What is the Size of Global Commercial Seaweed Industry?

The Commercial Seaweed Market is largely driven by adoption of commercial seaweed in the food and beverage industry.

 Seaweed is highly rich in vitamins and minerals, which have many health benefits such as support thyroid function, help in reducing body weight, and reduce the risk of heart diseases.

In September 2022, Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute (CMFRI) a research institute in Kerala, India developed a remedy called Cadalmin TM LivCure extract made out of seaweed for fighting against fatty liver diseases that include obesity and type 2 diabetes.

The high cost of seaweed cultivation is hindering the growth of the global commercial seaweed market.

Water contamination has greatly risen recently which creates many difficulties while collecting algae from ocean bottoms, which raises the price of seaweed at the market. However, government involvement in seaweed production i.e., helping help farmers and manufacturers meet the rising demand from the food & beverage industry is likely to overcome this challenge.

The COVID-19 pandemic slowed the growth of the global commercial seaweed market, owing to the reduction in demand for seaweed as raw material from agricultural, cosmetics, and food & beverage industries. As a result, production showed a decline in the global commercial seaweed market.
