APAC: largest revenue generating region for herbal tea

The herbal tea market in APAC was valued at more than $3 billion in 2015 and will grow at a CAGR of around 5% by 2020. The growing health awareness and an increase in the number of health-conscious consumers will make APAC the dominating region during the forecast period. Tea is the most preferred hot beverage in APAC countries like India, Japan, and China. Herbal tea is considered to be an healthier option compared to most other beverages and is replacing high sugar-containing carbonated drinks in the APAC market. Such choices are encouraging vendors to produce and market a wide range of new premium variants of herbal tea infused with new flavors.

The health benefits associated with the consumption of tea is prompting the demand for these products among various consumers. The vendors in the market are introducing innovative packaging solutions and switching from standard thin packs, tetra packs, and tea bags to wooden and ceramic gift packs to attract more consumers. Tea products are made of various roots, seeds, dried flowers, and leaves. Some of the specialty herbal tea available in the market include herbal chai tea, bamboo tea, detox tea, mint mix, and ruby red rosehip tea,” says Manjunath Reddy, a lead analyst at Technavio, specializing in research on non-alcoholic beverages.
