Creating a fair and sustainable cocoa sector
Our challenges related to the cocoa sector
The cocoa sector faces major challenges, which is why we are building our ambitions around three major axes:
- improving living and working conditions,
- protecting the environment
- preserving terroirs and flavor diversity.
Through our long-term partnerships, our knowledge of and close ties with cocoa farmers, our direct relationships with communities in 15 countries, we are committed to promoting fair incomes for farmers, fighting child labor, protecting forests and achieving carbon neutrality.
Every year, we improve our impact because we believe in empowering cocoa-producing communities. We know there is a long way to go but we are confident that we will be able to move things forward by working closely all players in the cocoa and chocolate sector
