Matcha Market Set To Climb From $4.61 Billion In 2026 To $7.15 Billion By 2030
The matcha market has seen rapid expansion over recent years. Its value is forecast to rise from $4.17 billion in 2025 to $4.61 billion in 2026, achieving a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.6%. Historically, this market growth can be attributed to the increase in tea consumption across Asia, heightened awareness of antioxidant benefits, the integration of matcha into café culture, its growing use in traditional ceremonies, and the availability of premium tea cultivation practices.
The matcha market is projected to experience swift expansion over the coming years, reaching a valuation of $7.15 billion by 2030, driven by an 11.6% compound annual growth rate (CAGR). This anticipated growth during the forecast period is fueled by several factors, including the escalating demand for plant-based wellness items, its expanding use in functional beverages, the proliferation of specialty tea retail outlets, a rise in premium tea consumption, and advancements in matcha processing and packaging techniques.

Matcha Market Development Factors: What’s Supporting Demand?
The escalating consumer demand for food and beverages is projected to stimulate the growth of the matcha market in the coming period. Food and beverages are edible substances that provide individuals with sustenance, nourishment, and enjoyment. Matcha is a key ingredient in food and beverages due to its distinctive flavor profile, vivid color, nutritional benefits, and cultural importance. Its adaptability allows for its incorporation into a wide array of recipes, catering to diverse palates and preferences while potentially offering health advantages. For instance, in December 2024, FoodNavigator, a prominent UK-based online B2B digital media platform, reported that “CPG” (consumer-packaged-goods) store-sales volumes for food & beverage collectively increased by 1.1% in 2024, representing the first such rise in three years. Consequently, the increasing need for food and beverages is acting as a primary driver for the expansion of the matcha market.

Matcha Market Transformation Trends: What Innovations Are Driving Change?
Prominent companies in the matcha market are concentrating on advanced technologies like supercritical carbon dioxide decaffeination to enhance their products’ quality and purity. This allows them to offer matcha with reduced caffeine while preserving the vivid flavor and nutritional advantages consumers anticipate. Supercritical carbon dioxide decomposition is a process that uses carbon dioxide in a supercritical state (exhibiting properties of both a gas and a liquid) to extract caffeine from tea leaves or coffee beans. This method efficiently removes caffeine while safeguarding flavor compounds and valuable nutrients, such as catechins. As an illustration, in January 2024, Tsuji Riichi Honten Co. Ltd., a Japan-based tea manufacturer, launched Decaf Matcha. Similarly, Matcha Direct employs a modern decaffeination technique involving supercritical carbon dioxide. This approach successfully lowers the caffeine content to about 4–8 mg per serving (equivalent to decaf coffee) while retaining almost 100% of the beneficial catechins, which are key functional nutrients in matcha.
