Sugar & Confectionery Products

Sugar & Confectionery Products

The Sugar & Confectionery Products industry under SIC 2060 spans cane and beet sugar refiners, candy and gum makers, chocolate processors, and specialty sweetener producers supplying grocers, convenience chains, foodservice distributors, CPG brands, and industrial bakers with everything from bulk crystal sugar to premium confections and sugar-free alternatives. Demand is steady yet price sensitive, with margins tied to volatile global sugar and cocoa costs, weather-driven crop swings, trade tariffs, and tightening health regulations on sugar content, labeling, and marketing to children. Producers balance compliance and brand risk while investing in automation, food safety, and sustainable sourcing to protect supply continuity. For 2024-2025, momentum is behind reduced-sugar formulations, functional ingredients, recyclable packaging, and transparent supply chains that meet ESG expectations, while private-label growth and e-commerce reshape distribution.
