The cosmetics industry, with registered establishments and product lines as of March 2025, contributes to glucose syrup demand due to its moisturizing and skin-conditioning properties in formulations. Additionally, for the pharmaceutical industry, during the year 2021 to March 2025, investments for health product procurement and new pharma and medical equipment manufacturing facilities have been established, boosting industrial utilization of glucose syrup.
The Tanzania glucose syrup market is expected to grow in the future, supported by several economic and social factors. By 2050, Tanzania is projected to become an upper-middle-income economy with a GDP and a per capita income supported by natural resource wealth, a skilled workforce, and industrial competitiveness. This transformation includes becoming a food security hub for Eastern and Southern Africa, aligned with the government’s target in food exports by 2030. Infrastructure upgrades, including the renovation of key storage facilities and construction of new silos targeting the storage goal by 2030, are expected to strengthen supply chain resilience and raw material availability, encouraging more local glucose syrup manufacturing and reducing reliance on imports.
According to Parth, Senior Research Analyst, 6Wresearch, Solid glucose syrup led the market due to its longer shelf life, ease of transport, and reduced storage requirements compared to liquid forms. It is especially preferred by small to medium-scale manufacturers who benefit from its convenience in bulk handling and formulation stability. Solid syrup is also better suited for regions with limited cold-chain infrastructure, making it a practical choice for inland or rural processing units.
