An object is to provide a production method capable of obtaining a carbon nanofiber composite with high productivity and high activity without the need to remove a fluidizing material or a dispersing material. In addition, a carbon nanofiber composite excellent in dispersibility is provided. A method for producing a carbon nanofiber composite, comprising bringing the catalyst and the granular carbon material into contact with a gas containing a gaseous carbon-containing compound while mechanically stirring the catalyst and the granular carbon material in a reactor. A carbon nanofiber composite comprising carbon nanofibers and a granular carbon material, wherein the carbon nanofiber composite satisfies at least one of 70% by volume or more of particles having a particle size of 1 μm or less or a volume-based median diameter D50 of 1 μm or less. |
