• Consumer awareness about the health benefits of herbal and green tea may further drive the growth of the global tea market. Rise in disposable income of consumers, changes in taste and preferences, and introduction of additional healthy ingredients in tea by different market players are the other factors that fuel the market growth.

• The easy availability of tea is expected to encourage the growth of the Asia-Pacific green tea market. World green tea production is expected to grow at a faster rate than black tea, reflecting the growth in China.

Nevertheless, the expansion of the product portfolio and the increasing marketing activities and advertising are expected to offer promising opportunities for the key players in the global green tea market.
