Licorice Extract Market Forecast 2026-2036: Global Market to Reach USD 1,733.31 Million by 2036 at 6.20% CAGR
The global licorice extract market is entering a structurally transformative decade, shifting from bulk botanical sourcing toward concentration-defined, compliance-driven extract procurement. According to analysis by Future Market Insights (FMI), the market is valued at USD 949.80 million in 2026 and is projected to reach USD 1,733.31 million by 2036, expanding at a CAGR of 6.20%.Growth is being reshaped by glycyrrhizin band specification, assay reproducibility, and purification depth rather than raw root volume expansion. Pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, food, and cosmetic manufacturers are increasingly qualifying suppliers based on concentration thresholds and documentation rigor.

Unlike commodity herbal procurement, licorice extract transactions are now structured around defined active compound bands. Medium glycyrrhizin concentration (10-30%) accounts for 28.6% of active compound share, emerging as the commercial benchmark for balancing potency, yield efficiency, regulatory compatibility, and formulation flexibility.
Market Evolution: Concentration Over Commodity
The transition toward concentration-led differentiation is redefining supplier competitiveness. Extract processors capable of delivering validated assay documentation and standardized glycyrrhizin profiles are gaining structured procurement contracts.
Standardized Glycyrrhizin Extract holds 8.1% of product share, while Highly Purified Derivatives account for 6.1%, reflecting a parallel shift toward high-intensity processing formats. Deglycyrrhizinated extract represents 8.4% of the active compound profile, expanding applicability in gastrointestinal and clinical nutraceutical systems.
This evolution is underpinned by:
• Concentration band economics modeling
• Extraction yield optimization
• Derivative portfolio expansion
• Compliance-grade documentation frameworks
Market development is increasingly anchored in formulation precision and reproducible performance across regulated end uses.
Product Type and Application Landscape
Product format distribution reflects integration depth across industries. Powdered Solid Extract leads with 16.9% share, supported by compatibility with capsule filling, tablet compression, and dry blending systems. Spray drying and vacuum concentration technologies enhance moisture stability and export consistency.
Blocks and paste formats retain importance in confectionery and tobacco flavoring workflows, where sweetness modulation and flavor extension are prioritized. Liquid extracts serve applications requiring solubility precision and dispersion control, particularly in respiratory and gastrointestinal formulations.
Application segmentation demonstrates multi-industry stability:
• Nutraceutical and Dietary Supplements: 13.9%
• Confectionery: 13.4%
• Cosmetics and Personal Care: 10.8%
• Respiratory Formulations: 10.6%
• Tobacco Flavoring: 8.5%
This diversified demand matrix reduces single-sector concentration risk while enabling processors to allocate production strategically across grades and concentration bands.
Why Medium Glycyrrhizin Leads
Medium glycyrrhizin concentration (10-30%) dominates with 22.7% of total market allocation within active compound segmentation. Its leadership is driven by cost-to-performance optimization.
Compared with High Glycyrrhizin extracts (18.9%) and Ultra-High (10.8%), medium concentration formats provide:
• Lower purification intensity
• Improved extraction throughput efficiency
• Cross-application flexibility
• Regulatory labeling compatibility
This concentration band aligns with large-volume pharmaceutical and supplement contracts, reinforcing structural dominance.
Extraction Efficiency as a Margin Lever
Extraction methodology directly influences glycyrrhizin recovery, solvent intensity, solids yield, and cost per active unit. Water and hydroalcoholic systems anchor baseline scalability, while solvent and supercritical technologies support higher concentration bands.
Yield optimization strategies-filtration enhancement, concentration cycling, and solids stabilization-are central to maintaining margin integrity. Processors integrating spray drying and vacuum concentration achieve improved batch reproducibility, strengthening export-grade consistency.
Regional Outlook: Structured Growth Patterns
Country-level CAGR analysis highlights differentiated growth momentum:
• India: 7.40%
• China: 7.10%
• USA: 5.80%
• Germany: 5.30%
• UK: 5.10%
• Japan: 4.70%
The United States holds the largest share, supported by advanced pharmaceutical and nutraceutical manufacturing infrastructure and compliance-driven procurement systems. Integration into respiratory and gastrointestinal formulations sustains structured demand.
China benefits from cultivation-processing integration and export-oriented derivative production, while India records the fastest growth due to expanding supplement manufacturing capacity and concentration-defined procurement adoption.
Germany and the UK maintain stable demand driven by strict documentation requirements, while Japan reflects mature but steady integration into traditional medicine and regulated nutraceutical systems.
Competitive Landscape: Processing Depth Defines Advantage
The market remains moderately fragmented, with the top fourteen companies accounting for 75.70% of total share. Key players include:
• Mafco Worldwide LLC
• Norevo GmbH
• Maruzen Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd.
Competitive differentiation is increasingly structured around purification depth, derivative breadth, and assay documentation capability. Investment in hydroalcoholic extraction scaling, solvent optimization, and advanced drying systems enhances yield control and reproducibility.
Recent industry developments underscore innovation momentum. American Licorice Company strengthened market engagement through participation in the 2025 Sweets & Snacks Expo. In October 2024, Active Concepts introduced AC ExoCalm, an upcycled licorice-derived cosmetic ingredient encapsulated for enhanced bioavailability. Meanwhile, Clariant relaunched licorice-based cosmetic ingredients at In-Cosmetics Global in Paris in partnership with PT Martina Berto Tbk.

Structural Outlook Toward 2036
Over the forecast period, growth will be sustained by concentration standardization, derivative expansion, and compliance documentation depth rather than agricultural acreage growth alone. Commercial leadership will increasingly favor processors delivering validated glycyrrhizin bands with reproducible assay reporting.
As regulated industries tighten botanical traceability and labeling standards, concentration-certified extracts will continue to command premium positioning.
