2012-01-28 06:29:26 - New Beverages research report from IBISWorld is now available from Fast Market Research

A hot commodity: Herbal teas have been growing in popularity for several reasons over the past five years, including increased awareness of their health benefits, an aging population and a greater number of people without healthcare. Consistent demand from the aging population is partly attributable to the intense marketing on the part of industry operators in an effort to boost awareness about the health benefits of herbal teas. And the economic recession benefited industry operators as Americans faced mounting difficulty in accessing and paying for conventional healthcare. Even as people return to work and healthcare programs in the coming years, demand for industry products will be resilient since its consumer base has already expanded. Competition will grow, though, so producers

will increasingly innovate and expand distribution networks.
