Changing demographics along with the rise in disposable income of middle class populations, especially in urban areas, is anticipated to drive the product consumption and in turn drive the market. Millennials are anticipated to register the strongest growth, especially in countries such as China, Japan, Brazil, and India. Rising awareness regarding the benefits of drinking tea is also helping the market, and a number of manufacturers are repositioning their products as a wellness and lifestyle brand to reach more consumers.
