Latin America has dominated the guarana market for decades, and the region is expected to hold 42.2% of the market share in 2024. Brazil in particular is the largest producer and consumer of guarana in the world. The Amazon region is ideal for cultivating guarana due to its damp, tropical climate. Guarana grows abundantly in the Brazilian Amazon, especially in the states of Amazonas and Para. Brazil has a very well established guarana industry with numerous large scale farms and processors. Domestic consumption of guarana products in Brazil such as guarana soda and energy drinks are massive. Brazil is also a major exporter of guarana seeds, extracts, and powder primarily to European countries. The robust presence of guarana cultivation coupled with the huge local demand has made Brazil the powerhouse in the guarana market.

While Latin America remains dominant, Eastern Europe is emerging as the fastest growing region for guarana consumption. Poland has seen an exponential rise in guarana imports over the past five years. The consumption of energy drinks and pre-work out supplements containing guarana extracts has surged among the younger population segment in Poland. Local food and beverage processors are actively launching guarana infused products to capitalize on this demand spike. Moreover, neighboring countries like Czech Republic, Slovakia, and Hungary are also increasingly importing guarana. The increasing health and fitness consciousness of Eastern European consumers is driving the demand for natural stimulants like guarana. Furthermore, promotions by international food conglomerates through online and in-store marketing are responsible for raising awareness and trial rates for guarana products in the region. Strong economic growth and rapidly changing consumer lifestyles in Eastern Europe present a massive potential for further the guarana market growth if suppliers can meet the demand.
