Pune, India -- (SBWire) -- 12/19/2018 --Market Overview:
Tea has gradually earned its popularity as a beverage which has been instrumental in shaping the tea market. Health-conscious consumers invariably prefer functional drinks over other carbonated beverages. To tap these consumers, various F&B companies are foraying into the tea space and launching different variants of tea-based beverages. In addition, the introduction of newer varieties of teas such as purple tea, green tea, and matcha have also contributed to the growth of the global tea market. Green tea, kombucha, and matcha tea, of late, has gained immense foothold in the tea market since they have functional properties, the most desirable one being weight loss. The Global Tea Market is expanding rapidly and is expected to reach a significant high over the forecast period of 2018-2023. One of the preliminary factors driving the growth of the tea market is the health benefits associated with it. Moreover, such tea varieties are increasingly being introduced as ready-to-drink beverages which further augments the growth of the market. Crossbreeding of tea varieties has led to the introduction of new clones which coupled with the adoption of good agricultural practices has led to the betterment of tea varieties. However, the growth of the global tea market might be hindered by raising awareness regarding the ill effects related to caffeine, which is found in tea. Tea is proven to have plentiful health benefits such as strengthening the body's immune system, bones, and teeth. Moreover, being loaded with antioxidants, the intake of tea is also considered to reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases, cancer, and kidney stones other than improving cholesterol levels and blood vessel functions.
