Setting up a new value chain for almonds from Tunisia in just nine months was no easy task. But the deed is done. Well, almost.
After a terrible harvest in 2015/2016 due to lack of rain, last year's harvest was great. In 2017/2018 it is just.. OK!
The date harvest will soon start in the oases of southern Tunisia. It marks the beginning of a very exciting time.
The harvest season starts soon and raw cashew nuts are already falling from the trees.
It has been two months that I’m now working for Gebana. After my first Togo trip I spent a month in the office in Zurich and I’m now flying back from Cotonou, Benin.
Founding a cocoa cooperative and gebana Togo comes with major challenges for both the farmers and gebana. But it’s worth it: the quantity of exclusive organic and fair-trade cocoa from Togo is continuously growing.
The cashew growers are making the most of the skyrocketing cashew prices that have come about as a result of demand from Asia, and are selling to the highest bidders — in spite of their contracts with gebana. What do the farmers themselves say about this?
The cashew harvest began in February as it always does, but it soon became apparent that everything would be different this time.
When, in January 2011, the Tunisian dictator Zine al-Abidine Ben Ali fled to Saudi Arabia, a breeze of freedom swept through not only North Africa but the whole Arab world.

Tunisians, Egyptians and other people throughout the different countries let an “Arab Spring” begin.
