Bia Analytical Launches Exclusive Cocoa Consortium
Bia Analytical are pleased to announce the launch of a Cocoa Consortium, a new industry-leading leading initiative designed to enhance transparency, strengthen supply chain integrity, and combat rising fraud risks across the global cocoa sector.
As cocoa supply chains face increasing complexity and fraud risk, collaboration is essential. The Cocoa Consortium hopes to bring together a select group of forward-thinking thinking companies committed to safeguarding product authenticity through advanced analytics and rapid testing technologies.
Led by Bia Analytical, this consortium will help empower the cocoa supply chain with faster risk detection using the Biametric™ Risk Dashboard alongside rapid portable and laboratory testing methods.
Exclusive Member Benefits
Contributing Consortium members gain access to a suite of high value tools and insights at no cost to join, including:
- Complimentary access to the Biametric™ Risk Dashboard
- Early notifications of emerging risks
- Quarterly updates on global cocoa risk trends
- Early access to new cocoa fraud detection capabilities
- Participation in expert led webinars on cocoa developments
- Opportunities to shape the future of industry testing methods
Supporting the Development of Advanced Testing Models
Participants are asked to supply representative cocoa samples, helping Bia Analytical build and refine rapid authenticity testing models that support integrity throughout the supply chain.
A Call to Industry Leaders
Bia Analytical is inviting companies across the cocoa value chain to join this exclusive consortium and collaborate in advancing global standards for authenticity and risk detection.
CEO Simon Cole said “The cocoa supply chain is under growing pressure from fraud, volatility, and structural complexity. No single business can solve that in isolation. The Cocoa Consortium brings committed operators together to raise the bar for authenticity and risk detection across the sector. By combining shared intelligence, advanced analytics, and rapid testing, we can identify threats earlier, act faster, and protect both brands and consumers. This is an important and genuinely exciting step toward a more transparent and resilient global cocoa market.”
