BTC's Role in Benin's Next Chapter

Benin is the largest producer of cotton in Africa with volumes exceeding 400,000 MT annually.


It is ranked 9th globally and GDIZ aims to leverage this opportunity complying with the Beninese government’s ambitious plans to accelerate cotton transformation and skyrocket the textile business.

By producing at the source, BTC creates value within Benin—training local talent, advancing tech adoption, and reducing reliance on imported textiles.
