A DELEGATION OF “AMSTERDAM COCOA” VISITS THE ABIDJAN PORT AUTHORITY

Tuesday 05 November 2024

A delegation of Dutch companies specialising in the cocoa industry, known as “Amsterdam Cocoa”, visited the Abidjan Port Authority (PAA) on Monday 23 September 2024 as part of an economic mission to Côte d'Ivoire. They were received by the Director of Maritime Operations, Safety and Environment, Colonel COFFI Yao Emmanuel, representing the Managing Director of the PAA, Mr. Hien Yacouba SIÉ.

On the occasion, Mr. Marcel STAPPERS, Head of Mission at the Port of Amsterdam, indicated that it was important for the delegation he was leading to come and soak up the potential of the Abidjan Port, an important link in the export of Côte d'Ivoire's agricultural raw materials, particularly cocoa, for which Holland is the main customer.

The meeting also focused on collaboration with the Port Authority to explore investment and other business opportunities.

Welcoming the interest shown in the Abidjan Port, Colonel COFFI Emmanuel assured that the Port Authority remained open to all proposals that could lead to a mutually beneficial future cooperation.
