Note on methodology: All sales, plant and employee estimates are for confectionery operations only, unless otherwise noted. In addition, Candy Industry has attempted to factor out industrial chocolate sales and plants. All estimates come from a combination of manufacturer surveys, annual reports, media reports, private and published research, and analyst interviews. For most public companies, projections were made for fiscal 2020. In some cases, the previous year’s sales were used with a correction for growth from the current year’s reports. For most private companies, sales are estimated for calendar year 2020. Currencies have been converted based on the average exchange rate from January-October 2020, and are highlighted in red. Wherever data was lacking, information is noted as N/A (not available).
