Côte d'Ivoire market dynamics

Cote d'Ivoire concentration. ~36% of world production from a single country - extreme concentration risk. 2 million+ smallholder farmers averaging 2-4 ha each. Government CCC fixes farm-gate price, structurally underpaid farmers vs world price for years.

2023-2024 Supply Shock. Three-year cumulative deficit: production fell short of grindings by ~430 kMT (2022/23) + 470 kMT (2023/24) = ~900 kMT cumulative. Cote d'Ivoire/Ghana 2023/24 production fell 30-40% on heavy unseasonal rainfall + black pod + El Nino-driven Harmattan severity + cumulative CSSV + aging tree stock + smuggling + chronic farmer underpayment. NY ICE moved $2,300 (Feb 2023) to $11,800 (April 2024). Industry response: smaller bars, lower cocoa content, alternative ingredients, brand margin absorption (Lindt, Hershey).
