Market Growth Factors

Despite its non-customary status, high-end and craft chocolate varieties are driving the growth of Vietnam's chocolate market, with consumers showing preference for artisanal chocolate made from single-origin cocoa beans, featuring unique flavors and minimal processing. It is driven by a growing and wealthier middle class who are beginning to value quality. Many specialty brands embrace transparent sourcing through bean-to-bar production methods. The health trend with natural ingredients that reduces sugar has contributed more to the local premium chocolate sector's growth in domestic and export markets as consumers shift to healthier indulgence options.

E-commerce websites and food delivery apps also broadened chocolate sales throughout Vietnam. These actions allow consumers across the country to buy chocolates easily whether consumers are in a city or rural region. Social media and direct-to-consumer websites link brands to younger customers. These customers favor convenience and speed.
