Antioxidant-rich foods and beverages, such as tea, have become more popular as people become more aware of their health benefits. In recent years, green tea has gained a lot of popularity among customers as a rapid supply of nutrients. Consumers now have more money to spend on high-quality products that help them maintain and improve their health. The increased demand for natural, organic, and clean label items has fueled the growing popularity of these products around the world.
Due to its high nutritional value and considerable processing of green tea leaves in manufacturing facilities, green tea is a costly beverage. As a result, only a small percentage of the population in developing countries can purchase green tea. Over the forecast period, this factor is expected to hamper the expansion of the green tea market. Furthermore, a lack of awareness among people in rural parts of developing countries about the availability of healthy tea beverages such as matcha green tea is expected to stifle the market even further.
Major participants have begun focusing on new product development to meet the rising demand for high-nutrition beverages such as matcha green tea and green tea. Tetley, a well-known green tea brand from the Tata Consumer Product., launched a new green tea product called ‘green tea immune,' which is high in vitamin C and helps to boost a person's immunity. To appeal to a wider population, the company has produced the product in four various flavors: traditional, ginger & mint, mango variation, and lemon & honey. In the future, such factors are expected to enhance the industry.
