In this case study, an international health ingredients company engaged CPL Business Consultants to assess potential market opportunities for cocoa polyphenols as health ingredients in foods, beverages, dietary supplements and cosmetics.

Cocoa polyphenols are associated with a number of positive health effects. In considering each opportunity, CPL attempted to determine the following: –

  1. Approximate market size, characteristics (including possible competitive products), trends and likely future potential
  2. Key players with an IP/technology position
  3. Main success factors and barriers to entry of successful key players
  4. Potential partner and acquisition targets (either key players with IP/technology or good science-based ‘other’ players with good products)
  5. Key market segments in terms of applications or health conditions targeted
  6. Associated health benefits
  7. Scientific substantiation
  8. Possible use of the polyphenol (or the extract) as a technological antioxidant
