乳糖に対する不耐性が高まっていることや、慢性疾患におけるヴィーガン食品の利点から、消費者はヴィーガン食を好んでおり、市場成長を促進しています。2023年4月に実施されたNational Library of Medicineの調査によると、世界人口の約65%が乳糖不耐症です。
さらに、砂糖不使用で低カロリーのヴィーガンチョコレートの選択肢が少ないことも、同製品の需要増に寄与している要因です。メーカーは市場に存在するギャップを利用し、自社製品発売を通じて消費者の関心を惹きつけています。
ヴィーガンチョコレート市場の需要に影響を与えるその他の要因としては、消費者の健康的なライフスタイルへのシフト、消費者の動物福祉への関心の高まり、無農薬や植物由来の代替品へのシフトなどがあり、これらも市場成長をさらに後押ししています。
癌リスクの低下が市場成長を牽引:
ヴィーガンチョコレートは、抗酸化物質やビタミンを豊富に含むカカオ、ナッツ、種子、果物などの原材料を使用しているため、癌のリスクを低下させる大きな効果があります。これらの成分にはミネラルや植物栄養素が含まれ、抗炎症作用や抗癌作用があり、酸化ストレス、炎症、DNA損傷に対抗するのに役立ち、癌の発症リスクを下げるのに役立ちます。
環境に優しいヴィーガンチョコレートが勢いを拡大:
持続可能で環境に優しいヴィーガンチョコレートは、いくつかの理由から消費者の間で人気を集めています。持続可能なヴィーガンチョコレートは、従来の乳製品を使用したチョコレートと比較して、製造時の環境フットプリントの削減に貢献しています。ヴィーガンチョコレートに使用される植物由来の原料は、天然資源の使用量が少なく、温室効果ガスの排出量も少ないため、土地や水資源への影響が少なく、より環境的に持続可能なソリューションとなっています。

Global vegan chocolate market is projected to witness a CAGR of 13.2% during the forecast period 2024-2031, growing from USD 1.11 billion in 2023 to USD 2.99 billion in 2031.

According to a study by the National Library of Medicine conducted in April 2023, about 65% of the global population is lactose intolerant.
Moreover, the lack of sugar-free and low-calorie vegan chocolate options in the market is another factor that is contributing to the rising demand for the product. Manufacturers are taking advantage of the gap prevailing in the market and tapping the consumers with the launch of their products. For instance, in January 2023, Moon Magic announced the launch of vegan, no sugar added, and low-calorie milk chocolate, which has 117 calories and two grams of total sugar. Additionally, the product is gluten-free and keto-friendly.
Other factors that affect the demand for the vegan chocolate market are consumers' shift towards a healthier lifestyle, growing concerns for animal welfare among the consumers, and a leading shift towards cruelty-free and plant-based alternatives further drive the growth of the vegan chocolate market.

Lower Risk of Cancer Driving the Market Growth
Vegan chocolates have a significant effect in lowering the risk of cancer as they have ingredients such as cocoa, nuts, seeds, and fruits which are rich in antioxidants and vitamins. These ingredients have minerals and phytonutrients, possess anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer properties, helping in combating oxidative stress, inflammation, and DNA damage which helps in lowering the risk of development of cancer.
Vegan chocolates contain phytochemicals, the nutrients that the immune system needs to fight off chronic diseases such as cancer. They also contain more fiber than traditional dairy chocolates, which helps in lowering the cancer risk. It is researched by the American Cancer Society, that vegans, appear to have the lowest rates of cancer of any diet. It is also estimated that 1.9 million cases of cancer will be diagnosed in the U.S. in 2022. While some people have a higher genetic risk of developing cancer, research shows that nearly 25% of overall cancer cases could be prevented with proper diet and nutrition.
Rising Collaborations are Gaining the Trend
Collaborations and partnerships among the manufacturers have played a crucial role in fostering the growth of the vegan chocolate market. These partnerships have helped the manufacturers in sourcing ingredients such as rich quality cocoa, nuts, fruits, and alternative sweeteners from the suppliers and producers to ensure a consistent and sustainable supply chain for vegan chocolate production. This helps the manufacturers pool resources, expertise, and research capabilities to innovate and develop new formulations, flavors, and product lines in the vegan chocolate segment, ensuring to provide high-quality and rich-flavored products to the consumers.
Additionally, collaborations play a vital role in the expansion of distribution channels, through retailers and e-commerce platforms, facilitating the easy distribution and availability of vegan chocolates to a wider audience globally. Collaborative marketing initiatives such as joint advertising campaigns help in raising awareness among the vegan population.

Environmentally Friendly Vegan Chocolates to Gain Momentum
Sustainable and environmentally friendly vegan chocolates are gaining popularity among consumers for several reasons. Sustainable vegan chocolates contribute to the reduction of environmental footprint during their production as compared to traditional dairy-based chocolates.

The product has been developed with Rainforest Alliance-certified cocoa and leads to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions while sourcing.

This diversity appeals to consumers, who can indulge in the enriched experience of vegan chocolates while supporting sustainable and ethical practices.
Dark Vegan Chocolate is Dominating the Market
Dark vegan chocolate is dominating the market over milk and white vegan chocolate because of its health benefits such as lower sugar content and the presence of antioxidants, appealing to health-conscious consumers. Having a less sweet and more complex flavor profile provides a rich taste to the consumers.
