Exploring new formulations tailored for niche markets such as digestive health, sports nutrition, or personalized skincare could spur growth. Businesses could benefit from investing in advanced extraction technologies to improve yield and purity. Despite these challenges, the nature of the licorice extract market is dynamic, with a high potential for innovation and growth across diverse applications. Companies should leverage these insights to enhance product offerings and gain competitive advantages by focusing on transparent sourcing, tailored applications, and strategic collaborations within the industry.
