We work with farmers across Indonesia to buy the highest quality food products and transform them to provide your business a complete ingredient product portfolio. Since 1996, we have gradually built up our presence in this vast country from a simple trader to large scale midstream player. We buy cocoa, coffee, nutmeg, and black and white pepper from more than 400,000 farmers, collectors and suppliers throughout the archipelago.
We are the country’s largest exporter of Robusta coffee and a leading exporter of Arabica, with a combined market share of approximately 15%. We are also the largest exporter of cocoa products and ingredients and have cocoa processing operations at our BT Cocoa facility in Jakarta.
We provide direct employment to almost 1,400 employees and over 1,150 seasonal workers who work closely with our suppliers in locations from North Sumatra through the heartlands of Java to the eastern region of Sulawesi.
A very important element of our business in Indonesia is the support we provide for coffee and cocoa farming communities. Overall, we are supporting around 70,000 farmers through programmes to help increase their yields.
