Dear Beautiful Readers:

In our quest to find a sounding board for a practical solution that could benefit the small farm holders of the tropical belt nations of cacao and coffee, we have decided to modify our outline. We are so thankful for all our lovely students and readers who have requested that we provide more knowledge about the historical whereabouts and expand our agenda to analyze the whole scope of the industry’s business models in the midstream and downstream sections.
We have analyzed our schedules, and we are comfortable enough to expand this saga by adding 8 additional bonus episodes. We will include the historical background of the nations that we have chosen for the next three additional episodes. We have selected Brazil, Colombia, and Honduras. To include the historical background of the coffee industry cradle in these three nations obliges us to detour from our original outline. To embrace an historical industrial analysis duplicates, and even triplicates, our content production. In consequence, we will boost our next three publications accordingly, and we will publish episode 14 using the Brazilian case on the 11th of September. Then, the financing-access to capital using the Colombian experience on the 25th of September; and finally, the last one on Key Partnerships about Honduras, on the 9th of October. After that, we will continue with the new themes, calibrating our activities in the usual weekly schedule until the 4th of December. We promise to close this beautiful saga then.

We appreciate your understanding. Our role as professors is to help you to construct the core building blocks of this topic with the appropriate clarity of our research. Consequently, we truly require these additional final episodes. The best part is yet to come. This saga will be superb and positively great if we analyze the business models of Nigeria, Perú, the Midstream main players of the chocolate trade, and the Downstream promising coffee shops. Finally, we will provide the comparative analysis for both plantations.

See how our outline has been extended below:

Thank you. See you next Friday. My sincere appreciation for the small farmers of the Tropical Belt Nations on Earth. Our energy and strategic stamina this year are to help you leave poverty behind, without violence, without conflict, using the best possible negotiation skills and a win-win strategic academic foundation. God is good. Blessings.
