Ivory Coast, the world's leading cocoa producer, has seen a 14.2% decrease in cocoa milling in September 2024, totaling 54,984 metric tons. This decline, part of an overall 13.1% drop since the start of the 2023/24 season, is attributed to challenges such as high operating costs, crop quality issues, and logistical and climate problems, despite the sector having a total capacity of 712,000 tons per year. This reduction could impact the global chocolate market and have implications for export prices of raw cocoa. The industry is closely monitoring the situation as the end of the 2023/24 season approaches, with expectations for recovery strategies to be implemented.
