What are the organic cocoa powder market drivers?

• Rising demand for organic food products is contributing to the Organic cocoa powder market growth

Globally, consumers' fast-paced contemporary lives have altered purchasing food in a very short time. Consumers tend to gravitate towards more products that ensure protection and promote health enhancement. It is safe to grow organic products because they do not require the use of pesticides. This pulls the cocoa market in the food and beverage sector into an optimistic outlook due to consumers' increasing demand for organic and pesticide-free food products. The market has also expanded in recent years as people look for organic chocolate confectionery, desserts, bakeries, and drinks.

Cocoa processing and production companies are also focusing on investments in developing new products to reach a wider scope of customers, which will also be a factor for market growth. In the future, it is anticipated that the advancement of the organic cocoa market will be propelled by the expansion of the organic food supply chain and the improvement of organic agricultural methods.

• Increased demand for organic chocolates is contributing to the Organic cocoa powder market growth

The manufacture of chocolate products utilizes primarily organic cocoa beans. A combination of developed and developing economies successfully reaches out to consumers who have a growing tendency to spend more. In this day & age, one enters a food corridor in search of gourmet food that is both enjoyable and healthy. Thanks to the recent increase in the purchasing power of consumers, especially in the food, gourmet, and massage therapy markets, there has been a boom in specialty and premium confectionaries. Fair-traded and ethically sourced organic cocoa is the chief raw material used in making specialty confections. Social welfare ideals, single-origin cocoa, and labor-welfare sugar are among the many factors that have propelled the organic cocoa market in international trade.

Currently, in Asia, particularly presentable gifts in the form of premium and specialty chocolates are being offered more frequently to people in China, India, and Japan on many festivals and other occasions. The millennials' propensity toward consuming premium products is expected to positively impact the organic cocoa industry’s expansion.

• Increased application in the food industry is contributing to the Organic cocoa powder market growth

There is an increasing requirement for organic cocoa products within the cooking and food services sectors. Organic cocoa is becoming more popular in cakes, desserts, beverages, and even savory dishes at various bakeries and restaurants. Organic cocoa has several applications, which has compelled chefs and other culinary experts to play around and enhance the combinations of flavours to create satisfying tastes for the guests. The inclination for more sophisticated and different cuisine also contributes to the growing demand. With the emergence of new organic cocoa products in the cuisine and food service fields, the producers and suppliers can widen their market reach and create partnerships with key players in the food service industry.

Major hindrances in the organic cocoa powder market:

• The high cost of organic cocoa is anticipated to hamper the market growth

For the chocolate confectionery and desserts, as well as bakery markets, the key problem is the price of organically grown cocoa. It is expected that this factor will hinder market expansion. Most farmers lack knowledge of the relevant principles of organic farming, thus producing very little, which raises the price of organic cocoa. This market restraint is also due to the relatively high prices of organic cocoa and the low disposable incomes of consumers in Asia Pacific and South America, which are new markets. Nevertheless, the strategies undertake awareness campaigns aimed at increasing organic production through innovative farming strategies, which are likely to help the industry with the price problem.

Geographical outlook of the organic cocoa powder market

• North America is witnessing exponential growth during the forecast period

The organic cocoa products market is well developed in North America, where consumers appreciate its benefits and look for the best clean food. Here, the segmented market of health-conscious consumers prefers organic chocolates. Key market players, a well-established retail network, and the availability of a wide variety of organic cocoa products have contributed to this market. Moreover, it is another market opportunity for organic cocoa products with strict organic standards and a strong focus on natural farming. The market growth is due to the presence of many dairy chocolatiers, a well-organized supply chain network, and the demand for high-end organic cocoa products among consumers.
