This report profiles the leading players in the global flavor and fragrance industry. Flavor is the sensory notion of a food or other substance, and is determined mainly by the sense of taste. Flavor companies produce and sell flavor compounds as well as flavor delivery technology that is used in foods and beverages. Hence, flavors are sold primarily to the food and beverage industries for use in a wide range of consumer products, including soft drinks, confectionery, bakery goods, desserts and prepared foods. Fragrances are designed to emit a pleasant aroma and are mostly used consumer products such as soaps, detergents, cosmetic creams, lotions and powders, lipsticks, after shave lotions, deodorants, hair preparations, candles, air fresheners and all purpose cleaners.

Key findings from this report

The global flavor and fragrance market was valued at approximately $16bn in 2008. Business Insights anticipates that the value of global flavor and fragrance market will grow at a CAGR of 2.5% during 2008–13 to reach a total value of approximately $18bn in 2013.

Acquisitions have been ongoing in the industry for some years now creating a distinct two tier industry structure. The top ten players accounted for about 90.3% of the total market size in 2008 and smaller companies operating in niche and often domestic markets represent the remaining share.

Increasing demand for consumer products in emerging markets supported by rising disposable income will primarily drive demand for flavor and fragrance. Demand for differentiated products in developed markets such as natural and functional products will further increase consumption of flavor and fragrance as they serve as a key component to building product differentiation.

The limited market size coupled with the consolidated nature of the industry sets high barriers to entry in the industry. Substantial capital investment and R&D expenses as well as significant investment in quality assurance system further elevate barriers to entry.

T.Hasegawa was the only company among the top 10 players that registered a decline in CAGR of 2.3% during 2004–08. Shift in customer preference in end consumer products market in Japan swayed demand away from related flavor and fragrance, adversely impacting the financial performance of T.Hasegawa during 2004–08.

Burgeoning aging population in developed nations such as the US and Japan is driving the trend towards healthy lifestyle. In response to this trend, major flavor and fragrance companies are investing in the development of R&D capabilities in the field of natural ingredients applicable mostly in food and beverages, and cosmetic industries.
