Beroe’s market study reveals that the global vanillin market secured revenues worth around $29.5 Bn in 2019, with the figure likely to balloon at a 6–7% CAGR during 2017-2022.
Manufacturers are investing their resources in developing pest/drought/disease resistant and high-value potential variants of natural fragrances, mainly mint. Moreover, they are leveraging innovative synthetic solutions to ensure cost-efficient manufacturing and processing of vanillin and turpentine.
Market entrants find insufficient technical expertise and raw material access as massive hurdles to entering the vanillin market competitive landscape. In addition, a stringent regulatory framework on sustainability and safety weakens their foothold in the marketplace over the long run.
Rising compliance costs and irregular production of natural ingredients come with high costs of mechanizing and accumulating the inventory, thus hitting the bottom lines of vanillin producers.
The global vanillin market is significantly consolidated, with leading ten fragrance houses capturing nearly 80% of the overall production. Besides, the presence of maturing markets is influencing participants to bet on tech-driven innovations to gain a competitive advantage.
Buyers totally rely on distinct fragrances developed by vanillin producers with patented formulae. With quality and sustained supplies as the deciding factors, the switching rate of buyers consequently scales down.
