The margin gap
Exchange prices don't explain your margins
London and New York futures are just the start. Between transport, processing, and local premiums, your actual costs can be 30-50% higher.
The delivered price gap
Does the price on a screen in London or New York tell you the cost of your cocoa or sugar delivered to your factory?
Record volatility
2023 brought record-high sugar prices and 2024/25 saw cocoa skyrocket. Which ingredient is next?
Global products, regional complexity
Even as a domestic player, you're impacted by global supply and demand.
Delivered sugar intelligence
Know your true beet-to-sweet costs
Track sugar prices delivered to your factory doors. See why sugar in Germany differs from sugar in Spain, with benchmarks based on the delivered prices other buyers report, or model transport costs, tariffs, and other premiums on top of the benchmarks you already use.
