AGP Executive Report

Last update: an hour ago

Cocoa Shock Meets Consumer Backlash: With cocoa supply still tight, customers are noticing “less chocolate, more sugar” in some bars and brands—an echo of last week’s wider cocoa-price squeeze that’s pushing manufacturers to reformulate. Ivory Coast Cocoa Outlook: The good news for the supply chain: Côte d’Ivoire’s Coffee and Cocoa Council says 2025/26 output could rebound to 2.0–2.1m tonnes (+10.5%), helped by better farm practices and higher prices. Eid Pressure on Livestock Imports: In Abidjan, Eid al-Adha shoppers are paying more as sheep supply tightens—export bans and jihadist road blockades in Mali/Burkina Faso are slowing the usual cross-border flow. Digital Identity Push: Regulators meeting in Abidjan adopted a 2026–2030 roadmap for data protection and cybersecurity, framing data governance as “digital sovereignty.” Border Trade Upgrade: AfCFTA-linked plans are spotlighting one-stop border posts, with Togo’s Cinkassé model drawing attention as a template for faster regional movement. Markets Watch: Japan rubber futures fell as supply prospects rise and demand stays soft.
