EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The chocolate spreads market in Europe was equal to 2.07 billion USD (calculated in retail prices) in 2014. Until 2024, the chocolate spreads market in Europe is forecast to reach 2.43 billion USD (in retail prices), thus increasing at a CAGR of 1.20% per annum for the period 2019-2024. This is a decrease, compared to the growth of about 2.11% per year, registered in 2014-2018.

The average consumption per capita in value terms reached 2.83 USD per capita (in retail prices) in 2014. In the next five years, it grew at a CAGR of 4.62% per annum.

In the medium term (by 2024), the indicator is forecast to slow down its growth and increase at a CAGR of 2.33% per annum.


The versatility of chocolate spread is a growth opportunity for the category in the upcoming years. Besides its main use as a bread spread, it could also be an ingredient for desserts or just an indulgence product. The continuing interest in the category has been obvious, as many companies are entering the area by launching their chocolate spread variants. Meanwhile, consumers are anticipated to be more demanding and to increase their consumption of premium products with clean label and health-promoting features. In response, producers are likely to introduce better-for-health products, highlighting the avoidance of palm oil in their products, as well as the use of locally-sourced nuts and the reduction of sugar content and saturated fats. Furthermore, the industry may witness the proliferation of value-added spreads with included nuts, berries, seeds like quinoa and hemp, grains, and others. Regionally, Latin America, Asia Pacific, and the Middle East and Africa are projected to experience a gradual increase in retail sales of chocolate spreads in the medium term, partially driven by the expanding economy and the growing middle class.
Another strong driver for the industry development in the medium term is the brand loyalty. In the jams, jellies, chocolate spreads and peanut butter industry, the brand is not only a strong state of quality, but also a key element as regards consumer behavior. The contemporary consumers prefer to buy products with established brands with genuine authenticity and quality. As a result, the premium market is thriving at the moment, since it shows that the products will offer a given level of taste and quality. Consumers will most probably continue to purchase well-known brands with a specific story and heritage, which will remain a main accent in the following years.
