Plantacion de Sikwate is led by some of the prime-movers in their respective industries. They are brought together by a common goal which is to enrich the lives of cacao farmers in the country. They believe in taking the next step to bring the Philippines back to its glory days as being one of the resources for cacao planting, production, and more. Their association may have started in 2014 but the respective members have over 20 years of experience in the field.
