Cocoa Ingredients
Cocoa has been a great area of focus and interest for FFP Limited. We have gained valuable experience in managing our family-owned cocoa plantations, harvesting, fermenting, drying, and sorting the produce and preparing them for local buyers for export. Now, we process the cocoa beans into ingredients for the food and cosmetics industries.
We offer a full assortment of conventional and alkalized cocoa ingredients, which encompass natural cocoa powder, cocoa liquor, cocoa butter, and cocoa cake.
We are experts at searching out the finest ingredients for the food and cosmetics industries. Our long-term partnerships with trusted producers and processors underpin our quality promise. Our quality control team has a strong focus on sourcing the best qualities, managing full traceability, and fully integrating quality control in our supply chain.
Our heritage is in building trusted partnerships with farmers, and processors across the country and the sub-region. We manage these partnerships to ensure we provide consistently high-quality products for our customers throughout the year.
Shea Ingredients
Shea, also known as “Women’s Gold”, is sourced and processed by our diligent women who manage our processing facilities. They employ the centuries-old, know-how, and craftsmanship handed down from generations to produce a consistently superior product. That’s the key to the success of our 100% Pure Unrefined, Grade A shea butter.
We are a socially responsible organization committed to following ethical business processes, and giving back to our communities. Our ethical sourcing processes ensure that the products being sourced are obtained in a responsible and sustainable way, and that the farmers and all workers involved in producing them are safe and treated fairly and that environmental and social impacts are taken into consideration during the sourcing process.
Our inhouse Quality Assurance and Quality Control initiatives play key roles in guaranteeing the safety and quality of our food ingredients. We have processing facilities that are dedicated specifically to processing food grade shea butter.
We work to the specifications of our customers to ensure all products comply with their regulatory requirements and are fully supported with comprehensive Technical Data Sheets (TDS), Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS), Certificate of Analysis (COA) - from external independent testing organizations or any necessary technical information.
Edible Nuts and Seeds
We offer a diverse portfolio of ingredients and farm produce that include, raw cashew nuts in shell, sesame seeds, and annatto seeds.
FFP’s competitive edge in the supply of edible nuts and seeds lies in the supply chain management that ensure we provide consistently high-quality products to our customers. We source raw cashew nuts from a large group of small-holder farmers and supported by our own cashew plantations. We procure cashews from remote farms and transport them to our warehouses where they are sun-dried, graded, re-bagged and transported to the port for export.
We source our sesame seeds from local communities in Northern Ghana where we have established long term relationships with expert large and small-scale growers. We depend on small-holder growers for all our supply of sesame seeds. They produce the seeds under special arrangements for us and are as dedicated to quality as we are. The seeds are selected, cleaned, and exported worldwide.
We have a dedicated team that works with our farmers and small-holder growers in the cashew and mango farming communities all year round. They provide timely advise on product quality, farm maintenance, and crop yields. Our long-term relationships with these networks of small-holder growers and local buyers in the communities guarantee our continued supply, and help to minimize the risk of supply interruptions for our customers throughout the year.
