# Shaping the Future of Agriculture: Leading Global Impact with ofi
Since 1996, our journey has evolved from humble trading roots to becoming a dominant force in the global agricultural landscape. Today, we bridge the gap between local harvests and the global market, sourcing premium cocoa, coffee, palm oil, nutmeg, and pepper from a vast network of over 400,000 farmers and suppliers. As Indonesia's leading exporter of Robusta coffee and a premier provider of Arabica, we command a significant 15% market share. Beyond our trading prowess, we serve as the country’s largest exporter of cocoa products, supported by our state-of-the-art BT Cocoa processing facility in Jakarta.
Our commitment goes beyond volume; it is rooted in empowering the smallholder communities that sustain our industry. Recognizing the challenges posed by climate change, we have implemented some of the most extensive sustainable procurement programs in the nation, ensuring that quality and yield remain resilient for future generations. With a dedicated workforce of 1,400 permanent employees and over 1,150 seasonal staff spanning from North Sumatra to the heart of Java and the landscapes of Sulawesi, we are building a sustainable legacy.
