Our researchers analyzed the data with 2022 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
The wide availability of substitutes is notably driving the herbal tea Market growth. The demand for herbal teas is increasing due to the increase in health-conscious consumers. Herbal teas improve blood pressure and circulation, increase good cholesterol and lower bad cholesterol. Herbal teas are often marketed for their perceived health benefits, such as reducing stress, improving sleep, and boosting immunity. Consumers are looking for more convenient ways to consume herbal teas, including ready-to-drink formats and single-serving tea bags.
Herbal tea makers are experimenting with new flavor combinations and ingredients to create unique and varied blends that cater to the diverse tastes and changing preferences of consumers. As consumers are becoming more conscious of the environmental impact of herbal tea products, they seek out herbal teas that are sustainably sourced and made without the use of harmful chemicals. The demand for herbal tea is increasing, which will boost the growth of the market during the forecast period.
Rising demand for products with health benefits is a key trend influencing the herbal tea Market growth. Changing consumer preferences for online sales channels are having a positive impact on the growth of the market. The prevalence of online distribution channels in Tier 2 cities in emerging markets such as India and China is creating opportunities for vendors in the market to expand their product range. As consumers become more health-conscious, the demand for herbal teas is expected to grow. Online channels offer consumers a wide range of products at discounted prices. Demand for herbal products in online sales channels has increased steadily in recent years. This trend is driven by several factors, including the growing interest in natural and alternative medicines, the convenience of online shopping, and the increasing availability of quality herbal products online. Online sales of these products increase as consumers have access to a wide variety of products from around the world, including rare and hard-to-find herbal teas.
Online retailers often provide detailed product information and customer reviews so consumers can make an informed decision about which products to purchase. Another advantage of buying herbal tea products online is that they are often cheaper online than in traditional brick-and-mortar stores. With less overhead, online retailers can offer lower prices and often offer promotions and discounts not available in brick-and-mortar stores. It also improves convenience by allowing consumers to pick up their orders or have the product delivered to their doorstep. This is especially beneficial for consumers living in areas with limited access to herbal tea products. Overall, demand for herbal tea products in online sales channels will continue to grow as consumers increasingly turn to natural and alternative medicines and online retailers continue to improve their products and services. Therefore, the growing popularity of e-commerce will have a positive impact on the growth of the market during the forecast period.
The rapid growth of e-commerce is challenging the herbal tea Market growth. Due to the availability of several prominent herbal tea alternatives, such as regular milk/tea, fruit-infused water, energy drinks, juices, and other healthy beverages, vendors can face challenges. These alternatives are readily available in the market in a variety of forms at affordable prices. Despite the growing popularity of herbal teas, consumer awareness of the potential health benefits and uses of the various herbs used in such teas is still limited. Consumers should be educated about the benefits of tea and the different blends available to drive demand.
In addition, millennials are expected to be the major customer base for the herbal tea market as they make up the bulk of the current workforce. Also, the market lacks standardization regarding the quality, purity, and potency of the herbal ingredients used. This can lead to fluctuations in herbal tea quality and affect consumer confidence in the product. Herbal teas also face stiff competition from other beverage categories, such as coffee, energy drinks, and flavored waters. Manufacturers must find ways to differentiate their products and appeal to health-conscious consumers. Therefore, the availability of numerous alternatives will hamper the growth of the market during the forecast period.

APAC is estimated to contribute 39% to the growth of the global herbal tea market during the forecast period. Technavio’s analysts have elaborately explained the regional trends and drivers that shape the market during the forecast period.
APAC dominated the market with a high market share in 2022. Consumers in APAC are health conscious, driving demand for herbal teas. Due to the increasing disposable income of consumers in this region, there is a clear bias towards premium products. Global and regional herbal tea suppliers are growing their consumer base in APAC by increasing their e-commerce presence, especially through third-party online vendors such as Amazon.com Inc (Amazon). The rise in internet penetration and the rising trend towards online shopping in the region have also contributed significantly to the growth of the market.

In 2020, the outbreak of the new coronavirus infection had a negative impact on the global economy and various industries, including the food and beverage industry. To curb the growing number of COVID-19 cases many countries across the world imposed strict lockdown restrictions, disrupting supply chain activities in most industries. All this negatively impacted herbal tea sales in the first half of 2020. However, demand from online channels increased as consumers rapidly shifted to online purchases. However, in the first half of 2021, the start of massive COVID-19 vaccination campaigns by the governments of India, China, and Japan reduced the number of COVID-19 cases. Since then, lockdown restrictions have eased, and offline stores in the region have reopened, spurring demand for herbal teas. Hence, increasing online penetration of herbal tea had a positive impact on the growth of the market during the forecast period.
