For Colombia, cacao is more than just a crop to export – it’s a symbol for peace, prosperity and opportunity.
The country has prioritized cacao not only for its quality – 95 percent of the beans Colombia produces are fine or flavor cacao, according to the International Cocoa Organization (ICCO) – but also because it offers the country a chance to improve farmer livelihoods, bring security to growing regions, and expand its presence on the global stage.
