SERVING THE AFRICAN ELEPHANT |
The modernized Ivorian agricultural sector is ready to play an active role in the development of the African Elephant. COPAGRI aims to become a major player in the Third Millennium, the African Millennium.
THE COPAGRI WAY |
Professional organizations prepare Côte d'Ivoire's
agriculture for the year 2000. We foster rural development
through increased sales and processing of crops.
By creating jobs in rural areas, we give young Ivorians
a chance to spread progress into the rural world. |
A DYNAMIC NETWORK |
COPAGRI is an Ivorian-managed private structure that assists rural cooperatives and insures the sale of their production. It interacts with 300 cooperatives organized around 23 warehouses and owns a fleet of vehicles. Bases are in Abidjan, Aboisso, Divo, Fresco, San Pedro and Soubre.
THE "SANTA MARIA"PROJECT |
COPAGRI has acquired Palmindustrie's Fresco coconut plantation. This magnificent site should be the ideal location for a family rest and meditation center. Visitors could learn of the richness and diversity of Ivorian agriculture: cocoa, coffee, coconut, palm tree, food crops, etc.
DIRECTING WORD: QUALITY |
COPAGRI's supervisors spread quality control techniques. They work to ensure that Côte d'Ivoire's agriculture sector meet the great challenges of the year 2000. Our strategy of proximity via the warehouses provides us with an active role in the growth of the agricultural sector.
