Indigo was in great demand in Europe due a combination of reasons. They were:

1. The dye used by manufacturers in Europe was made from a different plant and had a very dull colour. Indigo on the other hand had a rich blue colour.
2. Industrialisation led to an increase in production of cloth and therefore an increase in demand for dyes.
3. The indigo plant grew primarily in the tropics.

Therefore, increase in the demand due to rapid industrialisation and lack of any alternatives led to the great demand of indigo in european countries.
