Growing truffle tourism is an emerging trend shaping the market growth. Another trend emerging in the market is the promotion of tourism based on truffle hunting by market players. Visiting truffle farms is among the main tourist attractions in major truffle-producing countries such as Italy, France, and Spain. There are several truffle hunting tours organized each year in these countries, and the number of tourists visiting truffle farms is increasing every year. Furthermore, the major commercial producers of truffles, such as Greece, Israel, and the UK, focus on truffle tourism. Various vendors are offering truffle tourism to their showrooms, where visitors will be offered access to the vendor kitchen to experience varied types of truffles, their cooking styles, and even tasting truffle dishes.
For instance, Sabatino Tartufi Srl offers truffle showroom visits for people, where they are offered private dinners, private classes on truffles, and private cooking demos and tastings. Such tourism experiences are expected to knowledge visitors about the type of truffles and provide opportunities to experience types of truffle dishes. Thus, the growth in tourism based on truffle hunting can positively impact the truffle market during the forecast period.
Constraints in truffle production are a significant challenge hindering market growth. Truffles are expensive because they are difficult to grow commercially. Currently, truffle production is limited by geographic and climatic conditions (sub-Mediterranean conditions are suitable for truffle cultivation). Truffles are also highly vulnerable to changing weather conditions, diseases, and pests. Truffle hunting and cultivation are expensive and time-consuming processes without guaranteed results. The cost of specially trained dogs to locate truffles underground is over USD 1,000. However, trained dogs may take several weeks or months to find a small number of truffles. Truffle is cultivated by grafting the truffle fungus on the roots of certain trees.
Moreover, truffles can get easily spoiled as they are delicate. The cost of cultivating these trees is also high. Truffle production would require thousands of trees, and there is no guarantee the fungi will grow on every tree. Hence, truffle production is a difficult and time-consuming procedure. Thus, the constraints in truffle production will impede the growth of the truffle market during the forecast period.
The demand for truffles is majorly driven by the consumer preference for healthy convenience food owing to the busy lifestyle and consumers are transitioning to nutritious and healthy convenience food and beverage. The growing food processing industry, led by the increased use of functional food ingredients in nutrition bars, confectionaries, savoury snacks, and other processed food, directly impacts the growth of the market in focus. Consumers across the globe are becoming more health-conscious owing to the rising rates of obesity and other health conditions. This creates the demand for various types of nutraceutical ingredients, such as vitamins, minerals, proteins, and dietary supplement ingredients, which help to prevent multiple health issues. Rising income levels coupled with a growing urban population are driving the growth of the truffle market during the forecast period.
The market share growth by the black truffles segment will be significant during the forecast period. The black truffles segment is expected to witness a steady growth rate during the forecast period, led by the rising demand for black truffles from restaurant chains across France, the UK, the US, China, Hong Kong, Singapore, and others. Black truffle is usually found under oak trees from September to December.
The black truffle segment was the largest and was valued at USD 157.12 million in 2018

Further, black truffles are in high demand among end-users, such as Michelin-star restaurants and manufacturers of premium packaged food products that use truffles as an essential ingredient. Therefore, vendors that harvest black truffles with rich nutrients and aroma are expected to witness greater demand from such end-users. Hence, vendors are expected to adopt advanced techniques to cultivate black truffles during the forecast period to keep the nutrients, taste, and aroma intact in black truffles, which, in turn, will drive the growth of the truffles market during the forecast period.

Technavio’s analysts have elaborately explained the regional trends and drivers that shape the market during the forecast period. The growing popularity of truffles is mainly attributable to a rise in fine dining restaurants across China, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Macau, among other countries. The growth of fine dining restaurants in the region is growing with the rise of the millennial population. It is estimated that one-third of the millennial population in APAC eat at fine dining restaurants at least once a month, and in China, the average visits of Millennials to fine dining establishments are around two to three times a month. This can drive the demand for truffles in the region as truffles are widely used in these fine-dining restaurants.
However, the truffle market in APAC faces challenges from lower-cost substitutes like truffle oils. China produces less expensive and low-quality truffles, which are widely available in the region. Moreover, chefs in the region use truffle oil instead of expensive truffles to obtain the desired flavour and aroma profile, which could negatively impact the truffle market in APAC during the forecast period.
Companies are implementing various strategies, such as strategic alliances, partnerships, mergers and acquisitions, geographical expansion, and product/service launches, to enhance their presence in the market.
