Retail value sales of chocolate confectionery are expected to rise over the forecast period, largely driven by price increases in response to sustained high cocoa costs. The global cocoa supply crisis, exacerbated by extreme weather conditions and poor harvests in key producing countries, continues to put upward pressure on raw material costs.
Innovation in Switzerland’s chocolate confectionery market is expected to intensify, particularly in response to mounting cocoa costs and growing sustainability concerns. Brands are increasingly exploring alternatives to traditional cocoa-based chocolate that still deliver a satisfying taste and texture experience.
The upcoming EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) is expected to have significant implications for chocolate confectionery across Europe, including Switzerland. Although implementation has been postponed until the end of 2025, manufacturers are already preparing for the new compliance requirements.
