Sustainability And Impact
Traceability
- We believe that sustainability starts by knowing exactly where your products come from.
- Through our Sustainability Promise, we have put in place a full supply chain mapping system and can ensure a system where the products identity is preserved throughout the supply chain.
- To achieve this, we have limited the size of our Producer Unions in order to have closer and direct relationship with them.
Quality Commodities
- Because we adhere to strict production procedures and the agricultural cultivation principles of the commodity (cocoa production for example), we can obtain optimum product quality.
- For example, in cocoa; respecting harvest frequencies, fermentation durations, transport conditions, minimum and appropriate use of ONLY relevant chemicals (where necessary), etc.
Biodiversity & Livelihood
- Through our Sustainability Promise, we ensure that aspects of Child Labor and Forced Labor are eliminated. This is achieved through our team having direct relationships with farmers and continuous monitoring on the ground.
- Our Local Assistance Model also ensures that alternative sources of income are available especially to Women.
- Due to our strict adherence to cultivation principles, we ensure that Biodiversity is respected and strive to achieve deforestation-free supply chains.
