Market Research Future (MRFR) in their report has incorporated factors responsible for the popularity of the durian fruit.

The Durian Chocolate Industry is set to boom due to the odd combination of the repugnant durian and rich taste of chocolate. The infamy of durian appealing to consumer tastes is likely to bode well for the market growth. Unique flavor of durian coupled with demand for end-use products is predicted to drive the market volume to 12,924.3 tons over the forecast period.
The increasing demand for the fruit in Asia Pacific countries owing to its medicinal value is expected to hike the market growth. Its antioxidant properties coupled with fiber and vitamin-rich content in chocolates is projected to augur well for the durian chocolate demand till 2023. But the unpleasant odor emitted by the fruit has led to its restriction in public planes and can be detrimental to market growth.
Initiatives by various governments to legalize trade of durian is expected to favor the market growth. This is evident by the recent agreement between China and Malaysia which lets durian manufacturers direct access to Chinese regions.
