India leads the global beeswax production with a 2023 value of 140.82 million USD PPP. Significant year-on-year increase is notable for South Korea (3.3%) and Ethiopia (1.96%), while Mexico and Morocco have seen declines at -2.0% and -2.06% respectively. Over the last five years, growth has been strongest in countries like Senegal and Sierra Leone with notable increases, while Madagascar and Morocco experienced downturns.
Future trends to watch include technological advancements in beekeeping, impacts of climate change on bee populations, and rising demand for organic products driving production increases in countries with sustainable practices. Expansion in lesser-known producing nations could rebalance global supply shares.
