Global Green



Global Green is a plantation company in Ghana. It was founded by the Von Berg family in cooperation with Osei Bonsu.

Plantations
After visiting the plantations in 1999, Sicirec reported that the plantations were in good order and that they were impressed by the fervor with which especially Von Berg senior was shaping the Global Green projects. Global Green was also working together with local and national governments. Administrative and organizational transparency was found to be lacking, though.
