It only takes a few seconds after meeting Kora Bernabe, VALCACO's President, to be inspired. Martinique's cacao is hugely indebted to her for its quality and availability in recent years.
VALCACO, the Martinique cacao producers' association, was set up in 2015 with the aim of relaunching a cacao industry of excellence in Martinique. It brings together 50 producers and employs people responsible for processing the pods into cacao (fermentation, drying) in a centralised way, guaranteeing a high level of traceability and quality.
