Cocoa powder demand a positive for Guan Chong


Guan Chong expects the lockdowns implemented worldwide to result in some delays in shipments to customers and a reduction in the utilisation of grinding capacity in the near future, but it is confident about its long-term prospects and uptrend in chocolate demand.

PETALING JAYA: The demand for cocoa powder remains robust even during the coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic due to its diversified usage and this is a positive factor for cocoa grinder Guan Chong Bhd.
