Said to be the only one of its kind in Malaysia, Teck Guan Cocoa Museum gives an insight into the history and development of the cocoa industry. This museum, located within the cocoa factory, has a range of exhibits such as fermented cocoa bean, shell, nibs and many more. The video screening gives more information on cocoa processing. Teck Guan Cocoa Museum is situated at Tanjung Batu Laut, on the west side of Tawau. Guided tours of the actual production process can be arranged.

The museum has a lot of information about the history of cocoa in Malaysia, particularly in Sabah. The Teck Guan plantation, located on a rich and fertile volcanic land called Quoin Hill, is where the first batch of Amelonado cocoa species was brought in from England by British officials in 1957.

With its attractive design and layout, the museum is the only one of its kind in Malaysia. Within the museum grounds, you will also find a cocoa processing plant and manufacturing factory, giving you an up close view of the production process. Various Hoko products are also available for purchase, from chocolate jam to instant hot cocoa beverages.

Visits are by appointment only. Please contact Mybarter JomTour! for booking arrangement.
