COVID-19 Impact on Truffle Chocolate Market

Low sales volumes due to the COVID-19 pandemic and supply-side issues related to quality and certification impacted the chocolate market. In terms of exports, the Fine Cacao and Chocolate Institute (FCCI) surveyed the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, which yielded some troubling results. According to reports in the Dominican Republic, the drastic lockdown imposed prevented producers and agricultural workers from going to the plantations for several weeks until the authorities granted exceptions. Thus, disruption in the raw material supply chain, followed by lockdown, results in an increasing number of specialty stores remaining closed for an extended period, and decreased volume consumption of premium chocolates.
