Gebana Togo is a limited liability company that markets and exports exclusively certified organic soybeans and cocoa. Based in Lomé, the company sources its products from 5,000 producers in the Plateaux and Central regions.
Togo is a low-income country facing numerous development challenges. It ranks 162nd out of 189 countries on the Human Development Index (HDI), with an HDI of 0.512 and a poverty rate of nearly 50%. Togo is heavily dependent on agriculture, which employs around 65% of the working population. However, Togolese agriculture is poorly structured and underdeveloped, even though it contributes 40% of the gross domestic product.
Gebana Togo strengthens supply chains through its work with producers: technical training and awareness-raising on organic farming, field monitoring and advice, and assistance with setting up and training groups. Combined with its high volume of activity, this makes it a major player in structuring sustainable agricultural supply chains in Togo.
