Koa Switzerland AG

Koa Pure is extracted from the colourful cocoa fruit, harvested in the beating heart of the Ghanaian rainforest. Not only does its sweet and unique taste wow people – it also carries great social and environmental change. By utilising the so far discarded cocoa pulp, Koa increases the farmer’s income and reduces food waste by 40%. Through solar energy, Koa is able to process cocoa fruits even in remote areas. Together with experts from the universities ETH, ZHAW and the Ghanaian UCC, Koa has developed a decentralised process which integrates modern technology into a traditional environment. The 100% traceable and modularly scalable operations enhance livelihood in rural communities significantly while carrying a delicious and exotic flavour into the world.
