    It's a shame that as an American in 2020, I know about Belgium chocolate but know nothing of chocolate from Africa. Especially given what Belgium did to get their reputation.

    Ghana should make its own chocolate and sell it to the west

      The west will barrage it with high tariff.
      But I agree. Ghana should make its own chocolate and stop exporting to Europe.
      After all, Europe cannot grow cacao. So without cacao exports from other countries, they do not have chocolate

    I don't think Ghana government is that very serious abt the cocoa industry. That lot of billions they throw away every minute.ignorance and corruptions is worse than HIV. Ghana by now should be the magnate of cocoa products.

      The Ghana government is fighting the international community for better pay. They are reaping the farmers not the government.

      Brother Coco industry was good before where the world was hunest. Today in most countrys what you eat as coco is just a joke. sometimes there is not even 1% of the product in the product. And the rich have enough to buy the best no matter what. That is why no one in power really care about it anymore.............

    I am from a Country where we have dark skin and no colour sceen people have always been living together. And we have respect for each other. But SO sorry I write this, I really am getting to believe that these kind of people are really STUP. Who in their right mind after 500 years of rubbin away all the natural resources help cutting away the last few that are left so that in eu or us or russia or arabs can have beatiful mobles!!!? They should protect everything with their lifes REALLY !!!?

    Don't forget to replant some of the cocoa pods to grow new trees.

  • @00SENNENGOROSHI00

    Ghana and Ivory Coast should hold their cocoa back while securing the growers livelihood (otherwise it won't work) and demand from western countries the price they deserve. And by "they" I mean the growers
    Together they could easily rule the cocoa market.
