Last update: 5 hours ago

Cocoa Price Shock: Ghana’s COCOBOD forecasts a 16% drop in 2026/27 output amid El Niño-linked weather swings, swollen shoot disease, aging farms and illegal mining—raising fears of higher chocolate prices across West Africa. Cocoa Diplomacy: Côte d’Ivoire and Ghana reaffirmed a joint push for a fairer, more sovereign cocoa economy, including deeper local processing to boost farmers’ incomes. Aviation Costs: Côte d’Ivoire is highlighted for fully implementing ECOWAS moves to cut selected air transport taxes and passenger/security charges—aimed at making regional flights cheaper for business and tourism. Gold Expansion (Côte d’Ivoire): Fortuna Mining plans a major Séguéla capacity upgrade to lift recovery and target ~200,000 oz/year over the next decade. Trade & Mobility Event: EQUIP AUTO Côte d’Ivoire will hold its maiden auto/mobility expo in Abidjan (26–28 Nov 2026), targeting 10,000 professionals and regional B2B deals. US Visa Policy: The US makes its visa bond programme permanent, with deposits up to $20,000 for some business/tourism applicants from 50 countries, including many in Africa.
