Due diligence assessments for start-ups and investors shaping the future of the cocoa and chocolate sector
The cocoa and chocolate sector is inherently complex and deeply interconnected. Unfortunately, investors often lack access to the deep, cross-functional insight they need to make informed investment decisions in areas such as:
-
Cocoa quality
-
Cocoa productivity
-
Cocoa processing technology
-
Chocolate processing technology
-
Food processing technology
-
In-process flavour development technology
-
Novel ingredients
​​
The absence of integrated expertise can pose a challenge when navigating the nuanced realities product conceptualisation, formulation, process scale-up, supply chain dynamics, cost or capex implications, etc - all of which directly influence risk and opportunity. As a result, investors may struggle to conduct robust due diligence on emerging start-ups, breakthrough technologies, innovative ingredient platforms, or sustainability-focused investments.
