Although demand for organic dark chocolate is growing at a robust clip, conventional dark chocolates [continue to account for the leading](https://www.financedigest.com/adnami-welcomes-svenja-damzog-as-publisher-director-dach-to-lead-continued-expansion-in-the-region.html "Adnami welcomes Svenja Damzog as Publisher Director DACH to lead continued expansion in the region") revenue share of the market.
