International Cocoa Organization - ICCO Official

The International Cocoa Organization (ICCO) is an inter-governmental organization established in 1973 under the auspices of the United Nations and operating within the framework of successive International #Cocoa Agreements.

The Organization comprises 51 Member countries, of which 22 are #cocoa-exporting countries and 29 are #cocoa-importing countries. These Member countries together represent 92% of world cocoa exports and 80% of world cocoa imports.

Our vision is to see the achievement of the objectives set in the Global Cocoa Agenda for a #Sustainable #WorldCocoaEconomy. This Agenda, an outcome of the First World Cocoa Conference which took place in Abidjan in 2012, is a roadmap set by cocoa stakeholders to achieve a Sustainable Cocoa Economy. Stakeholders have collectively agreed to tackle key challenges and take actions with respect to : #SustainableCocoaProduction, #SustainableCocoaIndustryChain, #SustainableCocoaConsumption, and #StrategicManagementCocoaSector.
