UAE Chocolate Market Trends & Drivers:

Product innovation is absolutely exploding now in the UAE chocolate industry because it's not just new flavors, it's experiential and viral and hitting big numbers. FIX Dessert Chocolatier's pistachio knafeh chocolate bar broke the internet and sold 22 million dollars from Dubai Duty Free alone with more than 1.2 million bars sold. It even made it to the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland and people lined up in the cold to get it. That's the kind of cultural moment that changes markets. The "Time to Mango" bar, available for 72.25 dirhams from the Deliveroo app, is designed for tourists and UAE residents alike, given the combination of white chocolate, mango, passionfruit and popping candy that is luxury meets nostalgia. Al Nassma is selling camel milk chocolate as the healthier option, and Vivel promotes its packaging as Insta-content. And premium brands are experimenting with everything from spices to exotic fruits. This constant innovation keeps day-to-day customers interested, and always attracts new customers who have started to see chocolate as an experience rather than a snack.

Today, Dubai and Abu Dhabi are leading the way in chocolate retail, with malls and boutiques dedicated to chocolate shopping and an online presence that has opened up luxury brands to everyone in the United Arab Emirates. E-commerce is a form of retailing that reached a total amount of 125 billion dollars in the UAE last year and is increasing. The consumer's way of discovering and purchasing chocolate has changed. It is a segment not only providing convenience, but also opening market access for brands that do not have a physical presence in the UAE as well as local brands Patchi, Godiva, Bateel and Forrey & Galland. Retailers are also waking up to the seasonality opportunities, with special chocolate offerings for Ramadan, Eid and even Valentine's Day, all resulting in important spikes. With brick and mortar expanding into prime locations, and online 24/7, chocolate brands can be there whenever their consumer is whether it be at Mall of the Emirates or in the middle of the night, scrolling their mobile in bed.

A shift in demand for premium and specialty chocolate is changing the marketplace. Chocolates using darker and lower sugar chocolate, organic ingredients, and fair trade cocoa are becoming more common, rather than being specialty items. Consumers were willing to pay the premium and the government helped out by reducing the import duty on certain cocoa products and all of a sudden it became economically viable for brands to import high-quality cocoa ingredients. Many of our local chocolatiers are now competing at an international level, with packaging, quality and flavor profiles that can compete with some of the luxury brands from Europe. The Chocolate Makers Expo, is hosted in the city of Dubai, being one of the centers of the global chocolate industry. It's an interesting phenomenon. Consumers who are health-conscious aren't giving up chocolate. They're just upgrading to high quality, great ingredient lists and better nutrition profiles. For brands that have successfully expanded into the premium chocolate segment, the margin upside is considerably higher than all other chocolate segments, and the shift to quality is already proving profitable.
