Global dark chocolate market 2015–2019
Global dark chocolate sales are expected to rise from $34.25bn to $51.7bn by 2019 – an
average 9% each year up to 2019 – according to market research company, Technavio.
‘A growing awareness of the health benefits of dark chocolate (improved blood flow,
enhanced cognition and better metabolism) is likely to lead to a considerable rise in 5
consumer demand in the next five years,’ states Technavio’s report.
‘There is also a growing demand for dark chocolate in developing countries, driven by
a rise in incomes and changes in eating habits with growing urbanisation.’
India is the fastest growing chocolate market in the world, partly driven by rising demand
for dark chocolate, such as a dark chocolate version of Nestlé’s Kit Kat Senses. 10

Europe makes up 45% of the global dark chocolate market, followed by 32% in the
Americas, 12% Asia-Pacific and 11% for the rest of the world.
