Microgreens are packed with phytonutrients and antioxidants that support the immune system and ensure the health of the gut microbiome. Raising awareness regarding the consumption of microgreens is increasing their demand.

Consumers increasingly add microgreens to salads, stir-fries or rice dishes, soups, quiches and omelettes, smoothies, and baked bread to enhance their nutritional intake. Microgreens can be effortlessly cultivated by sowing the seeds in the soil. The ease of planting and growing microgreens are some of the reasons microgreens are rising in popularity among consumers, aiding the microgreens market growth. Consumers living in urban settlements with limited outdoor space are increasingly cultivating microgreens using vertical, indoor farming and hydroponics. Further, microgreens are grown from seeds that are non-genetically modified, non-hybrid, non-treated, and open-pollinated seeds which makes them viable options for consumers who are increasingly focused on their health.

As per the microgreens market report, microgreens producers have a wide customer base that includes hotels, gyms, hospitals, and individual customers.
