Cargill has been active in Côte d’Ivoire since 1997 and employs 500 people in the following locations: Abidjan, Daloa, Gagnoa and San Pedro. Our network of buying stations, commercial, sustainability and crop research teams work closely with cocoa farmers and communities to source locally grown beans for our state-of-the art processing operation which produces cocoa products for food and confectionery customers around the world. Additionally, we source and trade cotton from Côte d’Ivoire and neighboring markets in West Africa.
