Africa Tea Market - Growth, Trends, Covid-19 Impact, and Forecasts (2023 - 2028)
Market Report I 2023-01-23 I 100 Pages I Mordor Intelligence
The African tea market is projected to reach a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period, 2022-2027.
The tea industry in Africa is a labor-intensive industry. In Africa, Malawi alone employs a workforce of around 50,000 unskilled and semi-skilled workers. The peak seasons for tea plucking and production in Africa are from March to September, presenting a high risk of COVID-19 transmission due to the high concentration of people on the estates and in the factories.

The impact on tea production itself so far seems limited. However, there was a clear increase in tea consumption during the pandemic as in-house consumption increased.
Over the medium term, increased health awareness, health benefits caused by tea, and a surge in disposable income are expected to drive the growth of the African tea market. Moreover, many market players focused on introducing additional healthy ingredients in tea, contributing to the overall market growth. Factors like introducing new flavors and varieties and rising demand for herbal tea are expected to bring more growth opportunities to the tea market.
Health and wellness are the major factors boosting the demand for smaller specialty teas in Africa, including fruit/herbal tea and green tea, which recorded strong retail volume growth in 2021, despite their higher than average unit prices.
