About Truecoco Ghana
Truecoco Ghana’s mission is to improve the livelihoods of smallholder farmers across West Africa. Having operated in the region since 2017, Truecoco connects smallholder farmers to trading partners across the world.
In 2025, Truecoco launched the first industrial scale biochar project in Ghana. Later that year, the project became the first industrial scale biochar project to be Puro certified in West Africa. In May 2026, Truecoco’s project received an A rating from Sylvera & achieved its EBC Agro-Organic certification in August 2026.
Situated in the Western Region of Ghana, Truecoco’s project is based within 50k HAs of coconut farming community - the largest in Africa.
The project is a high-functioning circular model that uses coconut husk waste to create a premium biochar soil amendment that is returned back to the local farmer networks. Currently working with over 20 local farming cooperatives.
Truecoco’s operational expertise as a leading Agri-processor and its experience of working with smallholder farmers makes the company uniquely placed to source and process agricultural waste.
