Anticipated Impact of COVID-19

The coronavirus pandemic has generated major shockwaves across various industries. Production cycles are operating at reduced capacity due to the imposition of nationwide lockdowns to enforce social distancing. This has caused disruptions in the licorice candy market as well. Suppliers are finding it difficult to procure raw materials due to logistical disruptions, causing a dip in production. However, this trough is slowly eroding as the demand for licorice candies is flying high due to the perceived antiviral resistance properties it provides.

According to clinical studies, licorice is rich in over 20 triterpenoids and nearly 300 flavonoids. Two of these triterpenoids have antiviral properties as they inhibit viral gene expression and replication. Therefore, immense possibilities exist for manufacturers to produce more licorice candies. Moreover, the overall antimicrobial properties within licorice will only accelerate consumption in the years to come, keeping the market afloat.

For instance, Gimbal’s “Scottie Dogs Licorice” brand was acquired by Jelly Candy to expand the latter’s confectionary portfolio in 2019. Provision of additional perks is also an important strategy to establish firm footing in the market. For example, in 2018, The Old Time Candy Company doled out licorice candies with different gifts such as “subscription boxes”, corporate gifts and others.
