Brazil Mushroom Market

Brazil Mushroom Market Overview:

The Brazil mushroom market size reached USD 1.22 Billion in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 2.30 Billion by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 6.56% during 2025-2033. The mushroom market in Brazil is expanding owing to the rising demand for sustainable agriculture, a growing interest in organic foods, and increasing use in the foodservice and hospitality sectors. These trends reflect shifting consumer preferences toward health, sustainability, and plant-based diets, driving mushrooms into mainstream culinary and contributing to the expansion of the Brazil mushroom market share.

Brazil Mushroom Market Trends:

Growth of Organic and Sustainable Agriculture

The Brazil mushroom market is steadily growing due to the nationwide emphasis on organic and sustainable farming practices, backed by both consumer preferences and institutional support. With environmental issues and climate resilience becoming key aspects of agricultural policy, mushrooms emerge as a remarkably sustainable crop, which require little land, water, and energy input while frequently thriving on agricultural waste and by-products. Their alignment with circular agriculture approaches renders them particularly appealing in environmentally aware food systems. This trend is further supported by increasing urban demand for pesticide-free, non-genetically modified organisms (GMOs), and eco-friendly products. Furthermore, the rising number of efforts of the governing body in promoting sustainable agriculture thorough subsidies, policies, and workshops, is impelling the market growth. For instance, in a major effort to encourage sustainable agriculture, Brazil’s government introduced the Agro Brasil + Sustentável Platform in 2024. Created by the Ministry of Agriculture and Serpro, the platform combined official and market data to facilitate credit assessments and enhance financing access for farmers who comply with socio-environmental criteria. It also offered reduced financing rates for those implementing sustainable methods. Such initiative is both motivating new participants in sustainable agriculture and urging traditional producers to transition towards more environment-friendly and responsible practices.

Expanding Foodservice and Hospitality Sectors

The fast-growing foodservice and hospitality sectors are contributing to the Brazil mushroom market growth, particularly in urban areas and prominent tourist hotspots. As consumer tastes change towards healthier, sustainable, and plant-based diets, restaurants, hotels, and catering services are progressively adding mushrooms to their menus as gourmet, vegetarian, and functional elements. Cooks are utilizing mushrooms to create inventive meals that attract both health-focused and eco-conscious patrons. In response, suppliers are adjusting with specialized formats, such as pre-sliced, dehydrated, or unique varieties, to satisfy the specific needs of commercial kitchens. The growing emphasis of the hospitality sector on fresh, locally sourced, and environment-friendly products complements the use of domestically grown mushrooms. Seasonal campaigns, food events, and culinary tourism are enhancing public awareness about mushrooms and influencing consumer preferences. This significant adoption of mushrooms within the foodservice industry is further amplified by the sector's robust economic outlook, as stated by the IMARC Group that estimated Brazil’s foodservice sector is expected to hit USD 93.2 Billion by 2033. This consistent demand from the professional culinary sector is not only ensuring steady sales volumes but also reinforcing mushrooms' role in Brazilian cuisine. As mushrooms gain popularity on restaurant plates, they simultaneously become more normalized in home cooking, further expanding their market reach.
