#33 In EuropeEurope has a robust chocolate and confectionary manufacturing sector owing to European consumers’ appetite for sweet treats. Europe is the world's leading producer and consumer of chocolate. The continent was responsible for 56% of the world’s cocoa beans in 2021 and accounted for 76% of worldwide chocolate sales. Notably, renowned chocolate manufacturers from Belgium and Switzerland contribute significantly to this high export rate. Germany also leads in per-capita chocolate consumption, consuming an average of 11kg of chocolate per capita annually. Consequently, the huge demand for chocolate within and outside Europe creates a profitable market for European manufacturers. While nominal sales of chocolate and sweets have grown in recent years, in real terms, industry revenue is estimated to fall at a compound annual rate of 2.9% over the five years through 2024, reaching €71.1 billion owing to the massive wave of inflation.
