Sales of chocolate confectionery will maintain low and steady volume growth over the forecast period, while value growth is expected to be stronger, as supported by high prices. Manufacturers will also maintain proactive strategies to sustain sales, despite rising input costs.
Market entry and expansion efforts, made by globally-strong brands in Mexico, are expected to bring digital and technological advancements to help reshape product innovation, manufacturing, and distribution. In addition to practical developments in local production, such as seen with the investments from Nestlé, big companies are also set to bring technologically enhanced developments.
In March 2025, Mexico enacted a nationwide ban on the sale of junk food in schools, targeting ultra-processed products high in sugars, fats, and sodium, including many chocolate confectionery items. This legislation aims to combat the country's alarming childhood obesity rates, with approximately one-third of Mexican children classified as overweight or obese.
