Step 1

Decide if Sugar and Confectionery Product Manufacturing is the right industry to target

The Sugar and Confectionery Product Manufacturing industry

The Sugar and Confectionery Product Manufacturing industry focuses on businesses that process raw agricultural products like sugarcane, beets, and cacao into sugar or chocolate. Furthermore, it encompasses businesses that use sugar and chocolate as primary ingredients for further processing, essentially creating confectionery products.

What businesses are included

This industry covers a wide range of businesses, from large-scale sugar refineries that extract and refine sugar from sugarcane or beets to chocolate manufacturers producing chocolate bars, cocoa powder, and other chocolate products. Additionally, businesses specializing in confectionery products, such as candy, chewing gum, and chocolate spreads, using sugar and chocolate as their base ingredients, are included in this category.

When targeting the Sugar and Confectionery Product Manufacturing industry on LinkedIn, your search will automatically cover all related sub-industries. To maximize the relevance of your leads, you may want to exclude certain sub-industries that don’t align with your ideal customer profile.

Sub-industries included in Sugar and Confectionery Product Manufacturing:

Which businesses are not included

It's important to distinguish businesses that utilize sugar or chocolate in their final products but are not primarily focused on their processing. For example, a bakery using sugar in its cakes or a beverage company incorporating chocolate into its drinks wouldn't fall under this industry. This is because their core business is not the processing of sugar or chocolate from raw materials nor using them as primary ingredients for further confectionery production. Similarly, businesses that primarily process other agricultural products like fruits into jams or vegetables into sauces are not part of this industry.
