Global edible seaweed market in 2023 was USD 11,250 million. Year after year, edible seaweed consumption by human was 5.8% greater in 2024, and therefore the world market will be USD 12,490.8 million in 2025. During the forecast period (2025 to 2035), the sale will be 5.8% CAGR in each and every year and be USD 21,950.6 million in 2035.
Seaweed food sector is influenced by increasing consumer demand for natural, healthy, and green food. Seaweed is a wholesome food item and comprises high nutritional values of health antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals. Seaweed finds wide-ranging applications across food & beverage, food ingredients, and cosmetic segments due to functional and natural demands from customers.
With seaweed added to clean food, vegan, conventional and functional food, it will be in almost everything. And with new market as an Asian dish, even just food for being green, the market size will be bigger.
Increasing demand for seaweed as a clean and green crop food. Simple to cultivate it as it takes up less land, water, and input and thus a clean and green substitute crop for traditional crops. That is because of increasing demand by the consumer for clean food and food plants and thus demand for edible seaweed.
Healthy consumers added seaweed to their consumption in massive quantities because seaweed is mineral-rich with massive quantities of minerals like iodine, calcium, and magnesium. Seaweed has also been massive antioxidant-rich with massive high capacity to be a digestive health level and immunity level vehicle. That is the main reason for its massive applications in health supplements, snack food, and food consumption.
Following is half year gap difference of CAGR comparison between base year (2024) and actual year (2025) in world-sum edible seaweed industry. It is so much so that it not only talks about change in gross performance but talks about one in terms of trend of revenue achievement and thus enlightening the stakeholders with more information in terms of innovation trends of a year. H1 = 1st half six months (Jan-Jun) and H2 = 2nd half six months (Jul-Dec).
| Particular | Value CAGR |
|---|---|
| H1 (2024 to 2034) | 5.2% |
| H2 (2024 to 2034) | 5.4% |
| H1 (2025 to 2035) | 5.5% |
| H2 (2025 to 2035) | 5.8% |
There would be growth expected in the first half (H1) of the period 2025 to 2035 of 5.5% CAGR and further increase at the growth rate of 5.8% in the second half (H2) of the period. The increase will be during the latter half of the period since the customers would still make more volumes of sustainable functional foods. H1 of the period would witness the company's 30 BPS high growth, whereas H2 of the period the company would witness over 30 BPS growth.
This sustainability and health trend would cause edible seaweed market to increase in the forecast period. Nutrition quality, environment sustainability, and food functionality would be the driver to compel edible seaweed market to increase at a highly high rate. Preservation of their ancestral land and protection of their heritage food sources from being threatened due to global warming would be needed by whoever would attempt to dominate this fast-growing marketplace.
