Ivory Coast has opened its first large-scale chocolate factory. President Alassane Ouattara inaugurated the seven-million-dollar plant on the outskirts of Abidjan. Our African editor Richard Hamilton reports. “Inaugurated the factory, President Alassane Ouattara said, it would help the world’s top producer of cocoa become the world’s largest producer of chocolate. Most of Ivory Coast cocoa is exported in its raw bean form, and then turned into fancy chocolate in factories in Europe. But with economic downturn there, consumption is declining. So the French firm Samwa that built the factory is hoping to target West Africa’s growing middle-class consumer market. It says the customers, those actually eating the chocolate, will be Ivorians and West Africans. But whether the French can get what they want remains unknown.”
