Worldwide, 117 listings meet 256 buyer requests - 0.5 listings per request, so buyers compete for the listings on offer. The European Union sends 40 of those requests (15.6%), and there the same 117 listings make 2.9 listings per request. With fewer listings than requests, suppliers can be selective about which requests they answer.

EXW is the clearest mismatch: 16.3% of buyer requests ask for it, but only 4.3% of listings offer it (186 demand vs 166 supply observations). CIF runs the other way - 44% of listings against 34.4% of buyer requests. A supplier able to quote EXW stands out.

L/C is the widest payment gap: 31.9% of buyer requests ask for it, but only 16.2% of listings accept it (184 demand vs 218 supply observations). T/T is the reverse: 49.2% of listings against 38% of buyer requests. Suppliers that accept L/C stand out to these buyers.

Frequently asked about Raw Dried Cocoa Beans on Freshdiprice · MOQ · trade term · payment · origin · certification

The typical minimum order quantity for Raw Dried Cocoa Beans is 20 MT, with the lowest and highest listed orders at 10 MT and 20 MT respectively. This narrow range suggests that most suppliers require a consistent volume, making it difficult for small buyers to enter the market without negotiating volume-based discounts or long-term commitments.

CIF is the most commonly used trade term for Raw Dried Cocoa Beans, appearing in 44% of supplier listings on Freshdi. However, buyer demand for CIF is only met by 44% of suppliers, meaning a notable mismatch exists where demand exceeds supply in terms of shipping responsibility and cost allocation, requiring buyers to clarify expectations upfront.

Methodology

How the numbers on this page are produced, and what they do not cover.

Source

Every figure comes from Raw Dried Cocoa Beans listings, supplier quotes and buyer requests posted on Freshdi in the 365 days to 15 October 2026 - 77 active listings, 4 buyer requests, 126 source documents, and 761 supply observations from the last 90 days. External export benchmarks are cited separately and never mixed into Freshdi figures.

How ranges are read

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 Raw Dried Cocoa Beans 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.

One basis only

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 Raw Dried Cocoa Beans, so no landed-cost comparison is possible from this data.

Gaps in percentage points

Demand-versus-supply differences in trade and payment term shares are stated in percentage points, and origin rows add buyer requests per listing. Each figure carries its market scope - global - beside the number rather than in a footnote.

What counts as what

Product freshness counts listings created or updated. Supplier activity counts sellers by their last update. The two are different measurements and will not agree.

Update cadence

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.
