Cocoa Nect Partnership

ETG and Cocoanect announced today that they have entered into a global strategic integration plan, combining ETG’s industry-leading origin outreach in Africa and supply chain management capabilities with Cocoanect’s world class cocoa sustainability and certified cocoa business.

The integration plan will strengthen ETG’s presence in the Cocoa industry and further diversify its offering of products in West Africa.

Cocoanect has rapidly expanded to become a significant cocoa bean supplier with a strong and credible sustainable and certified cocoa business over the past few years.

The integration is expected to deliver significant value to all stakeholders by creating a consolidated, reliable and responsible supply chain. The integration of Cocoanect with ETG’s vast network and organizational structure will build a stronger cocoa bean trading platform and deliver value added services to their suppliers and clients.
