From 2025 to 2030, the Côte d’Ivoire tea market is projected to expand by approximately USD 37.7 million, advancing at a compound annual rate of just under 5.2%. The sector is emerging from the combined shocks of the pandemic and elevated inflation with a gradual recovery profile, characterised by stabilising prices and a measured return of consumer demand. Given the industry’s significant reliance on imported brands, earlier supply disruptions and currency pressures translated into cost volatility and constrained availability. As pricing conditions normalise, retail activity is regaining momentum, although tea continues to trail coffee in overall penetration and cultural relevance.
Market expansion remains structurally uneven. Black bagged tea retains a leading position, supported by its affordability and the convenience of single-sachet formats that resonate in a price-sensitive environment. At the same time, growth dynamics are increasingly shaped by demographic and lifestyle shifts. A relatively young consumer base is driving stronger interest in green tea and fruit and herbal infusions, particularly in urban centres where café culture and tea-room concepts are gaining traction. In contrast, traditional herbal preparations maintain relevance among older consumers, who associate them with medicinal and preventive health uses rather than everyday indulgence.
Health and wellness considerations are steadily reshaping product mix. Demand for teas positioned around detoxification, weight management, energy support and antioxidant benefits is rising from a low base, enabling green and fruit-infused variants to outpace the broader category. Local manufacturers are responding by formalising and packaging traditional herbal ingredients, seeking to bridge long-standing consumption habits with modern branding and quality cues. This evolution is gradually broadening tea’s appeal beyond its historically narrow consumer base.
Distribution patterns reflect income segmentation. Middle- and higher-income consumers increasingly rely on modern retail chains and digital platforms, while community-based outlets remain central for mass-market purchases. E-commerce is gaining traction, supported by smartphone penetration and improved delivery infrastructure, though its influence remains concentrated in urban areas and higher-value segments. International brands continue to dominate through established distribution networks and brand equity, yet domestic players are strengthening their presence by leveraging culturally resonant marketing and competitive pricing. Looking ahead, moderate growth is expected to persist, anchored by black bagged tea and expanding fruit and herbal segments, with further upside contingent on continued price stability, retail modernisation and the deepening of health-oriented consumption among a youthful population.
