10 Nov 2021 --- In its financial overview of fiscal year 2020/21 (ended August 31), Barry Callebaut Group has surpassed its pre-COVID-19 levels of 2018/19. With a 6.5% volume growth, the chocolate and cocoa giant business has evidently outpaced the underlying global chocolate confectionery market (+1.8%). The confectionery titan saw its profit grow faster than sales volume, amounting to CHF 1,147.2 million (US$1,257.3 million), compared to the previous year. It reports that healthy volume growth of 4.6%, to over 2 million metric tons, particularly in Gourmet & Specialties, had a positive impact on the mix.
