Quite a long time, chocolate was not treated as part of national diet, despite of Ivory Coast having the world biggest grower of cocoa beans.
The first major chocolate plant is willing to change this situation.
“Made in Ivory Coast” will be produced and largely promoted by the plant throughout the country with an investment of about 4.28m and 10000 tonnes annually.
Alassane Ouattara, president of Ivory Coast, toured the new facility in Abidjan, earlier this week. And he pointed that they wanted to have an ability to make chocolate for people in Ivory Coast as well as people in other countries in Africa.
