Boston, MA -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/09/2014 -- Morocco boasts one of the largest young populations in the region with rising disposable income. Despite growing awareness of health, schoolchildren and teenagers are largely attracted by sugar confectionery. Towards the end of the review period sales of sugar confectionery were increasingly driven by products aimed at children. Lollipops and such products as pastilles, gums, jellies and chews benefited from an on-going upgrade towards fancier shapes and more fizzy tastes.

Competitive Landscape

Pastor SA continued to lead sugar confectionery in 2013 with a 27% value share, with a slight increase on the previous year. The company's flagship brands Tofita and Toffee Top are leaders in toffees, caramels and nougat, holding a combined 24% value share in 2013. The company has invested heavily in distribution of its products, ensuring its supply across all distribution channels.

Industry Prospects

The on-going health and wellness trend is likely to minimise consumption of sugar confectionery, while the leading players are likely to introduce increasing numbers of sugar-free products in several sugar confectionery categories, including boiled sweets and pastilles, gums, jellies, and chews. This will be in response to the rising number of health-conscious consumers in Morocco. Other healthy ingredients such as calcium and vitamin C may also be added in order to lend specific sugar confectionery products a healthier image.
