A presenter at a conference described the story of entrepreneur Sonia Yanahi as part of the Unidos exhibition, saying Yanahi "benefited from the Edip program, which is run by the ITP of Bahrain," and that she established the first chocolate franchise in Bahrain.
The presenter said the organization is supporting Yanahi with a business plan and "on the investment approach for her to acquire [a] cocoa plant in Côte d'Ivoire where she wants to employ local communities and make sure that there is transfer, fair share, and standards applied to the process of chocolate export." The presenter did not provide financial figures, timelines or specific partners for the proposed acquisition.
The speaker framed Yanahi’s story as one example among a campaign of 130 stories; the exhibition displays a sample of 60 women. The presenter positioned the entrepreneur story within broader exhibition priorities—sustainable supply chains, ending hunger, and clean energy—without detailing how the cocoa-plant plan connects to those priorities operationally.
No commitments of funding or concrete implementation steps were stated during the presentation.
