India Cocoa Processing Market Synopsis

India Cocoa Processing Market has been attaining growth and is anticipated to grow more in the future. The consumption of cocoa in India has been increasing gradually over the years, driven by factors such as changing lifestyles, urbanization, rising disposable incomes, and growing demand for chocolate products.

According to 6Wresearch, India Cocoa Processing Market size is projected to rise at a CAGR of 10.2% during 2025-2031. One of the key drivers of this growth is the increasing demand for cocoa-based products, especially among the urban population. With a growing middle-class population and changing consumer preferences, there has been a rise in the consumption of chocolates and other cocoa-based products in India. This has led to an increase in the demand for processed cocoa, thereby driving the India Cocoa Processing Market growth.

However, the Indian cocoa processing industry is faced with several challenges as well. The country's cocoa production is concentrated in a few states, and there is a lack of proper infrastructure for the storage and transportation of cocoa beans. This results in high post-harvest losses and affects the overall yield of cocoa beans. Additionally, there is also a shortage of skilled labor in the processing sector, leading to lower efficiency and productivity.

Under this program, the government provides financial assistance to farmers for planting cocoa saplings, setting up processing units, and other related activities.
