112 suppliers are actively offering Cocoa Powder on the platform, which creates a competitive landscape where buyers can compare pricing, certifications, and delivery terms. The fact that 13 of these suppliers updated their listings in the last 30 days shows a steady level of activity, meaning the supply is being actively managed and refreshed rather than left stagnant. 230 active listings mean there’s a broad range of options available—different grades, processing methods, and packaging—so buyers can find a close match without needing to start from scratch with a custom request. This depth suggests suppliers treat Cocoa Powder as a core product, not a secondary offering. Suppliers come from 30 countries, with Indonesia leading at 34.8%. This wide geographic spread gives buyers flexibility to source from diverse origins, which can be key for those looking to meet specific quality, sustainability, or regulatory requirements. Buyer inquiries dropped 80.3% over the last 30 days, which could indicate reduced demand or a temporary slowdown in interest. Against a base of 112 suppliers, this sharp decline means availability may be more stable now, and buyers could find better terms or faster responses due to lower competition.

How stable is this supply base?
Three separate questions, answered in order: is the product fresh, is the market busy, and can the sellers be trusted.
Is there much new product?
Cocoa Powder had 13 new listings in the last 30 days, slightly fewer than the 14 the month before. When comparing similar offers, the listing date helps a buyer see which one is closer to current market conditions. Check the listing date when evaluating two offers that appear alike.
Is the market busy?
18 of the 112 suppliers joined in the last 12 months, a mix of long-standing and new suppliers. The group includes sellers with established records and those who are still building their presence. That means buyers have a broader range of options, but newer sellers have less history to assess. Review each supplier's listing history before reaching out to a new one.

Cocoa Powder on Freshdi has a median price of USD 2,500 per metric ton, FOB, based on 61 current listings. The price range spans from USD 416 to USD 3,500, indicating significant variation that depends on quality, origin, and processing method. Buyers should evaluate each listing's specific grade and certification details, as the wide spread suggests that price alone does not determine suitability for a given application.
The typical minimum order quantity for Cocoa Powder is 17 MT, with listings ranging from 1 to 20 MT. This range allows both small-scale and large-volume buyers to find viable options, though the typical value of 17 MT reflects the most common threshold for suppliers to accept orders. Buyers should confirm MOQs directly with suppliers, as variations exist based on order frequency and delivery terms.
CIF is the trade term used by 30.7% of Cocoa Powder suppliers on Freshdi. While it is not the most common, buyers seeking delivery to destination ports should note this term's availability and ensure it aligns with their logistics plan. A mismatch between buyer demand and supplier offerings may arise, so confirming the exact term in each quote is essential before finalizing a purchase.
T/T is the most frequently used payment term for Cocoa Powder suppliers, adopted by 55.6% of them. This term is standard for international transactions and implies a split payment structure, typically with a deposit upfront and balance due upon shipment. Buyers should verify the exact T/T structure with each supplier to avoid delays or disputes over payment timing.

Methodology
How the numbers on this page are produced, and what they do not cover.
Every figure comes from Cocoa Powder listings, supplier quotes and buyer requests posted on Freshdi in the 365 days to 1 November 2026 - 230 active listings, 30 buyer requests, 65 source documents, and 419 supply observations from the last 90 days. External export benchmarks are cited separately and never mixed into Freshdi figures.
Price and MOQ ranges are the interquartile range - the middle half of quotes, a quarter below and a quarter above - with the median reported alongside. A Cocoa Powder type is priced only once it holds at least 5% of supply price quotes and 3 priced listings with a real range; below that it is not listed. Buyer prices are compared only once there are at least 5 of them.
All prices are FOB, in USD per metric ton; quotes on other Incoterms are converted to a FOB equivalent. Freshdi does not hold a CIF price series for Cocoa Powder, so no landed-cost comparison is possible from this data.
Product freshness counts listings created or updated. Supplier activity counts sellers by their last update. The two are different measurements and will not agree.
Freshdi reprocesses market data every hour, with one snapshot a day for trends. This page's figures, certification coverage included, refresh every 14 days on a rolling 365-day window.
