Cocoa, derived from the cocoa bean, is the key ingredient in chocolate and chocolate confections. The cocoa bean is the seed of the cacao tree, a tropical plant indigenous to the equatorial regions of the Americas – particularly the central and the south. With rich and deep, nutty flavours, cocoa has numerous health benefits such as flavonoids and antioxidants, and has been associated with improved heart health, better cognitive function, and mood enhancement. Not just a tasty treat after meals, or a snack, but cocoa also has a huge economic importance and contributes to the economies of countries like Ghana and Indonesia, among others.

Impact of COVID-19 on Cocoa Market
The sudden onset of the COVID-19 epidemic affected the global market. Strict lockdowns and other post-crisis measures enforced by the government resulted in industrial closures and disrupted supply chain operations across several end-use verticals. Mainstream chocolate consumption remained stable, but the craft chocolate faced difficulties. Due to stockpiling of goods, chocolate not being an essential item, but being a source of indulgence and comfort, the chocolate industry more or less remained unscathed. However, the craft chocolate sector and small chocolate businesses were affected the most, and a lower demand than usual affected sales and hurt cocoa supplies in storage and packing facilities.
