Cocoa prices are predicted to surge by 40% to 7,600 pounds per metric ton by the end of 2024 due to a severe supply shortage, as reported by a Reuters survey. This increase is attributed to major harvest issues in Côte d'Ivoire and Ghana, the world's leading cocoa producers, causing a global deficit of 475,000 tons for the 2023/24 season. Despite a slight decrease in consumption due to high prices, climate uncertainty and diseases like swollen shoot disease are expected to persist, keeping pressure on prices. The chocolate industry's need to replenish stocks is also anticipated to contribute to the high demand and prices.
