World Coconut Day is celebrated annually on September 2nd to highlight the importance and benefits of coconuts. This day was established by the Asian and Pacific Coconut Community (APCC) in 2009 to promote awareness about the versatile uses of coconuts and their economic significance, especially in coconut-producing regions¹.
