Cocoa Futures Market News and Commentary

Cocoa Prices Underpinned by Smaller Ivory Coast Cocoa Exports

May ICE NY cocoa (CCK23) on Monday closed up +18 (+0.62%), and May ICE London cocoa #7 (CAK23) closed up +6 (+0.28%).

Cocoa prices Friday closed moderately higher, with NY cocoa posting a 2-1/4 year nearest-futures high and London cocoa posting a 3-1/2 month high.  Reduced cocoa supplies from the Ivory Coast have sparked fund buying after Monday's government data showed that Ivory Coast farmers sent a cumulative 1.78 MMT of cocoa to Ivory Coast ports for the 2022/23 marketing year (October 1 through March 26), down -3.8% y/y.  The Ivory Coast is the largest cocoa producer in the world.  

Last Friday's monthly report from the International Cocoa Organization (ICCO) was also supportive for prices as the report said cocoa exports from the Ivory Coast fell -9.3% y/y to 530,314 MT between October and January, citing "the detrimental effects of cocoa-related diseases like the Cocoa Swollen Shoot Virus Disease."
