We’re passionate about cacao. Where it’s grown, how it’s grown and who’s growing it.
We are discoverers of taste and quality
From unlocking new and remote territories to discovering fresh terroirs in established growing regions, we use our unique reach and expertise to uncover premium beans with a rich complexity of taste and quality. We have bases in all of the best known and most interesting areas where cocoa is found, and draw on farming partners’ years of local knowledge to help you understand the stories behind all of our cacao.
Sustainability and specialty cacao
Sustainable development is key to long term growth in remote regions, where people are often living below the poverty line, dependent on agriculture. Addressing social and environmental factors can help develop links and create partnerships across supply chains, directly from farmer to customer, and start to address systemic issues like education, capital access, and effects of climate change. It creates opportunities for rural communities to evolve to operate within agile business models, and we help them understand how to respond to rapidly changing conditions.
Investing in partnerships
Our efficiencies of scale mean that when we work with farmers, we can offer them support via investment into infrastructure, sustainable farming and research, and still be able to pay farmers a premium for their beans. Our customers get full traceability and transparency, at competitive prices, with no compromise to the farmer price.
