Connecting Farmers to Reliable Markets

Securing sustainable markets and value chains and communicating customer needs to farmer suppliers.

Spanning more than 8,000km from the Philippines in the northern Pacific to Samoa in the southern Pacific, GAP supports a regional network of growers to connect with the right markets and strengthen long-term supply relationships.

We also work with growers and local partners in Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands, and Vanuatu, helping producers access structured and reliable market channels.

Rautini is a social enterprise investing in both purchasing and supply relationships. Buying direct from farmers and acting as export partner, ensuring transparent purchasing, quality control, and logistics coordination. Suppling quality Pacific cacao direct to chocolate makers, and building long-term relationships to strengthen confidence in transparent, dependable Pacific supply chains.
