CTPC offers different mass organoleptic profiles with customized roasting recipes to meet customers’ specific needs. Mass that is destined for European customers is melted in Northern Europe and delivered by tanker to the chocolate factories.
Touton has been a major player in global cocoa trade for decades. In addition to sourcing cocoa beans and cocoa derivatives, Touton now also processes cocoa liquor in Ghana. In 2015 Touton initiated its industrial development with the acquisition of a cocoa liquor factory in Tema.

Through its historical purchases of cocoa beans, its investments and the presence of an experienced team on its production sites, the Group offers its customers a steady supply of quality products.
