High nutritive & culinary properties of mushrooms and widespread application of mushrooms in food service & food processing industries are the key factors contributing market expansion.

Mushrooms are low-calorie and cholesterol-free. They have several minerals and vitamins, including copper, potassium, magnesium, zinc, and folate. Mushrooms are also high in antioxidants such as selenium and glutathione or GSH, substances believed to protect cells from damage and reduce chronic disease and inflammation. In addition, mushrooms are the richest dietary source of another antioxidant called ergothioneine, or ERGO. Due to these nutritive properties edible mushrooms are quite popular among consumers globally, which is driving the market for mushrooms.

Mushrooms have a unique texture, good aroma, taste, and flavor and are an important natural source of foods and medicines. They have high fiber, low fat, and low starch, which makes them ideal food for obese persons and diabetics. They are also known to possess promising antioxidative, cardiovascular, hypercholesterolemia, antimicrobial, hepato-protective, and anticancer effects, which increase mushroom demand and consumption, thus stimulating market growth. Market players are offering processed mushrooms with different added flavors.
