Cocoa is a dark brown powder made from the crushed beans of a tree, used to prepare chocolate and give the taste of chocolate to food and drink. Cocoa is mostly produced by hand and minimally requires mechanized processes. Despite this constraint, roughly 4 million tonnes of cocoa beans have been produced globally each year since a decade. The beans are first converted into cocoa liquor, then into cocoa butter or cocoa powder, which is then used to make chocolate, cosmetics, and a range of dishes.
Global Cocoa And Chocolate Market size was valued at USD 48.2 billion in 2023 and is poised to grow from USD 50.56 billion in 2024 to USD 74.14 billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 4.9% during the forecast period (2025-2032).
The cocoa industry is projected to expand, owing to its widespread appeal, popularity, and application in the food and beverage industries. This includes chocolate prepared with single-origin cocoa, low-sugar products, premium and dark chocolate, and innovative flavours. Emerging economies are also seeing an increase in demand for cocoa goods. Chocolate sales are expected to expand in countries with rising GDP per capita, such as China, Mexico, Indonesia, Turkey, and India, as end customers in these countries have more discretionary cash to spend on such items.
