Ivory Coast cocoa producers in sweet deal with Mondelez
Jul 02, 2013 Milka maker Mondelez International is set to help farmers increase sustainable cocoa production in Ivory Coast following an agreement with the local Conseil du Café Cacao. The chocolate giant will work with NGO Care International to lead a variety of ‘Cocoa Life’ projects. Mondelez International’s collaboration in Cote d’Ivoire is an important milestone for its Cocoa Life programme, which last November made a $100m commitment to help 75,000 Ivorian farmers double their productivity. In total, Cocoa Life is a $400m, 10-year commitment to improve the livelihoods and living conditions of more than 200,000 cocoa farmers and about 1m people in cocoa farming communities around the world.
