The global anethole market, valued at US$ 72 million in 2024, is projected to reach US$ 107 million by 2032, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.1% from 2025 to 2032. This steady expansion reflects increasing demand across key industries like food & beverage and chemical manufacturing, driven by anethole’s versatile applications as a flavoring agent and fragrance component.
Anethole, the primary aromatic compound found in anise and fennel essential oils, continues gaining traction as a natural additive. Its licorice-like flavor profile makes it especially valuable for confectionery and beverage applications, while its antimicrobial properties are increasingly utilized in pharmaceutical formulations. The market’s growth aligns with consumer preferences shifting toward natural ingredients and cleaner labels.

Market Overview & Regional Analysis
Asia-Pacific currently leads global anethole production, with China and India accounting for over 65% of manufacturing capacity. The region benefits from abundant raw material availability, cost-competitive labor, and established processing infrastructure for essential oils. Domestic consumption is rising alongside urbanization and growth in processed food industries.
Europe maintains strong demand as food manufacturers reformulate products with natural ingredients to meet EU regulatory standards. North America shows steady growth in flavor & fragrance applications, particularly in premium product categories. Emerging markets in Latin America and Africa present opportunities, though infrastructure limitations currently constrain market penetration.
Key Market Drivers and Opportunities
The market’s expansion is fueled by multiple factors: growing consumer preference for natural flavors over synthetic alternatives; increasing use in oral care products for its antimicrobial properties; and expanding applications in pharmaceutical formulations. The food and beverage sector accounts for approximately 68% of global anethole consumption, with basic chemical manufacturing representing 24%.
Significant opportunities exist in developing novel extraction technologies to improve yield and purity. There’s also potential in expanding applications within functional foods and nutraceuticals, particularly given anethole’s documented health benefits. The rise of craft distilling and artisanal food production creates additional demand for premium-quality natural flavorings.
Challenges & Restraints
Market growth faces several challenges: price volatility of raw materials (particularly star anise and fennel); competition from synthetic alternatives like anisaldehyde; and regulatory hurdles in some markets concerning essential oil components. Climate change impacts on crop yields represent an emerging concern, while complex supply chains create quality control challenges.
Trade restrictions in certain regions and inconsistent quality standards between markets also pose barriers. The industry must address these challenges through vertical integration, improved cultivation practices, and harmonization of international standards.
