Licorice extract is a herbal extract derived from wild and organically grown Glycyrrhiza glabra licorice roots. It has a sweet and aromatic flavor and is produced by boiling the pulp of licorice roots.

As a result, it finds extensive application across various industries, such as pharmaceutical, cosmetics and food and beverage.
Significant growth in the food and beverage industry is one of the key factors creating a positive outlook for the market. Licorice extract is widely used in food products as a food additive or natural sweetener in cake batters, chewing gums, sweet custard and can also be mixed into a meat rub as a flavor enhancer. Additionally, the increasing product demand in the pharmaceutical industry is favoring the market growth. Licorice extract is widely used to manufacture medicines for indigestion, toothache, asthma, fever, bronchitis and skin infections. Moreover, the shifting consumer preference toward organic products, especially among the millennials due to the rising health consciousness, is providing a thrust to the market growth. In line with this, the widespread product adoption in the tobacco industry as a de-bittering agent is positively impacting the market growth.
