COCOA EXPORT IMPROVEMENT: EXPERTS PLAN TO PARTNER FARMERS IN CLEANING AND FOR LOCAL PRODUCTION OF CHOCOLATES

Export and trade experts in Nigeria have made known their plans to partner cocoa farmers in the cleaning and drying process, to improve the quality of cocoa beans from Nigeria for export purposes.

Hmmm!!! Folks, let us say the truth and shame the devil. Many Nigerian non-oil products exporters have been defrauded of huge amount of money in the process of exporting agricultural commodities and solid minerals to foreign countries. Do you know why? They were not trained on export operations, management, documentations and the best methods of payment in export trade. This is terrible!!! Nigerians cannot continue to lose money to foreigners in the course of export business. Exporters, would you like to keep on being scammed? Why don’t you get a practical manual that explains the stages of export trade from processing and packaging of commodities to receipt of payment by the foreign buyers? It explains export operations, export management, export documentations and methods of payment in export trade? Yes, it is a contemporary step-by-step guide to export trade.

According to them, this is very vital, as it would significantly boost the country’s export trade, as the low quality of cocoa beans being produced sometimes limits export demands.

The General Manager, Barry Callebaut (BC) Nigeria, Adriaan Verbeke, said to control and maintain the quality of cocoa beans that are exported out of Nigeria, the produce buyer, after over 30 years of buying from local exporters, plans to aid in the bean cleaning process with local farmers.

While speaking at the launch of a partnership between Barry Callebaut and Cormart Nigeria Limited, for the distribution of the chocolate products in Nigeria, he said the company is currently focused on buying good cocoa beans from Nigeria for export, and analysing the market to know how best to start production in Nigeria.

In his own words, “When farmers harvest the products, they do most of the bulk of work, which includes the drying of the product after it ferments. They often dry this on the floor and when they do, there are little bits of sand that sticks to it and this makes it very difficult to export.

“We want to start working more closely together with the farmers as we do in different countries. This is very important because it will not only improve quality but also ensure that the livelihood of the farmers is improved.”

However, he noted that factors such as the infrastructural deficit in the country are still delaying their plans of processing the cocoa beans locally into chocolate in Nigeria, as they are very important for the proper distribution of the products.

Fellow Nigerians, are you aware that our crude oil will soon become useless? Yes, it will, in no distant time, become valueless owing to the fact that the countries that rely on it as their only source of energy are developing more affordable alternative sources of energy. When this finally happens, what will we do? How are we currently preparing for this imminent economic doom? Which other sector will continue to stabilize our economy? Nigerians, the only solution is developing the agricultural sector. In fact, this is the only solution. Very soon, the major source of revenue will become agriculture and agro-exports. How are you positioning yourself to play big in agro-export business?

In his remarks, General Manager, Cormart, Dr. Johannes Flosbach, said the company on its part would train customers who are interested in buying the chocolates. He said: “Our biggest customers would be companies that produce chocolate cookies, those that bake wedding cakes and so on, and we would teach them how to make the best use of the different types of chocolates. We will be advising customers on how to use these chocolates that we are selling it to them.”

Speaking on the impact of the Finance Act 2020 and tax raise on their business, he said: “This depends a little bit on the products. You would find some products where the cost is being forwarded to the customers and you would find some products, which are a bit more price sensitive where the additional cost has to be absorbed by the company. Either way, somebody has to absorb the cost. It’s either the customer or the company.”
