Customers are demanding healthy food with additional nutrition contents, as the easy availability of health and nutrition information is blurring the lines of what types of products are required to maintain health. Agave syrup, being a natural plant-based product, consists of nutrients such as vitamin C, vitamin B, potassium, calcium, and selenium, all of which are beneficial to health. Growing demand for low-calorie sweeteners in beverages has led to increased application of agave syrup by manufacturers involved in the beverage industry, thus boosting the sales of agave syrup.
In recent years, the global agave syrup market has witnessed substantial growth, and this trend is anticipated to continue over the forecast period of 2020-2030, at a significant CAGR of 6%.
Key Takeaways from Agave Syrup Market Study
- Rising inclination of consumers toward plant-based food and plant-based diets, coupled with growing trend of veganism in countries such as the U.S., the U.K., Germany, France, Spain, the Netherlands, and others, is boosting the growth of the global agave syrup market.

Agave syrup is also sweeter than sugar, which saves cost for manufacturers, thus finding increased applications in the beverage industry.
