Ivory Coast
Export DataThe undisputed king of global cocoa and a rising powerhouse in raw cashew exports. A $28B+ export market that feeds the world's chocolate and snack industries, alongside significant gold and refined petroleum outflows. Get verified, shipment-level intelligence on every trade flow leaving the ports of Abidjan and San Pedro.
Cocoa Dominance
Ivory Coast produces roughly 40% of the world's cocoa. Its export flows directly dictate global chocolate supply chains. The Netherlands serves as the primary European entry point, receiving massive bulk shipments from Abidjan and San Pedro before distribution.
Asia's Favorite Nut
Ivory Coast has rapidly ascended to become the world's top exporter of raw cashew nuts. A significant portion of this harvest is shipped directly to Vietnam and India, where the nuts are processed, cracked, and repackaged for global consumer markets.
Gold & Refined Fuel
Beyond agriculture, Ivory Coast exports substantial quantities of unwrought gold—primarily to Switzerland—and refined petroleum products to neighboring landlocked African nations, making its export profile more diverse than often recognized.
Each shipment record is sourced from reliable and authentic trade records — delivering complete field-level depth across local suppliers, global buyers, products, and port of loading.
Ivory Coast's export destinations are defined by the buyers of its agricultural wealth. Europe dominates the cocoa trade, while Asian nations like Vietnam and India are the primary sinks for raw cashew nuts.
Ivory Coast's export economy is defined by its agricultural supremacy—particularly cocoa and cashews—complemented by significant gold mining and a robust regional refined petroleum trade.
The backbone of the Ivorian economy. Ivory Coast supplies over 40% of global cocoa. Shipments of raw beans, alongside increasing volumes of locally processed cocoa paste and butter, flow continuously from San Pedro and Abidjan to Europe and the US.
A rapidly growing sector. Ivory Coast has become a major West African gold producer. Unwrought gold is flown out primarily to Switzerland and other financial hubs for refining, providing a crucial secondary source of foreign exchange.
Operating one of West Africa's largest refineries (SIR), Ivory Coast imports crude and exports refined petroleum products (diesel, petrol) to its landlocked neighbors like Mali and Burkina Faso, acting as a regional energy guarantor.
Ivory Coast is the world's leading exporter of raw cashew nuts. Driven by massive demand in Asia, shiploads of raw cashews depart for Vietnam and India. The government is heavily incentivizing local processing to capture more value before export.
Natural rubber and palm oil round out the agricultural export portfolio. Ivory Coast is Africa's top natural rubber producer, exporting raw rubber primarily to European and Asian tire manufacturers and industrial buyers.

Ivory Coast dictates the global supply of crucial agricultural commodities. Its export data is the ultimate live read on the chocolate supply chain, the cashew market, and West African resource extraction.
When Ivorian cocoa harvests fluctuate, global futures markets react instantly. Export records provide critical, shipment-level proof of actual crop yields, shipping delays, and the specific European buyers securing supply—data that commodity traders need to outmaneuver the market.
Ivory Coast is actively pushing to process its raw cashews domestically rather than shipping them to Vietnam and India. Tracking export data over time allows analysts to measure the success of this industrialization policy by watching the ratio of raw vs. processed cashew shipments.
While Abidjan is the commercial capital, the Port of San Pedro is the beating heart of the cocoa trade. Port-level export data reveals seasonal loading capacity, bulk vessel turnaround times, and the logistical realities of moving the world's most valuable beans out of West Africa.
Often overshadowed by cocoa, Ivory Coast's gold mining sector is expanding rapidly. Tracking unwrought gold shipments to Switzerland offers unparalleled insight into the output of major mines and the country's growing significance in the African precious metals trade.
Every outbound shipment from Ivory Coast provides undeniable proof of global agricultural supply flows—from millions of tons of cocoa to the world's cashew crop.
