Market Insights
Commonly used for the preparation of a variety of local delicacies in East Asian countries, Shiitake is also used in the pharmaceutical and personal care industries. Shiitake mushrooms offer a rich, umami flavor profile which is highly sought after. Use of shiitake mushroom in processed food to create a rich and robust flavoring profile is expected to boost the demand for shiitake mushrooms. Moreover, recognition of its medicinal attributes has resulted in the increased demand of shiitake mushrooms for the production of cosmetic & personal care products as well as dietary supplements. The high consumption of shiitake mushrooms in China, Japan, and other East Asian countries is also a key factor driving growth. The growth of the population present in these regions is expected to further drive the demand for shiitake mushrooms. Additionally, shiitake mushrooms are available in various forms such as dried, fresh, powdered and others and can be used for a number of applications. Rising veganism is a prime factor driving the increasing adoption of shiitake mushrooms. Mushrooms when cooked down can have a meaty texture, and offer a complex flavor profile that is highly sought after in the vegan food community, thus driving market demand.
However, the low shelf life of shiitake mushrooms and related products are likely to slow market growth over the assessment period. Pest infestations are also rather common in shiitake mushroom plantations, thus challenging market growth. However, the rising demand for exotic mushrooms as the F&B sector grow more diverse across the globe is expected to create new market opportunities.
