2020 IMPACT

Home seclusion trend during lockdown boosts demand for indulgent treats, resulting in improved performance for chocolate confectionery in Q2 2020

The emergence of COVID-19 and subsequent lockdown measures including work and study from home policies for many Americans in 2020 gave a boost to retail volume sales of chocolate confectionery in Q2, as consumers looked to small indulgences to provide comfort during an uncertain and anxious period. The home seclusion trend therefore improved performances of various chocolate confectionery types which had been previously losing growth momentum in light of health and wellness trends, as consumers exercised greater portion control or reduced their overall spending on this category towards the end of the review period.

Major players consolidate leadership of chocolate confectionery but smaller brands and private label also find a stronger audience

The Hershey Co and Mars Wrigley Confectionery strengthened their leadership of chocolate confectionery in Q2 2020, with both players gaining further value share, through their wide product portfolios, established reputations and consistent innovation.

Chocolate confectionery loses impulse purchasing occasions during lockdown, benefiting e-commerce and supermarkets as consumers stock up

Sales of chocolate confectionery in the US tend to be traditionally boosted by impulse purchases made through grocery retailers or smaller channels such as vending. It has therefore been challenging to create opportunities for impulse purchasing online, with some retailers experimenting with a last-minute suggestion to add a confectionery product to a consumer’s virtual shopping basket.
