Overview

Ghana Cocoa Trail

Learn about Cocoa in Ghana that began in 1870, when Tetteh Quarshie undertook a voyage to the Spanish colony Fernando Po.

Years later he returned to Ghana with several cocoa beans, planted the seeds at Mampong and made history.

Ghana is now the world's second-largest cocoa-producing country after Cote dÍvoire.
