Exporting cocoa to Germany

Germany is one of the biggest and most interesting cocoa and chocolate markets in Europe. It offers good chances for cocoa exporters and small chocolate businesses from producing countries. Most of the cocoa which is ground and processed is still what is called bulk cocoa. There is however, a small but existing niche for premium, high-quality cocoa. This niche is slowly growing. Some consumers want cocoa that is high quality, organic, and made in a fair and sustainable way. This offers opportunities for exporters from producing countries who can meet Germany’s high standards.
