Peruvian Cocoa Grows Strongly and Achieves a 24% Jump in Exports

Peruvian cocoa continues to make steady progress in international markets. In addition, more and more buyers are recognizing its good flavor and responsible origin. So far in 2025, exports have reached US$660.4 million. As a result, the country has seen 24% growth compared to the previous year. According to ADEX Data Trade, this increase is not only due to the quality of the cacao. It is also influenced by the fact that prices around the world continue to rise.

In addition, many producing regions in Peru are working with better techniques. This helps the cacao arrive in better condition and in greater volume. At the same time, several international brands are looking for sustainable cacao, and Peru is responding well to that demand.

With all this, new questions arise that are worth looking at closely. On the one hand, which countries are buying more and why? On the other hand, will this pace continue in the coming months or will it change due to prices, climate, or competition? The answers to these questions will help us understand where Peruvian cacao is headed and how it can continue to grow.
