    The document summarizes a suggested supply chain for processed cacao beans developed by researchers. The supply chain involves farmers who also operate as nurseries, manufacturers who process dried beans into products like tablea and chocolate working directly with farmers, and domestic retailers and exporters who distribute finished goods. The goal is for each stakeholder to have more control over their value contribution to create a more efficient and competitive industry despite challenges.

    Suggested Supply Chain


    Based on the identified efficiencies in the existing supply chain of processed cacao beans
    as discussed in the previous chapter, the researchers have developed a more efficient supply
    chain. The figure below illustrates the suggested supply chain of processed cacao beans.
    Figure.

    The newly developed supply chain of processed cacao beans from farmers to
    consumers, involve the following stakeholders: (1) farmers, (2) manufacturers, (3) domestic
    retailers, (4) exporters, and (5) consumers. There will be a consolidation in the functions of input
    providers and producers of cacao beans as well as with the traders and distributors.
    3.1 Key Players and Functions
    1. Input Provision/Production
    The researchers suggest that farmers will also be nursery operators. They will
    not only be concerned with farm establishment, maintenance, and harvesting but also in
    purchasing of planting materials as well as in the distribution of fertilizers and other
    inputs. This will exercise great caution in the selection of planting materials, which is an
    advantage in achieving the goal to have higher yield. Low-input farms may often result to
    low yield and low quality production thus, also limits access to the market.
    2. Processing
    The processing stage entails the transformation of dried beans into a variety of
    processed cacao products. Makers of tablea and chocolate range from home-based
    processors to small scale companies. The researchers suggest that if farmers can already
    produce high quality of cacao beans, the processors may as well produce good quality
    tablea and chocolates. This will open a great opportunity for partnership between the two
    actors. It will be easy for them to have good communication which also increases the
    benefits they can get from the relationship. The two actors may also work together in
    creating solutions as inefficiencies may arise in the chain.
    Furthermore, the researchers suggest that local cacao farmers will only sell their
    cacao beans to local tablea and chocolate processors due to insufficient supply.
    3. Trading/Distribution
    The researchers suggest that the finished goods from local tablea and chocolate
    manufacturers will reach the end-consumers through (1) domestic retailers such as
    pasalubong centers, and (2) exporters which allows the locally made processed cacao
    products to have access in the international market.

    The researchers aim in the newly developed supply chain that each actor will have
    a control in the value they share for the whole chain to be competitive. It assures that the industry
    remains competitive despite the limited access to extension services and insufficient supply of
    cacao beans.
