Global Candy Market - Impact of Coronavirus (Covid-19) Pandemic

The spread of Covid-19 led to lockdown all across the globe affecting the food and beverages market. Though chocolate consumption wasn’t hampered, the candies market did face a few irregularities in its consumption. Most of the candies are sold majorly through hypermarkets/supermarkets globally. With the implementation of lockdown, the hypermarkets/supermarkets were closed for a long period of time, which has ultimately hampered the sales of candies. During the lockdown period, consumers were concerned about stock piling of essential commodities to get through the pandemic. Though chocolate do not fall under the category of essential commodity, it did experience some sales for the children consumption and also as a source of comfort and indulgence for the adults in the lockdown period.
