CocoaTech D'Ivoire
New-generation Ivorian cocoa mass factory adding value to local beans at origin.
CocoaTech D'Ivoire is a Larive-backed project officially launched in 2024 to establish a cocoa mass production factory in Côte d'Ivoire, enabling local value addition to the country's world-leading cocoa bean production.
