About Us

Our Story

Chocolate is considered one of the world’s most favorite foods. It continues to be endowed with many research programs aimed at having a full understanding of its benefits which appear to be limitless. However, the story of its production and wealth distribution across the supply chain remains an enigma. That is what drove the founders of Agrobio who all originate from Cameroon, ranked 5th in terms of global cocoa beans production, to get involved. The story of Agrobio started in late 2018 on the basis of friendship and the notion of “Together We Rise”. This translates into communal empowerment and a collective effort of giving back to the community by the founders through extensive wealth distribution. Agrobio, despite being in a start-up phase, has successfully launched and received the backing of a substantial population of farmer communities within the Lolodorf area which accounts for approx. 30% of the entire national production. Our communal focus, attention to quality and a fair distribution of returns sets us apart form our competition.

Company Overview

We build our brand together! Our purpose is to build a global food value chain brand that depicts quality, equality, and responsibility in a sustainable way. Despite being a start-up business, we pride ourselves in punching above our weight in terms of business experience and the agricultural value chain, from the collective expertise of our founders and partners. Agrobio is a collective that relies on its farmer communities, partners and employees to provide a positive food production and processing system that results in quality foods to its cherished clientele base. This ecosystem and the interaction of the various components with automated and smart technology is the bedrock of our philosophy. We not only farm our flagship product cocoa ourselves, but also empower cocoa farming communities from whom we buy and process these through the use of smart drying technology. This ensures complete retention of product quality and nutrient consistency resulting in high quality products.
