Who are we?

Carpenter Estates is one of the Top 5 exporters of Cocoa in the region. Nearly a century of history, we started our Cocoa plantation journey in the 1930s as well as 48 years of experience in the Cocoa hybrid variety plantation. We have a total of 1,500 hectares of Cocoa plantation in the Rabaul District of Papua New Guinea’s Southern Coast Belt. We are engaged in the entire value chain of growing, processing, and exporting directly, and globally

Why are we RELIABLE?

Multiple Cocoa Origin & Strong Logistic Line.

Sustainable premium Cocoa supply from Papua New Guinea PG & Oceania’s Solomon Islands SB & Vanuatu VU. We own 1,500 hectares of Cocoa plantation in PNG as well as constant supply from our regular Cocoa plantation partners in Solomon Islands & Vanuatu. There are a few domestic & international boutique chocolatiers that produce & market chocolate specifically from “Epi” or “Malekula” that have won awards for favour & quality. Notable examples are Solomon Gold from NZ & Gaston Chocolate in Vanuatu. Also, Carpenter Shipping is a part of our group, which gives us the advantage in delivery efficiency.

Why are we so CONFIDENT?

We have an average of 40 to 60 regular Cocoa plantation partners at every buying point in our 3 main Cocoa origins. In addition, we provide truck pickup services & also support the local collectors twice a week. The Cocoas will then be processed & stored carefully in our warehouse. To conserve the quality of our Cocoa, we ensure our dried Cocoa is placed on the pallet in a cool environment during the storing & shipping process. Quality control is assured as we will check the moisture of the Cocoa with the certified Aqua Boy Moisture Tester before & after the Cocoa is loaded on the cargo. Also, we will ensure the weight for each jute bag stays at the standard weight, 63.5kg. Rest assured as our entire warehouse & Cocoa assessors are trained & certified by the Local Cocoa Board at every buying point. The average Cocoa production/export volume per annum of Carpenter Estates is 4,000 metric tonnes. Custom shipping solutions are available tailored for your unique needs.
