Vietnam Candy Industry Report 2024-2033, Featuring Mars Vietnam, Nestle Vietnam, Chocolaterie Guylian, Perfetti Van Melle Vietnam and Haiha Confectionery


Dublin, July 17, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Vietnam Candy Industry Research Report 2024-2033" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

In 2023, Vietnam's candy sales grew by 6.9% year-on-year, reaching US$ 518 million. Vietnam's candy industry can be primarily divided into chocolate, hard candy, and soft candy. Soft candy holds the largest market share, with sales reaching US$ 170 million in 2023, up 5.6% year-on-year.

Chocolate is the fastest-growing category, with an average annual growth rate of 8.6% over the past five years, reaching US$ 140 million in 2023, a 7.7% increase from the previous year.

In terms of retail channels, supermarkets remain the primary retail distribution channel for chocolate candy in Vietnam due to their modern storage systems and air-conditioned spaces. Chocolate is challenging to store in Vietnam's typical high-temperature environment, posing difficulties for traditional grocery stores, which often lack refrigerated display cases or cold chain distribution systems to maintain product integrity during transportation. Supermarkets, typically equipped with air conditioning, are better suited to keep products cool during transit. Additionally, the primary buyers of chocolate candy are affluent urban consumers, who are also the main target market for supermarkets. These consumers value the one-stop shopping experience provided by supermarkets, which can save them time on daily necessities purchases.

In Vietnam's candy market, the main players in the chocolate and sugar candy segments have little overlap, with each company primarily focusing on its main track. According to the publisher, the major players in Vietnam's chocolate market include Mars Vietnam Co Ltd, Nestle Vietnam Co Ltd, and Chocolaterie Guylian NV. Key players in the sugar candy market include Perfetti Van Melle Vietnam Ltd and Haiha Confectionery JSC.

After the end of the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been an increased focus on health and wellness, with consumers making more conscious decisions regarding food intake. People are increasingly inclined to choose healthier chocolates, such as dark chocolate with reduced sugar or added nuts and fruits for functional benefits. In the sugar candy market, Vietnamese consumers increasingly prefer the elasticity and soft texture of gummies, jellies, and chewable candies. These products' soft texture is suitable for children, and by offering products in cute shapes like animals, fruits, or toys, sub-categories like gummies, jellies, and chewable tablets may become more appealing to children, potentially becoming the primary audience for gummies in the future.

Over the next few years, with the continued growth of Vietnam's economy, the sales of sugar candies are expected to expand further. Product innovation is also likely to stimulate consumer demand, supported by significant investments in marketing and advertising activities by leading companies. However, given the growing health consciousness among Vietnamese consumers, many aim to reduce their daily sugar intake. High sugar diets are well-known to be associated with obesity, diabetes, and other chronic diseases. Increased disposable incomes and higher education levels will drive this shift towards healthier diets, with more affluent and knowledgeable consumers more likely to make informed dietary choices.

Nevertheless, it should be noted that most consumers will continue to seek 'reduced sugar' rather than 'sugar-free' options, as they do not want to forgo the sweetness of candy. Thus, leading brands in this category are expected to focus on providing lower-sugar products rather than sugar-free ones.

In addition to developing low-sugar candies, there may be a growing demand for functional products with additional health benefits, such as boosting the immune system, enhancing energy levels, or reducing stress. Therefore, ingredients like vitamins, minerals, and herbal extracts are expected to be incorporated into Vietnamese candy products to meet this demand.

Vietnam's candy industry is forecast to continue to grow, with the market size expected to reach US$ 1.13 billion by 2033, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.1% from 2024 to 2033.
