A Euromonitor International analysis has ranked the 10 fastest expanding and 10 fastest constricting chocolate markets around the globe from 2007 to 2012, visualized in this interactive map on ConfectioneryNews.com. Belarus ranks first among growing markets at 556.6% expansion, though the company's head of food research, Lee Linthicum, said government price-fixing makes that measurement unreliable and claims Brazil is the strongest market. The report ranked Latvia the fastest shrinking chocolate market, with an 11.5% decline over that period.
