  1. Tell companies to open up factories in Ghana if they need a discount, or started creating your own chocolate products to take their market share.

  2. I think Every Coast is about to ganhe dollar reserves to create evorian currency to be stabilized after Senegal clashed with France. All ecowas members must be ready to create them own currency because France going to be dismantled in Africa,its sad but it necessary for Africa development…

  3. No doubt we are "poor"!! Even the new price, being called HISTORICALLY HIGH, is nothing when one considers how much work goes into producing cocoa. Same thing with coffee, by the way! The West has historically set minimal, slave-labor prices for our commodities. Very shameless and wicked of them!! They have practically taken away these commodities for free !Africa WAKE UP!!!
    Almost comical though, that a Western puppet, after having fought hard to derail the INDEPENDENCE of the Sahel States, is now copying their moves to achieve their sovereignty. Blessed be God forever!!

  4. As long as farmers in ivory coast and Ghana benefit directly to the price hikes then it's good because they have been exploited by the industry for a very long time indeed.

  5. The markets should be a good indication of what the product should sell for. Anytime the government gets involved in setting prices for something it's usually not a good result in the end. I predict any profits that may arise from this situation will not wind up in the hands of the growers/farmers but as usual in the hands of the greedy corrupt government machine.

  6. Nationalize the cocoa bean and add it's value to your currency….. The OPEC for cocoa and coffee, and tea sounds like a very good idea and ensuring a stipend for the people of Ivory coast / Africa to benefit financially from the global trade….

  7. These African cocoa-producing nations should each create a Sovereign wealth fund; each nation putting up a stake of $10-$50Million for their nation's fund. Then, create a chocolate "OPEC" for the world or just African nations to determine and "SET" global chocolate prices and markets. Make the product just like any other commodity, like pork bellies or coffee. As a matter of fact since most chocolate producing countries produce coffee as well this organization could set market prices for both. As the organization grows, it could help stimulate growth in the industry by investing in the companies that help market chocolate all over the world. Which, would help enrich them, in turn.
