Chocolate has significant traction among consumers in Japan and is considered a standard sweet. In this regard, a combination of a well-established health-food labeling system, aggressive product line development, and consumer awareness are driving the growth of the studied market.

Other than this, chocolate confectionery products hold the majority of the market share in the country. Therefore, the aforementioned factors indicate the robust growth of the cocoa market across Japan.

The studied market's growth in India is attributed to the rising disposable income, coupled with growing demand among the younger generation.
