Ivory Coast, the world's largest cocoa supplier, has shut off it's borders with severely affected Liberia and Guinea, which has decimated the bean-picking work force
Our entire world's supply of chocolate has been put under threat because of the Ebola outbreak in Western Africa.
Ivory Coast, the world's largest producer of cocoa beans, has shut down it's borders with Guinea and Liberia, which has left the nation's bean-picking work force highly depleted.
The two countries west of the Ivorian border, are among the countries worst affected by the virus.
Ivory Coast is responsible for supplying 30% of all of the planet's cocoa and the World Cocoa Foundation (WCF) is aware of the implications such a move may have on the chocolate industry.
Most of y'all were saying close the borders to Western Africa. I guess y'all never realized how much trade the United States and other countries does with this region of Africa.
It's the end of the world
