Carob Chocolate Market Share, Growth and Future Analysis

The growing product demand as a healthier alternative, coupled with the growing expansion of online retail in the nutritional foods sector is acting as a major driver. The growing consumer demand for foods of higher nutritional and sensory quality has encouraged the introduction of carob ingredients, in bakery products. Carob is a good source of antioxidants, as one tablespoon of it processed into a powder has approximately 25 calories, no saturated fat, no cholesterol, and 6g of carbohydrate. As compared to carob powder cocoa powder has more fat and caffeine. Carob also contains three times as much calcium as cocoa powder, has a high iron content, and is claimed to reduce cholesterol. Growing awareness regarding such benefits is driving product sales.

The increased consumer demand for organic products has prompted several manufacturers to enter new industries with a slew of product launches. In this regard, brands are coming up with organic carbo chocolates. For instance, in January 2020, Carobou, the official importer and producer of The Australian Carob Co., released organic carob chocolate bars under the brand Aussie USA, which is USDA-certified organic, soy-free, and caffeine-theobromine-free. The supermarkets & hypermarkets segment accounted for the maximum revenue share in 2020. Supermarkets/hypermarkets offer a variety of products. Owing to the increasing demand for healthy products, many of these stores have been increasing shelf space and providing trained professionals that guide customers about the quality of the products, offer food samples, and provide expert recommendations.
