Argentina Garlic Market Report and Forecast 2024-2032

Argentina Garlic Market Size

The Argentina garlic market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 3.2% between 2024 and 2032. The market is being driven by the growing awareness regarding the health benefits of garlic and rising export of Argentine garlic to countries like Taiwan.

Argentina Garlic Market Outlook

• Argentina grows garlic on 16,000 hectares of land.

• Mendoza accounts for 90% of Argentina’s garlic production, with 80% of it being exported to other markets, like Brazil.

• In 2023, Argentina exported over USD 80 million worth of garlic internationally.

Argentina Garlic Market Growth

With unexpected rainfall in key garlic-producing countries, like China and Spain, Italy and other European countries are expected to boost their reliance on Argentina for dry garlic imports. In 2021, the continent imported 119,821 tons of garlic worth 387 million euros from other countries. This is expected to contribute to the growth of the domestic market.

The consumption of purple garlic is also expected to witness significant growth due to its excellent nutritious profile and high anthocyanin content.

Taiwan presents a unique opportunity for Argentina’s garlic exporters as it imports 10-15 million tons of garlic annually from other countries. Unlike garlic markets in Indonesia, Malaysia, and other major countries, this market does not face competition from Chinese exporters. Argentina’s garlic production is highly valued for their premium quality in Taiwan, which presents an attractive opportunity for Argentine farmers to capitalise upon. In 2023, Argentina exported over 9.4 thousand tons of garlic to Taiwan.

Garlic is an essential herb, which spices up the flavour of food and is an essential ingredient in soups, sauces, and dressings produced by various manufacturers. It is extensively used in bakery products, like cookies and bread, apart from various meat and poultry products. This is expected to drive its demand over the forecast period.
