Description

List of Tables

Gourmet Seaweed Seasoning Market size is projected to expand at 7.4% CAGR from 2023 to 2032 driven by the rising popularity of Asian cuisines and the optimum integration of different seasonings in international culinary practices.

Seaweed-based seasonings, renowned for their distinctive umami flavor profiles, have gained widespread recognition due to their higher appeal among diverse consumer demographics. To that end, several market players are actively launching wide range of gourmet seaweed seasonings with unique flavor profiles and versatile applications for catering to the evolving culinary preferences of consumers. For instance, in February 2023, modern seaweed producer Cascadia launched its Kove Ocean Foods brand with Sea Spice, a flavor-enhancing vegan sprinkle similar to furikake, a Japanese blend of sesame seeds, seaweed, dried fish, herbs, and salt. The surge in the number of such innovations will propel the industry growth.

The gourmet seaweed seasoning market is categorized into product type, form, application, distribution channel, and region.

Based on product type, the industry size from the kelp segment is projected to gain significant traction from 2023-2032. The growing consumer awareness about the health advantages of kelp, including its high mineral content and potential antioxidant properties is propelling its utilization in premium seasoning blends. Additionally, the increasing incorporation of kelp-based seasonings in various cuisines, including salads, soups, and snacks is expected to provide potential growth opportunities to the industry players. To cite an instance, in May 2023, Ocean's Balance, a seaweed manufacturer, secured $650,000 in funding from Coastal Enterprises Inc., a financial institution for investing in custom-designed dryers, to boost sugar kelp production.

Gourmet seaweed seasoning industry from the salads application segment accounted for substantial revenue share in 2022 and is estimated to expand at notable CAGR from 2023-2032. The rising consumer shift toward healthier and more flavorful food choices is increasing the consumption of gourmet seaweed seasonings in salads. Moreover, the higher popularity of seaweed-infused salad dressings and toppings in culinary creations owing to their unique textures and savory notes will contribute to the segment growth.

Regionally, the Asia Pacific gourmet seaweed seasoning industry is set to witness robust growth during 2023 and 2032 attributed to the presence of rich culinary heritage and the widespread incorporation of seaweed in traditional cuisines. Additionally, there is growing consumer awareness about the health benefits of seaweed, such as its rich mineral content and antioxidant properties in the region. The presence of key market players coupled with the rising popularity of Asian fusion cuisines worldwide will further augment the regional market outlook.
