CAPROS SV, S.A.S. DE C.V. is a technical and commercial intermediation platform for the cocoa value chain in El Salvador, legally established on February 24, 2026. Its mission is to connect cacao producers with national and international markets, closing the gaps in technical assistance, quality, and traceability that have historically limited the potential of Salvadoran cacao. The context that gave rise to CAPROS is urgent: El Salvador has more than 2,000 cacao-producing families, yet only 10% have received technical training, barely 1% transform their cacao into chocolate or other derivatives, and from the annual market of $12 million generated by this sector, only a minimal share actually reaches the producer. CAPROS was created to change this reality. The company operates at the critical points of the productive chain: hands-on field technical training, fermentation and drying supervision, classification and quality parameter control, coordination of primary and secondary processing, consolidation of volumes and lots, and commercial management with traceability documentation. This model reduces the technical and commercial asymmetries that have kept producers in a vulnerable position, selling cacao as an undifferentiated raw material with no access to specialized markets. CAPROS does not industrialize at large scale it coordinates, validates, and connects. It operates under a Triple Helix model, a strategic alliance between Academia, the Public Sector, and Private Enterprise, with presence across five regions of the country: Central-Western, Central-North, Paracentral, South-Eastern, and North-Eastern, with an initial target of channeling 15 tons of cacao through this network. The product portfolio it manages includes fermented and dried cacao, cacao nibs, cacao paste/liquor, cocoa butter, cocoa powder, and artisan chocolate. CAPROS also develops and commercializes ÍTACA, its own fine-flavor single-origin chocolate brand, crafted from acriollado trinitario varieties with a sensory profile of red fruits, panela, and a creamy finish unique to Salvadoran terroir. ÍTACA offers 65%, 75%, and 85% cacao bars with a clean label, roasted nibs, and high-purity raw materials, with export documentation ready for the United States (0% tariff) and Canada, under EXW El Salvador terms. CAPROS's technical approach is grounded in good agricultural and post-harvest practices, shade-grown agroforestry systems that preserve biodiversity and serve as biological corridors, progressive quality improvement, cacao territorial identity, and basic lot traceability all from a practical, verifiable standpoint, not a theoretical one. It also works on the genetic conservation of acriollado trinitario varieties, protecting ancestral heritage against the pressure of industrial strains. The projected business model distributes revenue across three lines: 70% from Salvadoran dried cacao bean sales, 20% from chocolate and derivatives, and 10% from training and technical assistance services. This structure allows CAPROS to remain financially sustainable while generating measurable social and environmental impact. The Triple Impact CAPROS pursues is concrete: increase producer family incomes by 30%, restore and regenerate 75 hectares of agroforestry systems, and create long-term sustainable value for rural Salvadoran communities — preserving the knowledge, cultural legacy, and genetics of Salvadoran cacao for future generations. CAPROS is currently in the fine-tuning phase of its pilot model: producers identified and supported, active commercial channels, and ongoing technical and academic validation. The company works with strategic partners and specialized personnel for specific tasks, while defining its operational and strategic model to scale impact responsibly. As a board member of the National Cacao Board of El Salvador, CAPROS has a voice in the country's sectoral policy, positioning itself as a key actor in transforming the Salvadoran cacao value chain: from subsistence to prosperity, from undifferentiated raw material to a product of excellence with identity, traceability, and real impact.
