Australian Company to set up cocoa processing plant in Kribi
An Australian company, Atlantic
Group, plans to build a cocoa bean processing unit in the southern Cameroonian
town of Kribi, reliable sources disclosed on Monday.
The information was revealed in a
call for expression of interest published on March 14, 2016, which invites
companies to bid for the implementation of this project initiated by Atlantic
Cocoa Corporation (ACC), a local subsidiary of Atlantic Group.
According to the promoters, the
“setting up of an industrial cocoa bean processing unit is part of the
objectives of the government to promote cocoa processing to the tune of 50 per
cent of national production, in order to retain a significant portion of the
added value of the country’s strategic agricultural sector.”
Cameroon, whose average cocoa
production is around 230,000 tons, locally processes only 25 per cent of its
production, a volume that the country intends to double by 2020.
This will be the first Cameroonian
experience of Atlantic Group, a company specializing in the catering industry.
