Explanation: In 1905, on the initiative of J. K. Vietor, Togo Baumwollgesellschaft mbH, based in Lome, was founded with strong participation from Bremen. The company dealt with the gutting and packaging of cotton grown in Togo. The Deutsch-Westafrikanische Handelsgesellschaft, Hamburg, brought a plant for processing oil fruits into the company, which became independent in 1913 as Togo Palmölwerke GmbH. In 1914 both companies were confiscated and were forced to dissolve after the First World War.
