Who we are / Info
The Ghana Cocoa Board (COCOBOD) is the leading public institution responsible for the regulation, development, and promotion of Ghana’s cocoa sector, one of the country’s most strategic economic industries. Established in 1947, COCOBOD oversees the entire cocoa value chain, including production, quality assurance, research, processing support, marketing, and international export activities. The organization works closely with cocoa farmers, cooperatives, exporters, processors, and international stakeholders to maintain Ghana’s global reputation for producing premium-quality cocoa beans. In addition to cocoa, COCOBOD also supports coffee and shea production through agricultural extension services, farmer education, sustainability initiatives, pest and disease control programs, and rural infrastructure development. Through its subsidiaries and research divisions, the board promotes innovation, productivity, environmental sustainability, and improved livelihoods for farming communities across Ghana while strengthening the country’s position in the international agricultural export market.
