You are a reference producer in the Produce – Process – Export chain. You receive inputs, machinery, finance, agronomic advice and engineering services from suppliers and consulting firms. You deliver regular, uniform volumes to agro-industries, purchasing centres and exporters, often under contract. You secure the supply of processing units and unlock access to demanding markets thanks to your ability to meet specifications, certifications and delivery schedules.

Across the whole country, with a concentration in accessible lowland and forest areas: the Littoral and South-West for oil palm, banana and rubber; the Centre, South and East for cocoa and field crops; the Western Highlands for intensive market gardening; the North and Adamawa for cereals and cotton.
