Driving Factors

Dehydrated coconut powder is gaining popularity in South Korea as a health advantage, convenient, and versatile food ingredient. Allergen-free, plant-based foods are being demanded by customers, and coconut provides a clean label with functional nutrition. The use is on the rise in vegan food, cosmetics, and animal feed because of antimicrobial, moisturizing, and digestive qualities of coconut. Better drying technology and wider distribution through digital platforms are fueling growth in various segments.

Restraining Factors

The under-capacity domestic production of coconut poses a challenge to the market and hence is greatly import-dependent as well as vulnerable to price volatility. Poor knowledge in mass-market consumers, particularly traditional Korean foods, also limits adoption. Premium price tags attached to organic or high-value powder and alternative competition from almond, soy, and oat-based products are expected to repress price-sensitive segment market penetration.
