Green tea is a variety of tea produced from the leaves and buds of the Camellia sinensis plant, distinguished by its unique processing method that avoids the extensive withering and oxidation stages seen in the production of oolong and black teas. Traditionally, green tea has been employed to enhance heart health, regulate body temperature and blood sugar levels, support digestion, and enhance cognitive functions.
The primary product types of green tea encompass green tea bags, green tea instant mixes, iced green tea, loose leaf, capsules, and other variations. Green tea bags are pre-measured pouches containing green tea leaves, designed for convenient and straightforward brewing. They are available in both organic and conventional categories, featuring flavored and unflavored options. Distribution channels for green tea products include supermarkets, hypermarkets, specialty stores, convenience stores, online platforms, and various other retail outlets.

The trend among consumers towards making healthier food choices is expected to be a driving force for the green tea market. Healthy food choices involve opting for foods that contribute to overall well-being, support good health, and provide essential nutrients for optimal bodily functions. Green tea, recognized as both a beverage and dietary supplement, is known for its potential to enhance mental alertness, alleviate digestive discomfort, relieve headaches, and aid in weight loss. A notable shift in consumer behavior is evident, as reported by the International Food Information Council in May 2022. Approximately 52% of Americans embraced various diets or eating patterns, including clean eating, mindful eating, calorie counting, and plant-based diets, marking a significant increase from 39% in 2021. This shift towards healthier food choices is a key driver for the green tea market.
Prominent companies in the green tea market are strategically focusing on the development of plant-based and vegan products, particularly plant-based energy drinks, to cater to consumer preferences for healthier alternatives and maximize market profits. Plant-based energy drinks, derived from botanical sources, offer a natural and sustainable substitute for traditional energy drinks. These beverages often include plant extracts and functional ingredients such as green tea. For example, in April 2021, ITO EN Ltd., a US-based provider of non-alcoholic beverages and tea-related products, introduced matcha LOVE ENERGY +, a plant-based energy drink. This product line features green tea and matcha blends with functional ingredients targeting body and mind benefits, including soothing, immunity, and focus. Each variant contains 50 mg of natural caffeine, catechin antioxidants, vitamin C, and L-theanine, providing a gentle energy boost and mental clarity. Packaged in colorful, recyclable 8.2-ounce steel cans, these drinks offer a clean and natural energy option with functional benefits.
In May 2022, Florida Food Products, an innovator and producer of natural and clean-label ingredients, acquired T-Bev, Inc., for an undisclosed amount. This strategic acquisition is expected to extend the Florida Food Products platform into nutraceutical ingredients while reinforcing its position in value-added, natural tea products. T-Bev Inc., a US-based manufacturer and distributor of natural and organic caffeine and functional botanical extracts, including green tea, plays a vital role in enhancing Florida Food Products' capabilities in catering to the growing demand for health-conscious and natural ingredients.
