Cocoa Marke is Anticipated to Grow to over US$ 40 Billion in 2022

Rising popularity of cocoa based products such as cocoa drinks, chocolate, cocoa butter and cocoa liquor is boosting the growth of the global cocoa market. Over the recent years, demand for cocoa products, especially chocolate has surged in emerging countries such as India and China. Moreover, introduction of cocoa based health drinks and a range of new chocolate confectionary items is also driving the global consumption of cocoa. On the other hand, high cost of production and inadequate supply of cocoa are posing a major challenge to the market. Weather plays a key part in determining the quality and quantity of cocoa beans that are cultivated each year, hence unfavorable weather conditions can lead to low yield, which remains a major concern for the overall cocoa market. Fact.MR’s recently published report reveals that the global market for cocoa will register a moderate CAGR of 3.3% between 2017 and 2022 to reach a valuation of US$ 40,206.9 Mn. For the last decade or so, a large number of consumers particularly in Westerns countries are opting for healthier alternatives over chocolate, many of them even quitting chocolate completely. This, in turn, is compelling manufacturers to replace chocolate with healthier ingredients in their indulgent products.
