Organic Vanilla Market Trends

• Growing demand for natural/clean-label processed foods to drive market growth

Organic vanilla is in high demand due to the rising demand for organic foods. Organic vanilla is grown in soil free of chemical fertilizers, as synthetic pesticides and herbicides are prohibited in organic vanilla farming. It has been minimally processed, with no fumigation or irradiation, to retain its natural flavor and aroma. Companies involved in organic farming and manufacturing can obtain certification from numerous regulatory bodies worldwide. Organic foods have grown in popularity as more people know their advantages. Menu descriptions and food packaging labels have a strong influence on consumer preferences. People are increasingly interested in clean-label products as they are 100% natural and do not contain any synthetic ingredients such as preservatives, artificial colors, or flavors.

Vanilla is a spice flavoring various foods such as cookies, pastries, cakes, ice cream, and desserts. Vanilla is a natural and plant-based flavoring ingredient highly preferred by plant-based and clean-label food manufacturers. The growing trend of clean-label food and veganism will significantly impact the organic vanilla market CAGR during the forecast period. Thus, the growing emphasis on transparency, the growing focus on health, and increased interest in what is incorporated in commonly consumed food and beverages, among other products, have resulted in an increasing number of consumers remaining vigilant when purchasing these products, thereby driving organic vanilla market revenue growth. For example, in May 2022, Solvay invested in Suanfarma's Cipan production plant in Lisbon, Portugal, to expand its biotechnological abilities and promote the production of natural vanillin.
