\n

Ghana and Ivory Coast have set up a Cocoa Office here in Accra to push for common reforms in the industry for the benefit of both countries.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Ghana-Ivory Coast Cocoa Secretariat will ensure cocoa farmers in both countries are given the support and benefits they deserve.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Secretariat will also advocate for better payment of cocoa in the international market.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Speaking at the commissioning of the Secretariat at Roman Ridge in Accra, President Akufo-Addo said the Secretariat will work to proactively address the concerns of cocoa farmers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
