Note on Ivorian data: Côte d'Ivoire is the world's largest cocoa exporter, with the sector regulated through the Conseil du Café-Cacao. Cocoa-sector counterparties such as exporters, processors and agents require additional verification of CCC licensing alongside standard RCCM checks.
Why verify an Ivorian company?
Côte d'Ivoire's role as the world's largest cocoa producer concentrates a substantial share of overseas commercial interest on cocoa-sector counterparties, where Conseil du Café-Cacao licensing is a critical additional check beyond the RCCM. For non-cocoa sectors such as financial services, telecommunications, oil and gas and consumer goods, verification follows standard OHADA patterns with on-the-ground confirmation of active trading status adding meaningful value.
