Estimates project a substantial rise in worldwide phytochemical sales, reaching US$ 7,436 million in 2023. A comprehensive industry analysis foresees the global phytochemical market surging at a robust CAGR of 7.1%, poised to attain US$ 14,821 million by 2033.
Diverse applications of phytochemicals are anticipated to fuel growth across various end-use sectors such as food and beverages, nutraceuticals, and pharmaceuticals. By 2033, the food and beverage segment is expected to dominate significantly, while animal nutrition sales are projected to witness a notable increase of 13.4%.
In the nutraceutical industry, the demand for phytochemicals and plant extracts is on the rise, utilized as health supplements and anti-aging agents. This heightened demand reflects a growing trend in the use of phytochemicals in dietary supplements, indicating substantial future growth.
Increasing awareness regarding the detrimental effects of chemically processed foods is likely to boost the popularity of plant extracts and ingredients. However, challenges such as raw material shortages, fluctuating prices, trade dynamics, and the availability of alternative plant-derived products present constraints to the market’s expansion.
Crucially, it’s worth noting that phytochemicals and herbal extracts are directly derived from crude plant materials, showcasing significant variations in composition, quality, and therapeutic effects. The recent surge in traditional medicine consumption, particularly Ayurveda, has unexpectedly propelled the utilization of natural plant ingredients in Ayurvedic manufacturing.
“Phytochemicals are products derived from organic plants and are used in the manufacturing of organic food and supplement manufacturing. The nutraceutical industry has seen an increase in demand for phytochemicals and plant-based products due to the growth in organic agriculture.” – says a lead analyst at Future Market Insights.
