Cocoa Beans Market Dynamics
Drivers
- Growing awareness about benefits of cocoa beans
The growing awareness of the health benefits of consuming cocoa-rich beans drives the growth of the cocoa beans market. Cocoa helps reduce hypertension, chronic fatigue syndrome, protection against sunburn, and other health benefits to the human body. Cocoa is also high in polyphenols, which help to protect the body's tissues from oxidative stress and related pathologies like cancer and inflammation. These factors are also driving the expansion of the cocoa beans market.
- Growing demand for cocoa based products
Increased demand for chocolate and related beans such as milk chocolate, sweet chocolate, and dark chocolate, as well as aggressive advertising by manufacturers to increase brand recognition, are driving the growth of the cocoa beans market. Improvements in commercial farming techniques are used to produce cocoa, which is expected to increase supply and thus improve growth prospects in the future.
Opportunity
Theobromine, found in cocoa powder, aids in inflammation reduction and protects against severe diseases. Since 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 as they are made from agitated, dried, unroasted cacao beans, raw beans are often less processed and healthier. Nonetheless, typical dark chocolate containing 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 beans, 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 Beans Market
Low sales volumes due to the COVID-19 pandemic and supply-side issues related to quality and certification impacted the cocoa market. In terms of exports, the Fine Cacao and Chocolate Institute (FCCI) conducted a survey on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, which yielded some troubling results. According to reports in the Dominican Republic, the drastic lockdown imposed prevented producers and agricultural workers from going to the plantations for several weeks until the authorities granted exceptions. Thus, disruption in the raw material supply chain, followed by lockdown, results in an increasing number of specialty stores remaining closed for an extended period, and decreased volume consumption of premium chocolates.
Recent developments
- Barry Callebaut has supended the global cocoa bean market's competitive landscape. The company recently launched the first chocolate made entirely from cacao fruit. This factor is expected to boost demand in the global cocoa bean market in the coming years.
- Southeast Asia's demand for cocoa beans has grown by leaps and bounds. However, the region's cocoa farmers are falling short of the product's ever-increasing demand. As a result, the global cocoa bean market is expected to see increased international trade in the coming years.
