Earlier Report Observations

The market for fresh or chilled mushrooms and truffles in Uzbekistan showed steady growth in volume from 650 t in 2018 to 828 t in 2023. Production increased gradually throughout the period, supported by the expansion of greenhouse cultivation of varieties like oyster mushrooms and champignons, which became a year-round activity. The market demonstrated resilience during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, with continued growth in demand and supply. The entry of new players and the expansion of existing production facilities further supported this upward trend in domestic output.

A significant development was the rise of e-commerce platforms, such as Uzum Market, which became a new sales channel for mushroom products by 2023. This expansion in retail infrastructure, alongside a general 9.9% growth in retail trade turnover, facilitated greater market access and likely contributed to a sharp increase in imports, which jumped from negligible levels to 158 t in 2023. This surge in imports was a key driver behind the 23% growth in total market volume that year, pushing it to 828 t.

In 2024, legislative changes were enacted to protect rare and endangered plant and fungal species, restricting the collection of some wild mushrooms. Concurrently, improvements in e-commerce infrastructure and continued investment in the digital segment further expanded online sales channels. These factors, combined with sustained consumer interest in organic and local products, shaped the market environment, with imports rising to 197 t in 2024.
