description The main objective is to analyze economically the cocoa sector in Norte de Santander State, in Colombia and at an international level. The method is deductive with a descriptive and a field research, besides some databases such as Colombian and international cocoa institutions were consulted as well as documentary sources of state and private organizations. In terms of results and conclusions, Norte de Santander State and Colombia need to increase cocoa production, to promote the crop’s technification to take advantage of the high international demand for cocoa and its by-products, as well as the good prices for extending the international participation, considering the differential advantage with its fine flavour and aroma. Therefore, it is necessary to generate an added value, competitiveness; to use the advantages of the active free trade agreements in Colombia and the projection of cocoa as a key crop of the Colombian post-conflict.

El objetivo principal es analizar económicamente el sector cacaotero en Norte de Santander, Colombia y a nivel internacional. El método es deductivo con estudio descriptivo y de campo. Se consultaron fuentes como instituciones del cacao en Colombia y a nivel internacional, así como fuentes documentales de organismos estatales y privados. En cuanto a resultados y conclusiones se tiene que en Norte de Santander, así  como en Colombia, se requiere aumentar la producción de cacao y su tecnificación en el cultivo para aprovechar la alta demanda internacional de cacao y sus derivados, así como los buenos precios para ampliar su participación internacional, tomando la ventaja diferencial del cacao fino y de aroma. Lo anterior debe ir acompañado de la generación de valor agregado, competitividad, aprovechamiento de los tratados comerciales vigentes en Colombia y la proyección del cacao como cultivo clave del postconflicto colombiano.
