The business enterprise is a Producer Cooperative Society because it is organized by independent producers to jointly source production inputs and market their harvested output.
A Producer Cooperative Society is established by independent producers, such as farmers or artisanal craftsmen, to pool their resources for purchasing raw materials or production inputs at lower costs and collectively processing and selling their finished output to achieve economies of scale.

Adım Adım Çözüm

The members are cocoa farmers (producers) seeking to purchase production inputs collectively and market their farm produce.
Identifying the target membership and core function determines the specific classification of cooperative society.
