Industry Insights

The global gluten-free chocolate market size was estimated at USD 1.40 billion in 2018 and is expected to register a CAGR of 7.8% over the forecast period. Increasing prevalence of the celiac disease is the key factor driving the product demand. The National Institutes of Health classifies celiac disease as a common disease; thus, an increasing number of individuals suffering from this disease is contributing to the market growth.
