- Cocoa is the dried and
partially fermented fatty seed of the cacao tree from which chocolate is
made.
- "Cocoa" can often also
refer to the drink commonly known as hot chocolate.
- Cocoa seeds are
processed into cocoa powder for use mainly to make chocolate and cocoa
butter. Cocoa pulp can be eaten fresh or made into cocoa juice.
- Cocoa prices are affected by various factors including stock/grind
ratios, expectations for future production, demand, global food prices,
and consolidation/fragmentation in cocoa trade and processing industries
-
West Africa is the source of more than 90% of cocoa consumed in Europe.
Côte d’Ivoire and Ghana alone contribute 59% of the global cocoa supply,
with Indonesia, Nigeria and Cameroon accounting for another 23%.
- A
cocoa processing plant transforms cocoa beans into three main
components:
cocoa liquor and cocoa butter and cocoa powder. These components can be
used to make different products - The market for chocolates and other
food products based on cocoa powder
(chocolate flavored drinks, desserts and sweets) is growing.
Availability of raw
material and good market prospects make investment in a cocoa bean
processing
unit a profitable proposition - The products cocoa butter and cocoa
powder can be sold to confectionery and sweet makers.
- The
manufacturing technology is simple. However, suitable tie up for coca
bean
processing technology and product recipe is necessary - Cleaning
equipment (screening and washing), drum roaster, willowing machine,
roller mill, hydraulic press, kneaders, mixers and pulveriser are the
main machinery required.
- While processors of cocoa beans are located
throughout the world, the highest percentage is based in Europe,
followed by Asia & Oceania, the Americas, and then Africa
- The
Netherlands, as one of the main ports into Europe, leads in imports of
beans; the US, with significant production of cocoa complementary food
products, leads in imports of powder; and France, one of the biggest
chocolate consumption per capita markets, leads in chocolate
preparations
- There is import of cocoa beans into India from Africa
and the import duty is from 23 to 52 %
- Cocoa beans production in
India is negligible compare to that of Africa
- To process a ton of
cocoa investment of about Ten Crores will be required
