Yayra Glover Foods and Beverages Limited is the food processing arm of The Group, set up to encourage and engage our cocoa farmers in growing other food crops beyond the cocoa season as an alternative livelihood initiative. It also plays a role in securing a sustainable supply of ethically sourced organic cocoa beans from our farmers. With the assurance of earning additional income for other produce during the off-season of cocoa, our farmers are encouraged to stick with us and maintain their farms' organic status. By the year 2027, we aim to establish the only certified organic cocoa primary processing factory in the subregion to process organic cocoa beans into nibs, liquor, butter, and powder for onward processing by the chocolate, cosmetic, and confectionery industries in the sub-region and beyond.
