Nambawan Super Limited (NSL) has lauded Paradise Foods Limited (PFL) and its Queen Emma Chocolate Company (QECC) for the official inauguration of their newly renovated chocolate factory. NSL views this development as a significant investment that will bolster local manufacturing, generate economic opportunities, and reinforce the value chain for Papua New Guinea's cocoa industry.

The factory upgrade, a joint effort by PFL with support from the European Union via the EU-STREIT PNG Programme, is anticipated to enhance cocoa processing within PNG.
