Reishi Mushroom Market by Form, End Use, and Nature - Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2021-2027: Rise in functional food & beverage product applications - ResearchAndMarkets.com

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Reishi Mushroom Market by Form, End Use, and Nature: Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2021-2027" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

Reishi mushroom is a fungus, which belongs to the family Polyporaceae (or Ganodermaceae) of class Basidiomycetes.

It grows on dead wood and various parts of the fungus namely, mycelia, spores and its fruiting body is consumed and sold in various forms as powder, capsule, tea, coffee, and others. The plant is intensively cultivated in countries all around the world, especially South-east Asian countries.

Reishi mushroom exhibits presence of various bioactive chemical constituents which reflects different biological properties, and is thus an important medicinal mushroom, used as cure of various diseases, as health tonics, and in cosmetics. This has been one of the major driving factors for the reishi mushroom market.

Furthermore, the application of reishi mushroom powder as an ingredient in cosmetics & personal care products has gained high traction. This is due to its exceptional antioxidant, anti-aging, anti-wrinkle, skin whitening, and moisturizing effects, which make them ideal ingredient for cosmetics products. Hence, several multinational brands are gradually developing and launching personal care products manufactured using reishi mushroom as a chief ingredient.

This is regarded as another driving factor of the reishi mushroom market. However, there are several problems with reishi mushroom based products due to their low reproducibility and poor-quality control. Various reasons such as seasonal variations, different soil conditions, and stage of fruiting body development, lead to weakened product quality. Hence, these factors are expected to hinder the growth of the market.

On the contrary, there has been an exponential growth in demand for organic food & beverage products owing to rise in health concerns. This can be regarded as an opportunity by manufacturers for further growth and expansion of the market through product diversification and innovation.

Owing to the outspread of the COVID-19, the reishi mushroom market has been largely impacted due to lack of availability of workers, which in turn affected the production capacity. Furthermore, due to closures of wholesale markets, producers had to solely rely on supermarkets and e-commerce traders to market the mushroom products.

Hence, the market for reishi mushrooms was largely impacted during the pandemic. However, since it is regarded as a therapeutic product, the demand for reishi mushroom is anticipated to gain higher traction in the near future. This is due to increase in consumption of dietary supplements and nutraceutical products by consumers as a means to stay healthier and gain immunity.
