The coconut candy market in Asia Pacific is expected to grow from US$ 468.16 million in 2022 to US$ 638.49 million by 2028. It is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 5.3% from 2022 to 2028.

Consumer Inclination Toward Vegan Candies

Veganism is gaining significant traction with consumers becoming increasingly concerned about animal cruelty, sustainability, and health and well-being. Registrations for “Veganuary,” a nonprofit organization that encourages people to eat vegan food in January, are increasing at a dramatic rate, with 620,000 registrations in 2022. According to Veganuary, the veganism trend is becoming more than just a one-month commitment as a large number of people are permanently shifting toward plant-based food. The increasing preference for vegan food is mainly attributed to the perceived health benefits of plant-based food over animal-derived food. Moreover, the rising number of affiliations for animal safety is also favoring the vegan industry’s growth. Vegan candies, constituting 100% plant-based ingredients, are highly suitable for consumers looking for healthy indulgence. Coconut candies are also expected to gain huge traction among consumers with a rising inclination toward vegan candies. Confectionery manufacturers are launching coconut candies with vegan claims to appeal to a large number of consumers. For example, in January 2021, Bounty, a brand of Mars Incorporated, launched vegan chocolate bars blended with diced coconut, inspired by tropical flavors. The product is 100% vegan and gluten free. Thus, the rising preference for vegan candies is likely to emerge as a new trend in the Asia Pacific coconut candy market during the forecast period.

Market Overview

Australia, China, India, Japan, South Korea, and the Rest of Asia Pacific are the key contributors to the coconut candy market in the Asia Pacific. Asia Pacific significantly contributes to the production and consumption of coconut-based products as the major plantations are found in countries such as Indonesia, the Philippines, India, Sri Lanka, and Vietnam. According to an article published by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, the 15 member countries of the Asian and Pacific Coconut Community (APCC) account for a major share of area and production, occupying 10.7 million ha (87%) and 9.2 million MT of copra equivalent (82.81%). Indonesia, the Philippines, and India are the major producers of coconut in the world. Thus, it is convenient for manufacturers to procure raw materials for making coconut-based confectioneries such as coconut candy. These factors are anticipated to drive market growth in the region. Moreover, Vietnam is one of the well-established markets for coconut candies—Kẹo dừa—a Vietnamese coconut candy produced in Bến Tre province, Vietnam. This candy is made with coconut milk and coconut cream. Additionally, there are over a hundred coconut candy manufacturers in Bến Tre (Vietnam), making up 30% of local enterprises. However, the market is dominated by a handful of well-known brands, with most manufacturers producing candy under license for these brands. These candies are also exported to other Asian countries, such as Australia. Manufacturers offer a wider range of products in accordance with consumer needs—such as non-GMO, sugar-free, clean-label products—as consumers in the region are getting health conscious, resulting in the increasing demand for low-calorie and sugar-free confectionery products. Consumers in the region have diversified tastes and preferences and are fond of experimenting with new flavors. These factors are expected to drive the growth of the Asia Pacific coconut candy market in the region.
