The honey spread market is projected to register a CAGR of 6.21% during the forecast period, 2022-2027.

Honey has witnessed a higher demand among consumers as it is widely used as a natural sweetener in food products. The honey spread has been used as a staple of breakfast foods in the western region and its popularity is growing across the world which in turn boosted the market growth over the past few years. However, the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic impacted the honey spread market in the financial year 2020-21 due to the lack of resources and disruption in the supply chain which in turn affected the production rate.

Over the long term, the market growth can be attributed to the rising consumption of honey, and honey spread among consumers as it is abundant in nutrition such as vitamins, minerals, and natural sugar. In addition, the honey spread is primarily replacing the table sugar in daily diet owing to its various nutritional and health benefits such as cholesterol-free, fat-free, and aid in curing digestive health issues and enhancing immune function.

With growing consumer preference for sweeteners to enhance the taste of breakfast foods, the demand for different flavored honey spreads is also increasing. Hence, the players are engaged in launching flavored honey spreads in the market. For instance, in 2021, Valeo Foods launched chocolate-flavored honey spread under its brand Rowse. The new product called ChocoBee is made of honey and sustainable cocoa. On the other hand, low-calorie sweeteners have become popular to enhance the flavor of breakfast cereals owing to the rising health-consciousness among global consumers. This, in turn, is driving the demand for honey spreads as honey is perceived as a low-calorie sweetener. Further, this trend is expected to sustain during the forecast period as modern consumers are increasingly participating in weight management programs and adopting low-calorie diets to control obesity. Thereby, the growing demand for honey spread in breakfast foods is expected to drive market growth during the forecast period.

Moreover, the United States is the second largest consumer of honey-based products behind China based on a report published by the Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO). Thus, the increasing consumption rate in the region is driving market growth over the forecast period. Similarly, the natural honey spread demand is increasing in the region, and hence the companies are focused on introducing new varieties to the North American region. For instance, in September 2022, Stakich, a popular supplier of premium honey products in the United States recently launched new natural raw honey products such as honey spreads that are packed with health-promoting nutrients.
