National export support platform

A bridge between Bougainville and the world market.

Bougainville Export helps farmers, landowners and producers connect with international buyers and ensure that value flows back to the families who do the work.

Our Mission

Raise incomes, protect producers, and build a stronger Bougainville economy.

Our Focus

  • Cocoa, vanilla, coffee
  • Copra and coconut products
  • Fish and coastal products

Who We Serve

  • Village farmers and landowners
  • Women's and youth groups
  • Small cooperatives and fishermen

Why We Exist

For too long, producers in Bougainville have been selling their crops far below true value because of isolation, lack of information and unfair trading practices. Our role is to change that story.

For Farmers & Landowners

We exist so that your hard work is recognised and fairly paid. We help you understand real market prices, improve quality, and prepare your products for export so that buyers see Bougainville as a premium origin.

For Bougainville's Future

Every shipment that is fairly traded builds confidence, stability and revenue for our communities. Bougainville Export is one small but important part of a wider nation-building effort.

For Producers

Simple, practical support from your first harvest to final export.

Public Charter

A simple statement of how we work and what producers and buyers can expect from this platform.

Bougainville Export is a non-political, national initiative working alongside the Trade Commissioner's office to promote exports from Bougainville. We are guided by three principles:

  • Transparency – prices, fees and terms must be clear to all parties.
  • Protection – landowners, farmers and small producers must not be exploited.
  • Shared benefit – trade must strengthen families, communities and the wider Bougainville economy.

Brand & Identity

The Bougainville Export identity reflects land, ocean and value. It is simple and dignified for use on paper forms, phones and export documents.

Logo concept

A circular mark containing the outline of Bougainville island, with a small upward arrow inside representing growth, and two curved lines beneath symbolising ocean trade routes. The text "Bougainville Export" appears beside or below the mark in a clean, modern sans-serif font.

Core colours
  • Deep Green – land, forests, tradition
  • Ocean Blue – sea, trade, stability
  • Gold Accent – value, dignity, prosperity
