Cacao farm

Biao Agrarian Reform Beneficiaries Cooperative (BARBCO) general manager Guadalupe Ocial showcases their cacao plantation. Land Bank of the Philippines’ support was instrumental in the success of the BARBCO, whose portfolio includes the consolidation and processing of cacao beans into various chocolate products, including tablea, nibs, cacao butter and powder. Access to credit and ease of doing business with LandBank has empowered BARBCO to expand to Davao del Norte, Davao Occidental and Davao del Sur.
