The Europe stevia market is being aided by the growing global industry. The global market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8.4% to reach a value of USD 844.20 million.

Europe is a leading regional market for stevia, globally after the Asia Pacific. The continent accounts for over a fifth of the global industry in terms of consumption and is being driven by the accelerating year-on-year use of stevia in the region. Since it accounts for only a small percentage of the global output of the natural sweetener, it imports stevia leaves to meet the rising domestic demand. The imported leaves are then processed into pure stevia sweeteners. The growing consumer interest and increase in investments and innovations by the companies involved are further aiding the Europe stevia market. Europe, along with the Asia Pacific was the leading region for the launches of foods and beverages containing the natural sweetener as an ingredient. The two regions were followed by Latin America and North America as major markets for stevia as well as in the number of foods and beverages product launches, which were comprised of the natural sweetener.

Globally, the industry is being driven by the growing demand for low calorie and natural sweeteners. With rising cases of obesity and diabetes, the governments and other local bodies are increasingly encouraging the use of natural sweeteners like stevia. Their expanding applications in the sports and energy sector is propelling the industry forward. The natural sweetener is also finding rising application in non-food sectors like cosmetics and personal care sector in products like toothpaste, mouthwash, and lip balms, among others. Currently, the Asia Pacific is the largest stevia market, with China producing almost 90% of the natural sweetener in the region.
