North America Premium Chocolate Industry Overview
The North American premium chocolate market is highly competitive, owing to the presence of different local and regional players. Due to the presence of domestic and international players in the segment, the market volatility has been growing significantly. This factor has enabled the players to offer new products to the market. For instance, Hershey's and Mars are among a few of those brands that are continuously expanding their offerings in the premium chocolate category, whereas the Cocoa Exchange brand of Mars offers 'Dove Signature Collection' and 'Pure Dark,' as well as a range of premium chocolates, such as the truffle collection that includes premium dark chocolates. In June 2022, Purdy's Chocolatier launched the limited edition of the new maple sweet Georgia browns treat in time for summer in Canada. Some of the leading players identified in the market are Nestle SA, Mondelez International Inc., Chocoladefabriken Lindt & Sprungli AG, The Hershey Company, and Mars Incorporated, among others.
