ADM has an annually grinding capacity of around 600,000 metric tons (MT) and accounts for 15% of global cocoa processing – third behind Barry Callebaut and Cargill. Potential suitors Pipitone said there was a range of potential buyers, but he ruled out Barry Callebaut due to its recent acquisition of Petra. "We are waiting to see if we have a new player or an existing processor. If it were to be Cargill they would become the largest player by far, but I don't think that will happen."
