Asia Pacific Chocolate Market Outlook

The Asia Pacific chocolate market size was valued at USD 18.79 billion in 2023. The market is further projected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% between 2024 and 2032, reaching a value of USD 30.51 billion by 2032.

 

Key Takeaways

  • In Asia Pacific region, the unique flavours of chocolate encompass miso caramel, mint ginger, lychee rose green tea, kalamansi lime, Turkish coffee with cardamom, and coffee crunch cake bar.
  • As per industry reports, store-based retailers play a significant role in the distribution of chocolate products, offering easy accessibility to consumers through supermarkets, convenience stores, and speciality chocolate shops.
  • Notable players in the market are Mars, Incorporated, MondelÄ“z International, Inc., Ferrero International S.A., Nestlé S.A., and The Hershey Company.

 

The market is segmented into dark chocolate, milk chocolate, and white chocolate. Milk chocolate holds a larger Asia Pacific chocolate market share due to its popularity and versatility in various applications like bakeries, biscuits, cookies, ice creams, and dairy products. White chocolate, known for its creamy and sweet flavour, appeals to consumers seeking a milder taste profile and is often used in confectionery and dessert applications.

 

On the other hand, dark chocolate is expected to witness growth driven by the rising demand for its health benefits and the increasing preference for higher cocoa content products. For example, companies like Nestle and Mars are introducing dark chocolate products with higher cocoa content and lower sugar content to cater to health-conscious consumers.

 

Furthermore, the store-based retailers play a significant role in the distribution of chocolate products, offering easy accessibility to consumers through supermarkets, convenience stores, and specialty chocolate shops. Non-store retailers, such as online platforms, also contribute to the market by providing a convenient way for consumers to purchase chocolate products.

 

The influence of Western lifestyles and the increasing preference for chocolates over traditional sweets are further fuelling the market expansion in Asia Pacific. For example, in India, the growing popularity of Western-style bakeries and confectionery shops is driving the demand for chocolates, particularly among the middle and upper-middle classes.

 

These trends, coupled with the region's large youth population, increasing per capita income, and the rise of e-commerce platforms, are key factors propelling the Asia Pacific chocolate market growth. For instance, the e-commerce platform Alibaba reported a 47% increase in sales in 2020, indicating the growing popularity of online shopping for chocolates in the region as well.
