of European consumers is a significant factor that has increased demand for ginger and makes Germany a key market in the European ginger sector. Ginger x MassiveMusic opened in Berlin on April 2019, marking the sixth global office for MassiveMusic. The companies have teamed up to help agencies and brands strengthen the musical element of their stories.

Indian Ginger Market

India is the largest producer and consumer of ginger and thus plays a central role in the world ginger market. Ginger forms an indispensable part of Indian cooking, with forms ranging from fresh to dry to powder, used to prepare curries, sauces, and drinks. Moreover, ginger forms a crucial part of Ayurvedic medicine, hence its very high domestic demand. India’s export of ginger also contributes significantly to the global market, with growing international interest in Indian ginger for its flavor and medicinal properties.

Brazil Ginger Market

Brazil is one of the leading countries in the Latin American ginger market. The country’s favorable climate and agricultural practices make it a key producer of ginger. Ginger is used widely in the food sector in Brazil. The main usage of ginger in Brazil is in traditional foods and beverages such as ginger beer. With increased awareness about the health benefits of ginger, which include anti-inflammatory and digestive properties, demand for ginger-based products increases. The export of ginger from Brazil to international markets is thus driving the regional ginger market. The Kerala Agricultural University has been awarded an Indian patent along with Arjuna Natural Private Ltd., Aluva, for developing a stable gingerol product from the ginger variety Karthika released by the KAU.

Egypt Ginger Market

Egypt has emerged as a major market for ginger in the Middle East & Africa region, mainly being used for medicinal and culinary purposes. Ginger is used in traditional medicine, especially in cases of digestive disorders, and in popular beverages, including ginger tea. Increasing consumer knowledge about the health benefits of ginger is driving demand in Egypt. As health trends grow in the region, demand for ginger-based products such as supplements and herbal teas will increase in Egypt and throughout the MENA region.
