Organic spices are, in general, natural spices that do not comprise any additives or artificial chemicals. They are generally grown in a completely natural or wild environment, avoiding the use of synthetic pesticides. Organic spices add texture, flavour, and lift to the nutritional content of the food for which it is used for preparation. Spices are used as flavours, dyes, or preservatives in different types of food products. Cardamom, cloves, black pepper, cumin, coriander seeds, mustard seeds, fenugreek, turmeric, and saffron are some of the spices that are experiencing considerable growth in the world market. The Middle East and Africa region has experienced a higher rate of consumption of these spices, due to the increased demand and preference for spicy foods in the region. Consumers around the region tend to add natural and organic ingredients to their diet. Therefore, the growing demand for organic spices compared to conventional spices as part of a healthy diet among the health-conscious population is the main driver of the growth of the organic spices market in the MEA.

Increased awareness of the harmful effects of chemicals, pesticides and additives should stimulate the demand for organic spices in the MEA. Other factors, such as changing food consumption patterns and the popularity of ethnic and exotic foods, are expected to drive overall growth. The increasing consumption of prepared foods such as soups, snacks and frozen and bakery products, together with the innovation of new flavours in the prepared foods segment, should stimulate the demand for products. The popularity of global and multi-cuisine should also be a major factor in the demand for organic spices in this area. Customers' growing preference for ready-to-use spices to save time in cooking without compromising taste should spur demand for powdered spices. The increasing importance of authentic flavours with a fusion of ethnic ingredients should continue to be a key factor in the growth of the MEA organic spices market in the next eight years.
