The aim of the study was, to determine the impact of influence of road transportation on distribution of cocoa product, analyze the profitability of cocoa production and determine the factors influencing the distribution of cocoa production in the study area. The data were generated by individual interview using pie-tested structured questionnaire. This was suppiemented by secondary data collection from different published and unpublished sources. Robust OLS regression econometric model was used to analyze the determinants of distribution variable influencing distribution of cocoa product in the study area. The results obtained from this analysis indicate that inadequate transportation facilities, poor road condition and high cost of transportation have a positive significance on the distribution of cocoa product in the study area. The correlation analysis indicates that the nature or condition of the road in the study area affect greatly the price of cocoa within the study area. The result shows a positive value which indicates a closely related relationship between the poor road condition and price of cocoa products, i.e. an increase in one of the variable will lead to increase in the other variable.
