In 2021, the export value of Indonesian spices to the Netherlands had only reached 43 million euros with a 24% market share, while the export value to the European Union (EU) had only been worth 100 million euros with an 11% market share. ![]() Indonesia's main export products for spices to the Netherlands are pepper (EUR 7.9 million), vanilla (EUR 710 thousand), cinnamon (EUR 13.5 million), cloves (EUR 790 thousand), nutmeg, mace and cardamom (EUR 20 million). The sectors that use the most spices are the household sector, retail, hotel/restaurant/café (Horeca). The Europeans also used spices as food additives, seasonings, and ingredients for herbal products, cosmetics, fragrances, and medicines. This is due to European consumers' perception of spices such as garlic, cinnamon and ginger as an alternative to increasing the body's immunity against the Covid-19 virus. The European demand for spices and herbs has been growing immensely over the years, especially during the Covid-19 pandemic, which saw an increasing trend of spices imports by 16.7%. Europe is one of the world's leading importing regions of herbs and spices, accounting for about one-quarter of the world's total imports of spices.
