The world's leading cocoa supplier, Côte d'Ivoire carries on its own nearly half of the raw material for chocolate. The 2023/24 harvest, cut by rain and swollen shoot disease, drove prices to nearly $13,000/t in early 2024, a global food shock. Millions of smallholders depend on a volatile price they do not control, between shortage and price collapse.
