Our research report offers a 360-degree view of the Shea Butter market’s drivers and restraints, coupled with the impact they have on demand during the projection period. Also, the report examines global opportunities and competitive analysis for the Shea Butter market.
- Shea butter is a naturally occurring product made from the shea tree’s nuts and is widely utilized in the culinary and cosmetics industries. In addition to having good fats and micronutrients, the product is a skin-nourishing agent that can be used directly on the skin or combined with other ingredients to make lotions, soaps, shampoos, or creams.
- It is abundant in vitamins, and minerals like potassium, magnesium, and other nutrients and is free of chemical additives and preservatives. It also contains vitamins A, F, and E, which are substituted for hardened fats in foods and beverages, including vegetable oils and animal-derived lipids. Due to its superior moisturizing, healing, and hydrating qualities, it is also utilized as a substitute for coconut oil, butter, and olive oil in cosmetic products such as moisturizers, sunscreens, creams, and lotions.
- Due to a severe lockdown, the COVID-19 outbreak had a negative effect on the market by disrupting the delivery of raw materials to industrial facilities. Additionally, shops and enterprises were shut down, which further decreased sales of shea butter-based goods. Shea butter usage in soap products was lowered by 25% in November 2021, per a National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) article. Additionally, the worldwide economic downturn forced consumers to be cautious with their spending, which had an impact on the market.

Key Market Dynamics
- Over the course of the projected period, increased demand for cocoa butter alternatives and rising consumption of cocoa and bakery goods are anticipated to propel market expansion. Shea butter is viewed as a healthier option to cocoa butter, according to a Dairy Reporter story from October 2021. Additionally, the aforementioned product is frequently utilized in a variety of food applications as a replacement for edible vegetable fats and oils, which is predicted to expand the market’s potential.
- Due to increased customer demand for goods that offer a variety of benefits and sustenance, the cosmetics industry has recently started to diversify its usage of shea butter. Additionally, it’s a component of lotions, baby oil, skincare, hair care, color cosmetics, and other goods. Shea butter has many applications, likely to spur market expansion in the next seven years.
- In the years to come, there will likely be an increase in demand for the market due to the rising demand for baked products and confectionery, as well as the need for alternatives for cocoa butter. Puff pastry, cookies, and chocolates are just a few of the baked delicacies that use shea butter as a basic ingredient.
- In the coming years, global shea butter market revenue is expected to increase as people become more aware of shea butter’s therapeutic benefits for the skin, including its anti-ageing effects, additional moisturizing characteristics, and healing effects. Additionally, the preference of people, particularly women and young people, for cosmetic goods made with natural ingredients is anticipated to promote market growth. In March 2022, around 85% of consumers worldwide would favour skin care products with natural components like shea butter, according to a National Programs article.
- Additionally, the market is anticipated to grow faster than average over the period under consideration due to the rising number of product launches in the cosmetics & personal care sector.
Raw & Unrefined Shea butter to Hold the Largest Share in the Shea Butter Market in 2021
- The raw & unrefined shea butter segment led the shea butter market in 2021, and it is anticipated that it will continue to dominate during the forecast period. Less processed oils are gaining popularity among consumers because of their advantages, which include increasing skin hydration, mending scrapes & cuts, and preventing breakouts.
- For instance, Karite Shea Butter introduced Crème Corps Body Cream in March 2020. This natural body care line offers the advantages of raw and unprocessed ingredients, making it healthy for the skin. The successful market growth trend is anticipated to be supported by such launches.
- During the forecast period, the refined segment is anticipated to increase at the second-fastest rate. Because the product has a longer shelf life, people are increasingly favouring refined. The aroma and color of the product are also removed during the refining process, which is anticipated to expand its application in skin care products by producers as they create anti-sensitive solutions.
- For instance, Crafters Choice debuted soap and other personal care items made with ultra-refined, pure shea butter in May 2021.

Furthermore, data triangulation, which examines the market from three different aspects, is a recurring theme in all of our research reports. The following are critical components of the methodology used in all of our studies:
Preliminary Data Mining
On a broad scale, raw market information is retrieved and compiled. Data is constantly screened to make sure that only substantiated and verified sources are taken into account. Furthermore, data is mined from a plethora of reports in our archive and also a number of reputed & reliable paid databases. To gain a detailed understanding of the business, it is necessary to know the entire product life cycle and to facilitate this, we gather data from different suppliers, distributors, and buyers.
Surveys, technological conferences, and trade magazines are used to identify technical issues and trends. Technical data is also gathered from the standpoint of intellectual property, with a focus on freedom of movement and white space. The dynamics of the industry in terms of drivers, restraints, and valuation trends are also gathered. As a result, the content created contains a diverse range of original data, which is then cross-validated and verified with published sources.
Statistical Model
Simulation models are used to generate our business estimates and forecasts. For each study, a one-of-a-kind model is created. Data gathered for market dynamics, the digital landscape, development services, and valuation patterns are fed into the prototype and analyzed concurrently. These factors are compared, and their effect over the projected timeline is quantified using correlation, regression, and statistical modeling. Market forecasting is accomplished through the use of a combination of economic techniques, technical analysis, industry experience, and domain knowledge.
Short-term forecasting is typically done with econometric models, while long-term forecasting is done with technological market models. These are based on a synthesis of the technological environment, legal frameworks, economic outlook, and business regulations. Bottom-up market evaluation is favored, with crucial regional markets reviewed as distinct entities and data integration to acquire worldwide estimates.
