Tridge summary

The Ministry of Trade in Indonesia is working to diversify and increase the export of the country's spices on a global scale. This comes as spices continue to be a rapidly growing market, particularly with the increase in the food and beverage, restaurant, and cosmetics industries. However, there are several challenges to spice exports, including the closure of laboratories for quality testing, closed international commercial airports, and reduced demand due to quarantines and lockdowns. To strengthen exports, the government is focusing on increasing promotion, penetration, and development of commodities. Indonesia is currently the 6th largest exporter of spices with a market share of 6.03 percent. In the first four months of 2020, the export value of spices from Indonesia reached USD 218.69 million, marking a 19.28% increase compared to the same period the previous year.
