Cocoa and Chocolate Market Dynamics
Drivers
- Growing awareness about benefits of cocoa and chocolate
The growing awareness of the health benefits of consuming cocoa-rich products drives the growth of the cocoa and chocolate market. Cocoa helps reduce hypertension, chronic fatigue syndrome, protection against sunburn, and other health benefits to the human body. Cocoa also contains polyphenols, which serve to protect bodily tissues from oxidative stress and related diseases such as cancer and inflammation. These factors are also propelling the cocoa and chocolate markets forward.
Growing demand for cocoa based products
Increased demand for chocolate and related products such as milk chocolate, sweet chocolate, and dark chocolate, and advertising by manufacturers to increase brand recognition, are driving the growth of the cocoa and chocolate market. Progresses in commercial farming techniques are used to produce cocoa, which is expected to increase supply and thus improve growth prospects in the future.
Opportunity
Theo bromine, which is found in cocoa powder, helps to reduce inflammation and protects against serious diseases. As cocoa contains a high concentration of phytonutrients while being low in fat and sugar, the calories obtained from cocoa powder are rich in beneficial compounds. Raw products are often less processed and healthier because they are made from agitated, dried, unroasted cacao beans. Nonetheless, dark chocolate with at least 70% cacao is a good source of antioxidants and minerals, creating a huge market opportunity.
Restraints
The market's growth is hampered by volatile cocoa prices and limited cocoa production. Cacao products, such as unsweetened cocoa powder, nibs, and dark chocolate, are high in minerals. Raw cacao goods that have been minimally processed contain less or no added sugar and are higher in antioxidants than those that have been heavily processed, which is impeding market growth.

COVID-19 Impact on Cocoa and Chocolate Market
The cocoa market was impacted by low sales volumes caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as supply-side issues related to quality and certification. In terms of exports, the Fine Cacao and Chocolate Institute (FCCI) conducted a survey on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the results were troubling. According to reports in the Dominican Republic, the harsh lockdown prevented producers and agricultural workers from visiting the plantations for several weeks until the authorities granted exceptions. As a result of the disruption in the raw material supply chain, followed by lockdown, an increasing number of specialty stores are remaining closed for an extended period of time, and volume consumption of premium chocolates is decreasing.
