\t\t\t\tThe Cocoa Processing Company says it will have to use beans from outside Ghana in the production of its chocolates. <\/p>\n

Managing Director, Richard Armah Tetteh explained to Joy Business the high price of the produce is making it increasingly unprofitable to use the local beans alone in production.<\/p>\n

He said it made business sense for the company to reduce its production cost by sourcing relatively cheap cocoa beans from elsewhere.<\/p>\n

\u201cWorldwide nobody processes only Ghana beans and makes enough [profit] margins because\u201d Ghana\u2019s beans is the most expensive cocoa beans you can get anywhere in the world, he stated.<\/p>\n

He however maintains the company will not compromise on the quality of its products. <\/p>\n

The move is seen as some of the measures CPC is putting in place to improve its bottom-line. <\/p>\n

It recorded yet another poor year with a loss of 12.5 million Ghana cedis for last year.<\/p>\n
