Saudi Arabia Tea Market 2025

Saudi Arabia’s tea market is on track for robust expansion, projected to rise from USD 1,259.3 million in 2024 to USD 1,911.2 million by 2030 at a CAGR of 7.2%. This trajectory reflects a convergence of cultural tradition, demographic growth, and shifting consumer preferences, positioning tea as one of the most resilient and dynamic beverage segments in the Kingdom. Deeply rooted in Saudi social rituals, tea remains central to hospitality and everyday consumption, anchoring demand even as new flavors and premium varieties emerge.

Population growth and the Kingdom’s Vision 2030 initiatives are enlarging the tea consumer base. Policies aimed at diversifying the economy and expanding the workforce, alongside a rapid build-out of the tourism sector, are driving higher volumes across retail and foodservice channels. Millions of pilgrims arriving annually for Hajj and Umrah, as well as an expanding expatriate community, are adding to the demand for tea served in hotels, restaurants, and quick-service outlets, amplifying opportunities for both traditional blends and innovative formats.

A heightened focus on wellness is reshaping product development. Consumers are seeking teas rich in antioxidants, herbs, and functional ingredients to address digestion, relaxation, and immunity. This shift is fueling growth in herbal and specialty teas, as well as creating space for premium offerings that combine traditional brewing methods with contemporary health trends. Simultaneously, curiosity about new experiences is accelerating the adoption of matcha, fruit infusions, and artisanal blends, extending the category beyond its classic profiles.

Economic pressures and price sensitivity remain notable counterweights. As inflation and rising living costs squeeze household budgets, many consumers are turning to discount retailers, warehouse clubs, or competitively priced private labels. Brands are responding by offering smaller pack sizes and multi-use formats, balancing affordability with quality to maintain loyalty in a market where cultural tradition meets modern expectations. This blend of tradition, demographic expansion, and innovation underpins the Saudi tea market’s strong growth outlook through the end of the decade.
